“Fantastic Customer Service! This store has everything you need for a home project. They greet you as soon as you walk in and ask how they can help. On one occasion I needed something that was downstairs. When I mentioned this to the employee that was at the front desk they relayed the information to someone downstairs and the other employee had pulled it off the shelf and had it ready for me when I got downstairs. Speedy service with a smile. Thank you!”

“I bought some ICF forms here, that I couldn't find from my local suppliers. The price was fair, and they had a huge supply of other forms. I wish I would have known and I would have bought their originally. The salesperson and the yard guy were really helpful, and got me in and out in just a few minutes. I will consider them one making a purchase of a bunch of lumber.”
