This company is an absolute "SHIT SHOW" when it comes to their providing materials for new construction. You have ZERO idea of when you will get your orders. And when you finally do take delivery, don't be surprised at the amount of time it took as well as often times they are WRONG! They do not tell you, but they subcontract out door construction with absolutely no quality control. Anyone with any amount of construction experience knows what this leads to. DELAYS!!!!! Not one person has EVER taken ownership of the problems and/or apologized. Everyone living in todays world is enduring supply issues, but with Holmes it is over the top and in many cases self-inflicted. I highly encourage you to look elsewhere if you are a contractor as this is not isolated to myself. read more

Excellent service, Excellent staff, Qaulity material and specialty products. Prices are comparable and even BETTER than Lowe's or HomeDepot! I was amazed when I did an over all comparison. ITS A ONE STOP SHOP. Of course when construction is your business then it's important to know where you get the most for your money. read more

Make no mistake about it, they have the cheapest roofing shingles in town at $22 a bundle cheaper than home depot ( $27) and Lowes. Customer service is also great, every one is nice there. read more

Holmes has been great with our building process. Our windows and doors are all coming from them. Rhonda and Joel have been terrific, they have spent lots of time with my wife and I helping to guide us through the process. They are both very knowledgeable and patient. They have plenty to choose from and will help you to pick what fits best for your project not just what they want to sell you. read more

On the very first day of our remodel our contractor took us to Holmes to buy our interior doors. I was very excited to be getting started and I knew exactly which style of door I wanted and I was very happy to see that Holmes carried it. Although I knew the style of the door by sight I did not know that the style was Riverside. My husband, my contractor and myself were assisted by the owner's son, Matthew Holmes. I described the door and he showed it to me. We sat down to write up the order after discussing how many solid (which were special order) and hollow doors we wanted. A few weeks later I received doors I did not order, a French country style. I was very upset and called the store to try and rectify the error. Mr. Holmes would not take responsibility for the error. He kept insisting that I selected the French door style and changed my mind when they were delivered two weeks later. I was insulted and I am very angry. We have lost over $400 because of Mr. Holmes error and his inattention to detail. Legally we are at fault because my husband reviewed the order by email and approved it. My husband explained to Mr. Holmes that he only checked the order to ensure that the number of right and left doors were correct. He had no reason to check the style because we only selected the one and neither of us knew that the style we wanted was Riverside. I am still confused as to how this happened as we did not choose from a variety of doors, JUST ONE. My husband and I are not wealthy people and the refund of the $400 would have helped us in other areas of our remodel. I am positive that Holmes would not have lost any money. They will probably stock them in the store and someone will buy them which means that Holmes will be paid twice for the doors. The door frames for the doors that we did finally receive are of very poor quality. We couldn't tell until they were painted and installed that they have cracks, holes and broken pieces. I know that this review will not have any affect on Mr. Holmes or the store, but I felt it necessary to express my experience. read more

Update to 12/18 review. Manager did not return my call/message by end of business day (6 hours later). Had to call again and demand to speak to a manager before finally learning that frame had arrived. Although I finally got a new door frame for door and it came assembled, I had to uninstall door from old frame, flip hinges and window insert on door and install it in new frame. No one at Holmes ever apologized for their mistake that cost me time and money. Instead they seemed to go out of their way to make entire process as difficult and frustrating as possible. When I went to pick up frame, once person behind desk finally found my paperwork I was told to follow him with no explanation. Wound up standing outside manager's office like a schoolboy at the principal's. Only words manager said to me were "You pay for this yet?" I explained frame was supposed to be at no cost to fix their error (this was noted on the paperwork and this was the same manager I had spoke to the previous afternoon). Manager did not reply to me. Eventually he signed paperwork and went back into his office. Think that pretty much speaks for itself with regard to Holmes' customer service. read more
