I realize that some people cant be satisfied or pleased but I am not one of those people. Went in there today to pick various supplies. The counter help was not helpful at all. Almost got the feeling I was interrupting their day. They looked like they were in low gear. Finally after paying for overpriced green 2x6 boards and fair priced 4x8 siding sheets I drove around the corner to load up. There was a pickup w/trailer being loaded with plywood so I waited for the kid on the fork lift to get done and casually drove past the other rig and pulled up far enough so the fork lift could get by with another load, if needed. When I got out to load my hardboard siding the fork lift driver stopped and I said I hoped I left plenty of room for him too. The fork lift driver said , in a snotty voice, that I was partially in a no parking zone then the turd stood and watched me preparing to load the siding,,,,,,,,,,,by myself. The customer being loaded with plywood jumped over there and offered to help me. Meanwhile, that inconsiderate fork lift driver stood a couple feet away and didnt offer any help or lift a finger. First time there and will NEVER go back and will tell everyone I know what terrible service this place has.

This place is HORRIBLE! Would have given them 0 stars but you cant. I have been in a few times and the owner (i am told his name is gene) was rude beyond belief. Ordered a window for a remodel, was told it would be in on a certain date, called to check and it was delayed by a week. Was told this was my fault because timeline included a holiday. This wasnt mentioned when I ordered the window and when they assured me it would be in on June 10th. Had a contractor waiting for the window and this delayed the whole job. No apologies, no trying to make it right, nothing. The owner basically blamed me even though they told me when I ordered the window it would be in on the 10th. If I could have gone somewhere else to get the window I would have but by then we had already waited for it through them for two weeks.

We love shopping here, everything and I do mean everything is at least 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the big box stores, sometimes their prices are more than 1/2 of other places. We were shopping for Windows and had gotten quotes from lowes and home Depot for a custom odd ball size to replace our old single pane aluminum frame windows. I knew they carried a few sizes so we went there didnt find our size,out of complete curiosity I asked if they did custom orders...wound up getting the same exact windows for 1/3 the price of big box stores... How they do it I dont know. Customer service is always great my wife has gone there and they always help her load materials into the van...awesome place recommend to all. If you dont see what you need just ask they can get just about anything!!

I use these guys for countless projects, personal and business and they are fabulous. Whether it is a special order, custom mill or something off the warehouse floor, they never fail to impress. We have them special mill molding for our business, have had them special order countless products for our custom home and Ive been so impressed with the whole team as well as their pricing. I think theyre the best supply company in Salem.

I went to this location to check out their prices and they werent too bad. As I was sorting through some fencing for the best quality pieces the owner had the audacity to request that I clean up my mess. Bad customer service. Needless to say, Ill be taking my business elsewhere.

I have used this company twice so far and the customer service and pricing was great, even though it was a year apart the sales clerk remembered me. It wasnt an act he remembered where he made the delivery to by describing my place.

Been going here for years for my business. Its nice to see employees that are real people, not acting for the sake of the business. Its like walking into your buddys shop.

First and last visit today. Went in for paint and window pricing. They cashier was rude to say the very least. prices on the windows were higher than big box stores.

The lumber is OK quality, but the service was atrocious both times we were there. In fact, the second time we just gave up, put the boards back, and drove away.
