I hate to review this place only because I want to keep it my secret! I needed a replacement door for a kitchen cabinet and online and at Lowes they were about $100. Came here for the first time and the guys pointed me in the right direction to a rack full of unfinished cherry doors and told me $10 for any of them. This place is a hidden treasure trove if you know exactly what you need. Come with dimensions in hand and you will probably find what you need. Great for one off windows, doors, any kind of wood trim. They also have sets and one offs for kitchen/bath cabinets and some flooring. read more

Extra Building Materials - Cabinet doors galore! - Building Supplies Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Extra Building Materials was a great find! My husband and I visited there on 3/16/24. The service we received from Armando, Jorge, and Dylan was outstanding! We were looking for tile for our bathroom remodel. We not only found tile, but as we were leaving, my husband found a great deal on interior Kwiset door lever sets in ventian bronze. Needless to say, we purchased enough to replace all of our interior door knobs. This is NOT a place you can run in and out of quickly. If you have the time and patience to look through everything, you will find some great deals! We will be back! Kim read more

Extra Building Materials is a great catch all for all your random door, window and hardware needs. If you're willing to go hunting, you may find exactly what you need. Thus far we've bought a new, wider door for our bathroom (had to get the washer and dryer in), a large replacement window for our busted garage window and best find: 6 32"x60" new windows for $150 a piece. Expect that you won't get much help finding things, but the price is right and they'll help you load. read more

i've been here several times in trying to find the unusual--or the competitively-priced salvaged treasures which salvage yards have traditionally offered through the years. With this indoor warehouse, unfortunately, I've usually walked in and then out again, scratching my head over the system and service--which is nil. The last time, I was in quest of hardwoods, "Trim boards and dimensioned lumber," as I explained to the clerk whose desk guarded the main door in and out. He inisted I must be looking for hardwood flooring, and we argued for five minutes over that point. He finally showed me a large, but hopeless stack of wood, the boards of different dimensions and kinds of woods tossed on one another pell-mell--and no prices on anything. The clerk could offer no information on what was where and how much things cost. They seemed to have a lot of useless beech and such green woods, and very little like walnut and harder, more useful woods. Getting at anything toward the center of the pile appeared a hopeless forklift task--and you can't buy what you can't see. I wondered through the whole building looking for other needs, but no one would look my way or offer to help. I have found this business useless and the workers unfriendly. the only item I ever found to buy were two bathroom grab bars, and I ended up paying as much or more for these at the salvage store than than I might have at a hardware store or even bath outlet. Honestly, I'm mystified by all the positive write-ups for this business, and can only invite you to try the store and analyze its worth for yourself. Can my repeated tries have all been anomalies? read more

I love Extras Building Materials for doors, and hinges. I have been coming here for years because I have been renovating my house. The doors are very reasonable and you can get pre-hung or just doors. Today (12/24/19), I bought a hollow interior door for my basement bathroom and it was $15 + tax!! How can you beat that price??? It was a 30" primed door that I painted white and I would have to drill the hole for the doorknob and route the side out for the hinges, but that's not a big deal. The more common door widths already have the doorknob holes and hinges pre-drilled. The staff here is so nice and always so helpful. One time, I came needing cabinet pulls for my kitchen cabinets. I wasn't sure which length I had so the manager let me take 1 of each length home and said she'd see me tomorrow. Like who does that?? Of course, I came back the next day and bought the amount I needed in the correct length. Extras also sells tile, laminate flooring, windows, bathtubs, toilets, but unfortunately, I don't need those items. This is definitely the best kept DIY secret in Denver!! read more

I was on a quest for a new exterior door for the back of our house. Easy, right? Well, not so much. Affordably anyway! The home improvement store that sounds like Shome Fepot wanted over $250. (They don't sell just the door. They have the casing with them.) I drove to all the non-profit stores selling used building materials. Squat. Between Yelp and Google, I discovered Extra. The majority of their products are actually new and boy, the warehouse is chock full of all types of building materials! I worked with Cheryl who was so helpful! Armed with tape measures, we scoured through their vast inventory until wala! A door the exact size I needed was found. They pulled it and loaded that heavy thing in my Jeep. It was solid and weighty!! The cost? $40!! (happy dance) So next time you have that home project, head over to Extra and save some bucks! read more

See all

Developments are popping up in Denver, like acne pops up an a young adolescent boy's lip, and when contractors buy one to two hundred more kitchen and bathroom cabinets than they needed, they sell them to Extra Build, who in tern sells them to us, the hungry public. Extra Build is the place to come if you can claim that you are thrifty and sporadic enough to pick out our kitchen, bathroom or living room cabinets at the time you encounter the item. The stock may or may not come as a complete set and there are no more colors in the back. What you see is what they got and is what you get.... (fewww, try saying that one fast). The benefit of course, is brand new cabinetry sometimes 90% off. Things are not cheap here, but most of the items are brand new and in great if not perfect shape... don't come in here expecting layout ideas or combination examples, this is certainly no IKEA. This is a haven for flippers and or a great way to spruce up many different rooms in your house for a fraction of the budget. Great finds include bathroom sink pedestals, TV and living room cabinetry, and amazing interior and exterior doors, including screen and sliding doors for every room of the house. You can also be creative here and just go here to pick up goodies for artsy projects that may or may not have anything to do with your home, apartment or flip. About four months ago, I was on a mission for a way to make my own jewelry box. I was looking for a long wooden box that I could hang on the wall, cover the interior with velvet and screw nails into the wood so I could store my necklaces and earrings in it and feel like a princess when I opened it. Well, I definitely found what I was looking for, but I could never bare to spend the usual $75-100 fee for the wood itself. So, I guess I just went to kind of tease myself and see if I could find a screaming deal. That is where this place looses a star. Another project that you could do here is a mirror. You can find tons of wood scraps here, as well as framed wood or window-frames (glass free). Take a mirror of the same size, place it behind the frame and screw the wood together if necessary or attach it to the mirror. This will cost you hundreds less then what it would to purchase new, and takes less then an hour to make yourself. (I was going on a TLC rampage there.) * Star one is for being a gem in the industrial district off of I-25 ** Our happy star number two is for supplying the developers and contractors a safe place to make even more money and spare the landfills by dropping off their extras *** Mister Star three (Let's call him CocoaMo) is for providing a Green Resource: a place to find the "don't wants" of housing materials in perfect rehab-able shape **** Meet star number four, he is awarded to Extra Build for their huge selection and friendly young staff Poor star number five was stripped from the winner's circle because of Extra Build's sometimes high prices.... Regardless of how much they used to be.... It still seems expensive to me. (I wanted to end on a rhyme... now I just screwed it up). read more

We love to DIY and saved a TON of money on a basement remodel coming here. We also got 6 gorgeous solid wood shaker doors for less than $50 each for our 1920s bungalow. We spent several weekends sanding and staining the doors and trim we had to custom build due to unique height. The end result is gorgeous! Thank you for having a great variety at affordable prices!!!! read more

This place will nurture your inner scrapper. It's the Goodwill of building materials. Sometimes you'll find really great cheap stuff, sometimes not. Their model is to purchase surplus, odd-lots, closeout, or used goods which explains the inconsistency. Don't recommend purchasing stuff like paint or caulk...not a good return policy if it's no good. I purchased some liquid nails once that was nearly dried up. Female staff is rough-sometimes helpful, sometimes snarky (I usually look for one of the guys). It's a big dirty warehouse, not glamorous but worth the trip. They've recently improved merchandise organization quite a bit. If you need something, just have to take a chance and drive there. Don't bother calling, not that level of customer service. read more

This place is a huge warehouse of extra construction pieces. Doors wedged in racks like so many library books, piles of mismatched cabinets, sinks, prefab countertops, doorknobs, and several aisles of things I couldn't identify but my hubby found fascinating. Must be a guy thing. While we were renovating our house we gave this place a good once over to see if we could save some money by picking up some of the things we needed. While only a particularly awesome bathroom sink was up to our modern tastes, if we were flipping a house or had more traditional tastes, this place would be a goldmine. The sink, which we got for about $25-30, was at least $200 on the online retail site I was going to buy it from. If shabby chic is your thing, you could do really well here. Also, it should be noted you can haggle with these guys. A lot of the stuff doesn't have prices and they kinda seem to make 'em up on the fly, so feel free to do some wheeling and dealing. read more

This is, hands down, the best surplus building materials store in the DMA. It has any and everything, to include very helpful people working there. Like any store of this type, you have to be patient and check back often. They don't mind taking phone call inquiries about what they have on-hand. I hate to write this review, as I don't want the place to be swarmed with people but I also have to tip my hat to Extras. Anyone know where I can find 1000sqft of 2 1/4" x 3/4" T&G oak flooring? read more

This place is a-ok! Like a cheaper ReStore, and a better organized Veteran's GoGreen Warehouse (back when it was still around.) I love all the hand written signs everywhere. Kinda cute. If you don't mind mixing and matching, they have just what you need. read more

I called and spoke to someone who said they didn't know the inventory but to just come on in and someone would assist me in finding what I was looking for. Nothing crazy, just a simple door. When I got there the gentleman at the counter was less than helpful. I started to look around the store for someone else to help me. There were several employees doing this and that but no one was interested in helping me. read more

Look at this great front door! Only $200. and it's a Thermatru. I wish I wouldn't have just bought a new Thermatru back door at Home D ' Peau, for a sickeningly higher price. All the extra money could have been spent on fun stuff, like a limo for Halloween. read more

Extra Building Materials - Thermatru Front Door $200. - Building Supplies Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This is a building materials store. That means they have raw materials for tile, bathroom, wood construction and window-type projects. Its a LOT! They had hinges but plan to go elsewhere fixtures read more

This place is a fun place to cone if you are working on home remodel or do-it-yourself. The prices are not marked and i find that they vary greatly depending on who you ask. The only unfortunate part of this experience is the thin old gentleman who seems to be mad that you are there, mad that you are wanting to buy something and irritated to help you. I'm not sure if he owns the place since he seems to be a permanent fixture, or if he is just counting the hours to retirement..but if you actually want any help at all find ANYONE but him. You can find good deals, but you have to hunt for them. read more

A friend of mine recommended the store a few months back. We have purchased multiple barn doors and other little things. Overall, I think the store has good selection for a descent price. However, customer service is a zero. One time we were completely ignored while standing in check out line by associate Armando. He was having register issues and failed to even acknowledge us. After waiting for 15 min he finally asked what we needed we said we need to pay for 2 small screws. He just waved his hand and said take it. I decided he was just having a bad day that day. Today we were purchasing a door knob. The same gentlemen was at the register as last time. At the register he treated me like I am a thief. Opened the manual and compared each part with what is on the manual. If I wanted to steal a screw, I would not go up to the register Sir. Long story short, good selection of material, but customer service is lacking if there at all.. read more

great place to go for windows/doors,etc. Much higher quality products than home depot if you know what your looking for here, high end windows/doors that are mis-ordered wrong size etc from top Denver home remodeling companies end up here at fire sale prices, you need to spend time looking here and find size you need , save big! read more

I love this place. My husband and I bought our house and it needed a LOT of work. There was a cabinet door missing and we needed to find a matching replacement - there are tons and tons of cabinet doors here! And they're $10! Can't beat that deal. The selection is fantastic, and there's more stuff than you can dream of - floors, trim, moulding, doors, windows, sinks, faucets, locks, base cabinets, etc. It's like Disneyland. read more

Got what I was looking for and then some. I am finishing my garage and wanted to put cabinets up and build a workbench, BINGO, Extra Building Materials had matching cabinets to complete the job. I also found some other stuff I would need or could use around the house! I'll be back! read more

This is the spot for cheap high quality building materials. They have an extensive selection of parts, hardware, doors, and much more. The prices are great and the staff is very helpful. If you're remodeling and need to save money come here. read more

Amazing, awesome, rocks! If you like to tinker around the house or have projects to do, this place is fantastic. I just bought rough cut douglas fir, 1x6x12 for a buck a foot! The boards were straight, clean and perfect. I could spend 3 days in this place and still not comprehend the inventory - just great! Will be back, over and over and over again, because that's how projects go! read more

Super helpful, incredible prices on what I was looking for, some other items weren't as good price-wise though, but great for windows, doors, cabinets, trim, skylights, etc. I was looking for lumber and found some incredible deals, but their lumber selection was pretty small. read more

I love the items in this store. There is a great variety of things. The prices aren't the best, but are discounted from normal retail prices. The only negative I have to say is that the employees are not very friendly, in fact I found them a bit rude. If you can tolerate the rude employees, there are some good buys. read more

Says "feel free to give us a call" on their web site, DON'T! The lady I talked to was rude and not at all helpful. I only wanted to know if they had and 3' by 2' windows, not anything too crazy. I think it will be worth the extra $50 to get them from my lumber yard. Sounds like a great place if you live near by and have nothing else to do! read more

This place is great, much better then I've expected even after reading the previous reviews. Big selection of doors, molding, cabinet doors etc. The one thing that was disappointing to me, and i should have expected it, is that most of the hardware for bathroom, like towel rods, toilet paper holders etc were mostly in silver or gold, and we were looking for oil rubbed bronze items. And the reason i should have expected this simply because those are all leftovers from builders and the items they use in basic house is simple and cheep looking silver and gold. It's hard to find newly build house that has the high quality oil rubbed bronze hardware. Oh well... we were lucky enough to find only 1 toilet paper holder in bronze, and it cost us $5!!! How cool is that?! We also got some door handles, and there was plenty of them in bronze, cost us only $5 for regular knobs/handles and $8 for the ones with privacy lock. You can't bit that - in stores the prices go from $25 and up! The prices of 6 panel white doors are $15 - $20, not much of a difference from Home Depot - new doors like these go for $25 there. They also have latex paint there, pretty fresh, they promise it's not older then 5-6 months. We got 1 gallon of very nice color, by Glidden, and it cost us $8 - in Home Depot it goes for $20 per gallon. Of cause it's harder to get more of the same color, because it's all leftovers, but for a small project of 1 or 2 small rooms it's perfect and super cheep. I also need to note that all the items there are brand new, not used before. I was hoping to find some floor tiles, but no luck. They also have granite counter-tops for nice price. Couldn't find any lamps. They have plenty of all sort of knobs for cabinets and it different finishes. Tons of door hinges. We felt like in candy store - tons of goodies at unbelievable prices - check this place before you go to Home Depot or Lowe's, you won't find everything you need but you will save lots of money on many items. And remember, if you can't find it there on that day it doesn't mean they won't have it tomorrow - they always get new stuff. We'll be coming back next weekend with a rented track to pick up some doors and molding for our new house. Hopefully they will have new stuff in bronze. read more

I wish I had found this place a few years ago when I started major remodel projects on my house. Their inventory is well organized, and if you can't find something, their staff is friendly and helpful. The best part is their prices. Everything I purchased recently was about 1/3 the price of the same thing at Home Depot. read more

I have been shopping here for years and found fabulous things. You never know what they may have, so you need to stop by when you are in the area. Love it, love it, love it. read more

Very well organized, fair prices, and I like that they have a loading dock right at the storefront so that you can get loaded up in NO time

I known about this place since it's inception years ago and have watched as it has grown and grown and grown....all while never losing it's personal touch. I've used them a number of time doing a remodel on my cabin, finishing my basement then updating my house from the builders grade crap it started with to top notch sold core door and new kitchen cabinet... you get high quality for the same price as the cheap stuff.... It's kind like being able to shop craigs list prices and deal......but in a one stop convenient location. The store employees last a long time too (something I always notice) John has been there ever since the first time I dealt with them like ten years ago.....They get a bit busy sometimes but other than that minor complaint, this is the only place I use when I need doors, cabinets type building materials. They even have a custom mills shop but I've never used it myself. That's probably for professionals I assume... All in all the best kept secret in Denver that your contractor doesn't want you to know! read more
