Building Canadian: How to Source Local Construction Materials in 2025

With escalating U.S. tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber and other construction materials, many homeowners and builders in British Columbia are seeking ways to mitigate rising costs. One effective strategy is to prioritize sourcing Canadian-made construction materials. This approach not only supports the local economy but also helps maintain affordability in home construction and renovations.

Several Canadian companies are leading the way in providing quality, locally sourced building materials. For instance, Taiga Building Products, headquartered in Burnaby, B.C., is one of Canada’s largest independent wholesale distributors, offering a wide range of products including lumber, panels, and insulation. Similarly, Doman Building Materials Group Ltd. supplies a broad range of quality building materials across Canada. 

In addition to large distributors, local suppliers play a crucial role. Pro-Line Construction Materials, based in Surrey, B.C., has been serving communities for over 20 years, providing roofing, insulation, waterproofing, and wall systems. POCO Building Supplies, a fourth-generation family-owned business in Port Coquitlam, offers a variety of construction materials and home improvement products. 

At Rely Construction, we are committed to utilizing Canadian-made materials to the fullest extent possible. By partnering with local suppliers and choosing domestically produced products, we aim to keep construction costs manageable for our clients during these challenging times. This approach not only ensures quality but also supports Canadian businesses and the broader economy.

If you’re planning a construction or renovation project in 2025, consider the benefits of sourcing Canadian-made materials. At Rely Construction, we’re here to guide you through the process, helping you make informed choices that align with your budget and values.
