We stopped by to get some metal for my son to practice his welding. The process was straightforward--you go to the counter to let them know what you need, then head out back to pick out whatever you want. Once you've selected the metal, you place it on a scale, then head back inside to pay. 1/28/25 read more

Very professional and knowledgeable. Mark went above and beyond to help me with my search. Their computer was down and he called me back as soon as it was back up. The service I was seeking was help with a specific product. The price he got for me was great. read more

My garage attic ladder hinge broke when I was pulling it down. I was in trouble. I couldn't get it back up. It was stuck in the down position. The hinge needed to be removed and welded with a new piece of steel. That calls for a trip to B&B surplus on Rosedale Highway. I haven't been here in a while. I forgot how big this business is. Gigantic super organized yard, any type of steel or special metal that you require they'll have it, even a small little job like mine. I went into the office. I was having a hard time finding what I needed. A salesman came out of his office and assisted me, we got a golf cart and went off to the area where the steel was. I found the 3/4" x 1/8" x 8' flat bar for my big job. We drove back to the scale weighed it went into the office and I paid for it. I would recommend going into office first instead of wandering around it's a busy place. Super friendly customer service great price at B&B Surplus thanks Ryan Hunnington I rebuilt the hinge and got the stairs back up in a couple hours thanks B&B read more

BEWARE **** B & B Surplus is VERY slow to their sub contractor truck drivers. They make up excuses and still pay 60 -90 days later

I hav ordered materials from B&B for years. It's just the best place to buy steel I have found in town. The service is good and they deliver! read more

My dad and I have been working on a few small projects around my property and we have needed to purchase sheet metal from B&B twice in the last two months. On both occasions, we have been treated with professionalism and respect despite being a couple of weekend warrior amateur types buying relatively small amounts of product. Don't be intimidated- this bustling steel yard is well suited for the hobbyist as well as the industry professional. read more

Came in here few times over the last month and had great results each time. I wasn't quite sure exactly the sizing I needed in flat bar at the time and I was able to go out and look for exactly what I needed. They cut the dimensions I needed and brought directly to my car out front. Process was super easy, very efficient and pricing was great. Staff was very helpful across the board. Stop going to places like your big box hardware stores when you have these guys right here and beat their prices too with tons of stock and sizing to choose from. read more

I live in Taft and thankfully B&B delivers to my house for FREE. They ask orders to be at least $100, which is totally reasonable, and their driver is awesome. Not having transportation is a pain in the butt, but they make my welding life possible. With a surge in both gas and metal pricing over the past year, they are no contest. I had 1 or 2 small discrepancies over the many orders I have placed and they always correct them immediately or the next day. Quality materials, quality service, quality company that truly cares about its customers. thank you, B&B for being awesome. It's been a while since I have ordered, but with a couple of projects coming up I will, of course, be looking nowhere else for supplies. - James S with the lil black Chipit on Center St :) read more

I order from them frequently for metal. My small business does some fabrication. Price-wise, they are ok. Service is great but then again - i'm a little more versed in the industry talk so communications is easier. The best thing about them is they have a really good selection of materials read more

Shorted my delivery load by 20% ( about $350 ) Was supposed to be delivered in the am - showed up at 5pm. On me to not catch it at that time. But trying to get out , I relied on them doing there job correctly ! Again - on me With a couple short calls - B an B left it 100% on me. Thanks for customer support read more

I hate to say, but I hope management takes note. I build things on occasion and the some people here always seem so put off by me buying a stick of 1" or a lock box. I think I've dealt with 5 or 6 of them, never friendly. A monotonous job for sure, but I'm not your enemy. I just need a little steel. read more

Whether you need a bunch of steel, for a big project , or just some remnants to modify existing structures/machines, this place gives good service. The will do custom cuts too, and the custom cuts while not free are very accurate and with thier big cutting machines, it is much cheaper than me paying my labor.The area up by the office has rack upon rack of remnants that are placed onto the scale and sold by the pound. They are usually a good value. I work in the area and have been dealing with B&B for at least 12 years. I would recommend them for your industrial metal needs. read more

I've been using these guys for almost ten years now. Amazing service, and always professional. Large or small orders, B&B takes care of you.

Great price, great service, great selection from small odds and ends to structural or pipe for large projects
