Budget Lumber

Bit outdated, grouchy and they only take cash. Prices aren't bad and they're open Saturdays.

I have shopped here a couple of times because it was close. I dread going in because they definitely are unfriendly, unless a man comes in then they act differently, they are slightly nicer. The last time we got wood there it was cedar and was really expensive. When my husband unloaded the wood we noticed it was in pretty bad shape, it looked like seconds but the price was for primo quality. Today we drove by and the sign outside at the road expressed their personal political view, I think that is really bad PR, I think politics should be left out of your advertising and business. We definitely will never go back there and will advise friends and family not to do business with them.

Yesterday I went to Budget Lumber for a few 2x4’s for my garden shed. I was met by a worker, yard worker I suppose, who was very abrupt and obviously not really wanting to be an ambassador for the company. I asked if they have utility 2x4’s, to which he replied “yes”, I asked to see them, then asked if they were good or bad utility 2x4’s and he replied, “dude they are utility 2x4’s”. I understand what utility lumber is, just wanted to know it they were really bad. He pointed to the pile and I commented these aren’t to bad. I picked one up and he immediately commented, “you have to take off the top, broken ones, or warped off the top.” I asked why would I take a broke or warped board I can’t use. I went inside to price check #2 and better. I realized there where two dogs inside and I had my dog so I had to secure him. When I came back in it was obvious the yard worker had voiced something to the counter worker. They both looked at me. I directed my question as to price to the counter worker and the yard worker commented “310”. Since I wasn’t talking with him wasn’t sure what he saying. I again asked the counter work and the yard worker again commented “310” I asked if he was quoting the price of #2 and better, looked the the counter worker and they smirked at each other and he said “yeah”. I go into theses details as it it very disappointing this business allows these type of workers to be their first contact with consumers. The sad part is I live in the area and frequent this business as it is close and prices are fair. However after this exchange I will be taking my business across town to their competitor. Very sad!

I give all of these folks five out of five. They have all done a tremendous job of providing great material and customer awareness while looking at my deck project and some helpful hints always keeping in mind how to deliver a great project at a fair price. Thanks for the help, co-operation and good delivery service Terry
