In 2011, Brooke Crowell was at a crossroad. He was well-into a physically demanding career with Efficiency Nova Scotia and wanted a job that was more in-line with his age that would, in his words, “pay a decent wage.” After a year of introspection and research, Crowell was his own boss: the private owner of Timberlea Tire in Timberlea, Nova Scotia. It was a practically organic transition for Crowell: “I have been changing tires on-and-off since I was 15-years-old, so I took the plunge and it paid off.” Five years on, Timberlea Tire offers clients the best services, products, and prices in the Halifax area and a mobile fleet service in Atlantic Canada.
