History
Established in 1939.
Since Dennison Rice founded the business in 1939, we have been committed to delivering quality products and service to both commercial contractors and homeowners. Originally established to provide lumber and building materials, Rice Lumber has grown alongside the needs of Vermont’s building community.
In 1970, Wes Carroll, Deek Brooker, and Fred Disperto took ownership, guiding steady growth. Fifteen years later, Wes Carroll became sole owner, reinforcing a commitment to customer service and long-term relationships. In 1992, the next generation, James, Shelley, Jay, and David Carroll, stepped in to carry the business forward with a deep understanding of the local industry and a dedication to excellence.
Today, Rice Lumber is more than a lumber yard. We are a one-stop shop for building. From framing to finish, we supply materials for the entire home, including lumber, siding, roofing, flooring, windows and doors, decking, and railing.
