About Us - Overview

Let's talk about tradition!

Bretts has been part of the Queensland building landscape for almost a century. Founded in 1913 on the present site of the Bretts Timber & Hardware store at Newmarket Road in Windsor, our trade and retail business specialises in unique products within the building industry. We currently display Queensland's largest range of door furniture, specialist paint and timber products.

Historically, we have been timber-based and the Inglewood Cypress sawmill is still a major component of our business. However, Bretts also imports, exports and wholesales timber and panel products, as well as manufacturing a complete range of aluminium doors and windows and timber frame and truss products.

Today, Bretts draws on the experience and knowledge built up over 95 years to offer customers comprehensive advice and a different hardware experience. More than just a store, Bretts is a Brisbane institution. While flexible enough to diversify where necessary, our company sticks rigidly to values that reflect the importance of tradition, quality and family.
