    Was excited to find a lumberyard open on weekends that wasn't Home Depot. Got there, and the people…read morewere very friendly and helpful for the basics, but I wouldn't go there to ask actual technical questions about wood or building. I did going expecting it would have a better selection of lumber at better prices than Home Depot. Unfortunately, that was not the case. They had a lot of wood suitable for construction but not for woodworking. They really had only one type of plywood with any kind of nice surface. Mostly have OSB, CDX, and only one type with a sanded finish. And that was almost $10 more per sheet than what I could get at Home Depot. No Birch or other quality plywood ether. I did purchase about 4 sheets just to check them and then went to Home Depot and got the remaining 11 sheets I needed. It was less expensive and there was significantly more choice for plywood other than OSB, CDS, etc.

Her communication was absolutely outstanding! Her friendliness is very hard to come by when it comes to retail especially with the effort she puts into for her customers! I would highly suggest coming here due to Rens service! She deserves the most and a promotion is the least they can do for her to show their appreciation and support for such an incredible employee that's an asset to the company!

    Ive been looking for copper downspouts for a some time to dress up my Eichler. Since I embarked on…read morerepainting the whole house, this search took on an increased urgency. I had found some luck but the places were all on the East Coast. Needless to say the shipping costs (almost 3X the cost of the material) made it a non starter. But as luck would have it I was able to find Korbet right in my own backyard. First off the customer service experience was excellent. Prompt call back after I submitted for a quote from their website. John was friendly and even offered a few suggestions since I am not a professional and I'm doing this myself. Got the quote witin minutes, came down and they had all of my stuff ready to go. loaded it up and the ten foot downspouts were pushing it but my MDX was just barely able to load them internally. Best of all no horrendous shipping charges. They have more copper than you can shake a stick at from gutters, to downspouts and all manner of stuff in between. Like a 500 foot roll of sheet copper. They also seem to have a full line of zinc realted products as well. If you are in the need for copper or other metals I would give KM a try.

    It is our first time doing home improvement and buying windows and doors. Our knowledge is very…read morelimited. However, Shawn is amazing!! He walks us through and he explains everything in details to let us understand what the options are and why certain options do not meet our needs. He is quick and responsive. Even when I change the size last minute after I just put in order, he is so patient and nice to ask the window/door company for the change for me. He also explains the process of delivery and let us be aware of what to expect and what to avoid when we receive the package. Thank you Shawn!! I will definitely recommend him to my friends and anyone who needs help with finding a good fit to their home.

Calling our contractor to complain about an honest review, after many unanswered calls/texts/emails for the refund, isn't a good look. --- Our contractor sent us here to look at doors. We did look at what they had but when I asked about custom options for things like wood color and lite options, the sales person just told us to look at options on the manufacturer websites. We spec'ed out our door from the manufacturer website of the one we liked from their showroom, ordered it in October. They installed a temporary blank door on our addition so we would have a secure entrance to our home. I think we had it by December, and our painters applied multiple beautiful clear coats to this beautiful cherry door, but when it came time to install it, it was discovered that FMD milled the hinges in the wrong place, even though they had the measurements for placement from installing the temporary door. There would have been stucco work and painting to the new construction to make the wrong hinge placement work, so they reordered the door. 6 weeks was their estimate, should have been mid April. End of May we finally received the replacement door after weeks and weeks of "next week" and "by the end of the week", and immediately noticed upon delivery (which was last minute, outside of business hours, lucky I was home to receive it!) there were problems. There were extra holes drilled on either side of the hinges, 6 total, filled in sloppily with non-matching filler, like meant to match oak or something, not the cherry door. Apparently it was for the hinge template? The first door we received did not have these holes... "Staining/painting you won't notice." except we aren't staining or painting this beautiful cherry door we paid a premium for! I probably could have lived with it if they fixed the filler to match, it's just on the side by the hinges and waiting another 3 months for yet another replacement door wasn't what I wanted to be doing, but they messed up milling the holes for the handle and lock, there were 1/2 inch chips of wood removed from the top layer finish of the door, beyond what our door handle would cover up. They had ruined a gorgeous $5300 door. Our contractor returned the 2nd door they messed up, and they happily took it, but then ghosted him as he tried repeatedly (call, text, email) to get the actual refund for the returned door...it's been weeks. Oh and they delivered one of our interior doors with a large hole in it, like they had dropped it or something, and refused to accept the return ("you accepted delivery, you probably damaged it!"). We had purchased an additional 6 premium interior doors from them and that was the customer service they treated us with? Bridge burned, our contractor got that interior door remade by a different distributor. Stay away from them. Their customer service is awful, their workmanship is terrible, they are flaky and unreliable with their timelines.
