I felt it was imperative to write this review, and offset the single 1 star review from 2015, as…read morethis lumber vendor was the absolute best to work with. I am an amateur when it comes to carpentry and home renovation, but I have a generalized knowledge of woodworking tools and various basic materials. My goal was to revamp an old porch. I walked nervously in their door, with a picture of the old porch on my iPhone and a few rough measurements scribbled on a piece of paper. Immediately, Kathy and Kate put me at ease, and walked me through my design plans. Along the way, Kate thoughtfully listened to my needs, and carefully recommended different ways I could improve my design, without criticism or judgement. All her ideas proved to be excellent, and I'm so grateful for her advice. Over the course of the next two weeks, I would return many times for extra lumber as my plans evolved. Every time, I was warmly greeted, and immediately and thoughtfully accommodated. I am very grateful to the gentlemen in the back who helped fit many an odd long board in my dad's Camry, and to the one kind employee who, on an especially hot day, offered me a popsicle while I was waiting for something to be cut. Overall, my experience was over and above excellent, and with their help, I managed to build the new porch by myself in only 2 weeks! Their prices are affordable, their store is immaculate, and their customer service was top notch. I can't wait for the next project!

They offered the product by requested sizing at an excellent price and provided a quality delivery and uneventful off loading. Last month I returned to purchase mahogany decking boards to matched some of the product I previously purchased from them.

They are nearly an hour from my house, but they are so worth the distance to do business with. You can walk in or place the order over the phone. I've done both without issue. Everyone there goes out of their way to make your purchase and project go off without a hitch. Can't thank you enough and highly recommend their lumber yard for all of your related needs. Apologize for the late reviews. Tis the season to be grateful.

Elizabeth, the color specialist (?), took such good care of us. And she was just lovely to deal with. We have relied on Steve and his good advice for years as we have painted and re-painted the rooms in our house. The difference in having a store like this, as opposed to having to google answers to my questions - to help out the folks at the big hardware chains - is what makes "shopping local" the treat that it is. Please be kind to our home town merchants. Not every visit is perfect (I read some other comments) but we are so lucky to have options outside of the big box stores. Small businesses truly deserve our support!

We spent well over $100,000 at Hingham Lumber for home reno materials, including a full set of…read morekitchen cabinets. Going to Hingham Lumber for kitchen cabinets was a horrible experience and a big mistake. The Hingham Lumber designer mismeasured for more than half the cabinets had them made wrong. Rather than fixing their mistakes, the HL designer and cabinet department manager stonewalled us and the manager subjected me to verbally and physically abusive behavior. Due to the HL designer's mismeasurements, an entire wall of cabinets was not long enough to fit the space. To avoid weeks of delay, we agreed to adjust the placement of cabinets in our kitchen rather than having these cabinets redone. Also, the upper cabinets on the same wall didn't line up with the lowers as they were supposed to. We had repeatedly told the HL designer our design and space required they line up. When, after installation, we found the upper cabinets didn't line up, the designer said that - regardless of what we wanted - she had deliberately designed the cabinets to not line up because it was "customary". Again, to avoid weeks of delay, we agreed to have only one upper cabinet at the end remade with an extended section on one side. Because of Hingham Lumber's mistakes our kitchen doesn't look as good as it should have. The HL designer also mismeasured three lower cabinets that had to fit together between a wall and a load bearing post. They were too long to fit in the space. She told us to have our contractor cut into the load bearing post to deal with her mistakes! The HL designer ordered a back panel for these cabinets that was too long, with completely wrong trimwork. The crown moldings for the cabinets didn't arrive with the rest of the order. The HL designer said she forgot to order them. Then it got worse. The HL designer scheduled a revisit to our home. When she came, she brought a man she introduced as the manager of the Hingham Lumber cabinet department. Together, the HL designer and manager tried to blame our contractor, and then us, for the designer's mismeasurements. I reminded them the HL designer was the person who measured for and ordered the cabinets. Then, the six foot four male manager (more than a foot taller than I) suddenly stepped forward to stand toe-to-toe with me. His face turned red, he shook his finger right in my face and he shouted that Hingham Lumber wasn't going to pay to redo the cabinets they had mismeasured. I told the HL manager to move away from me, but he didn't. My husband shouted at him to get away from me, but he didn't. I had to start to step forward to get him to step back and finally get away from me. The HL manager finally agreed to take responsibility to have 4 of the 11 mismeasured cabinets remade. He said it would take four to six weeks to deliver them. The HL designer had previously told us it would take two weeks for delivery if any items needed to be remade. I asked the manager if his longer time period was in retaliation for me refusing to accept his bullying. He didn't answer. A week later, when we'd heard nothing from the designer, we contacted her. She hadn't even ordered the replacement cabinets. A week after that, a Hingham Lumber employee called us. This HL employee wanted to know if we were going to file action against Hingham Lumber regarding their manager's behavior. This HL employee then said any idea the designer and manager had acted inappropriately was only my "perception". I told him there were witnesses to the HL manager's behavior. He then asked me what I wanted. I said I wanted Hingham Lumber to order the cabinets that had to be remade right away and give a delivery date so our contractor could schedule his time. I also said I wanted Hingham Lumber to reimburse us for our contractor's charge for having to install cabinets a second time. Hingham Lumber still didn't order the replacement cabinets we needed. In desperation, I contacted the cabinet maker, Tedd Wood, directly. I asked for Tedd Wood's help in getting the cabinets we needed. Within 48 hours of my call to Tedd Wood, Hingham Lumber finally agreed the corrected cabinets would arrive timely and gave me a delivery date. (Thank you, Tedd Wood!!!) Hingham Lumber has never reimbursed us for the extra contractor fee we paid for Hingham Lumber's mistakes. Instead, the store billed us for $700 (plus interest) for miscellaneous cabinet parts, including some which arrived long after the cabinets were installed. This amount is far less than the extra fee our contractor charged us for installing the cabinets twice. Neither the store owner nor any of the HL employees involved ever apologized to me for the verbally and physically abusive behavior of the HL manager. We're now considering whether to take action to collect the contractor fee Hingham Lumber owes us and more, since Hingham Lumber seems to care more about avoiding the consequences of their bad behavior than treating their customers well and fairly.

The salesperson did not proactively notify of when successive deliveries would be made nor did they apologize for our many inconveniences over a week's time. This includes holding up the start of the job by our contractor. No apologies, no offer of a credit - a very rough ordeal for trying to patronize a local merchant.

Updating my previous review in 2025. I'm now a returning customer at Boston Stone Works and Mona is…read morestill awesome. I did a partial kitchen reno and needed to match the existing quartz counters that Mona's team installed last time. Ran into a problem: they didn't have any remnants in that color, and I'd have to purchase a whole slab just to match a little section. Mona came to the rescue! She offered me a remnant of a different color that she promised matches really really closely the original color. And since the new section was to be installed across from the old one (not contiguous), it would be very hard to tell. Sure enough, it worked out perfectly and Mona saved me a lot of money by finding a creative solution. Just like last time, I was doing this long distance without seeing anything in person. With contractors there is always drama or miscommunications, especially if you are not there to supervise. Not with Mona. Her reliability, attention to detail, and smart problem-solving in every project, no matter how small, give me total peace of mind. And the prices are still very reasonable, even years later! Thank you so much!

You'll really like him, was in all fairness an understatement.The way David worked with us, communicated with us, as well as researched and tracked down stone, brick, granite with various sources for/with us was as if he was doing this for himself or his own family.

We don't just like him, we really, really like and appreciate him! When we had a question or wanted to change something, it was easy to communicate with him, and never a problem. David really listens to what you are asking him. The way he worked was very methodical and works cleanly. Anytime observing him work, it was clear that his skill level impressive. Did I mention he cleans up everything? :) In addition I just wanted to mention that we especially were impressed the way David employed many so many more skills along with his masonry work . We are really happy with how our multi- faceted project turned out. He worked straight through the November cold, is totally reliable and a gentleman. You get a fair and honest good value from David. He was a pleasure to have him work at our home. So much so, that we look forward to have another project done by him in the Spring. I hope you have such a good experience with your project as we did with ours. All the best, Nancy T.
