Recently, I was searching for a very specific item and called ahead; the manager had it prepared up front, and they kindly offered to bring it to my car. The store is always clean, and they consistently have the best plants in town. Great store!”

“I have begun to rely on Lumber Barn Building Supplies regularly for tools and equipment for my gardening business, truck maintenance, and interior paint for my house, and they’ve consistently gone above and beyond in ways you don’t expect from any old supply store. One time I brought in my Milwaukee mini chainsaw because I wasn’t thrilled with its cutting performance. As soon as I finished describing the issue, one employee picked it up and exited the store, walking all the way across the lot to the nearest tree by the road to give it a try himself! On another visit, I was looking for lime-wash paint, an uncommon product. After confirming they didn’t carry it, an employee checked online and directed me to Home Depot, which had it in stock that day. That level of honesty is rare and much appreciated. They carry an impressively broad selection and I really appreciated that they test equipment at the time of sale to make sure everything actually works as they did with the backpack blower I purchased there. Knowledgeable, practical, and personable, the staff at Lumber Barn have earned my trust and my repeat business.”
