Across the bluestone sidewalk. Literally next to a driveway which I would have happily let him pull into. I asked the driver if that didn't look like someone's yard to him and I got a lot of blank stares and platitudes. These folks have terrible reviews and I could pretend to act surprised if you want me to but honestly I'm not. I thought about calling into the office with my complaint but based on the other reviews here I'd just be wasting my time. Hoopleheads.

Located at the Kingston Plaza in Kingston, NY, we came here for a color stain for raw pine doors we'd purchased at a door store. Herzog's is big- not Home Depot big- but it's got a lot of what you may need for home repairs. They carry lighting equipment, painting items, a kitchen+ bathroom design dep't, textiles, BBQ accessories, vacuum cleaners, gardening supplies, candles, some clothing- heck, even minimalist jewelry in a glass case, etc. My girl with the glasses in the paint department was smooth and patient. She took her time when we asked her questions about colors and how each color stain would react to raw wood. Service was fine, we left with smiles and was the opposite of everything that's been written here in the past. Whether you're working with a contractor like we are or you're one of those Do-It-Yourselfers, this is your place.

They do, however, seem motivated to: 1) Get off the phone with you as quickly as possible. 2) Send you to another department before you even finish what you are asking--or say "no," as quickly as possible, regardless of whether they are correct or not. At least they let you linger because they do sell lots of DIY equipment and materials...but with a "DIY mentality," ie find it yourself. Special call out to the Yelper who mentioned being sold a discontinued stain: 100%. Same thing happened with me with a marble sample.

Always found them to be very patient and helpful. The hardware store always has what I need. I used the lumber yard for a deck, with no issues. The prior review complained about handyman references. This is the Catskills. I've gone through roughly a dozen folks here. They all came recommended. They all were a huge disappointment - some after a few jobs, some after one. I've learned never to pay half up front without references, and I've posted to social media those folks who take half up front and disappear. Sadly, it has happened a couple of times. It's not the fault of the establishment thst recommended them.

There isn't so much wrong with Williams Lumber as there is with their recommendations of…read morecontractors. I relied on them to refer me to a contractor to do a roof repair on my home and they only provided me with two names. I went with Joe Remley- Builder/ Contractor or Ashland, NY and it turned out he was not such a good reference. In fact I had an awful experience. Remley required that I give him a down payment of several thousand dollars to have my roof repaired. I paid Remley the money he wanted and never saw him again. He didn't do any of the work he was supposed to do and has not been responsive to phone calls. Joe Remley is not directly affiliated with Ace Hardware/ Williams Lumber, that I know of, but I relied on Ace Hardware/ Williams Lumber to provide me with a reliable contractor and he wound up ripping me off and scamming me out of thousands of dollars with no work done. This is more of a warning to others to watch out for Joe Remley and to not put so much trust into Williams Lumber for contractor references. Very disappointed.

I've been getting lumber and hardware at Woodstock Building Supply for 4 years now. It isn't the…read moreclosest or least expensive, but I've gone there because it was pleasant and even fun most of the time. A few days ago, however, I had the single worst experience taking a lumber delivery in over forty years of taking such deliveries. The delivery person, who identified himself as Abdul, was abusive, aggressive, and physically threatening. Whether he misheard my response when he asked where I wanted the material, I can't say, but he got out of the truck and walked thirty feet to get nose to nose with me and tell me to "back off." He refused to offload the material, opting to continue his diatribe and threatening demeanor, until I had unloaded half of it. I attempted to call the office during this and was unable to get through. I called afterward and left a message for Chris to please call me to resolve this episode, but heard nothing back. I called three more times, and each time Abdul answered the phone and informed me that Chris was "indisposed." I called again and managed to get Chris on the phone, and when I explained the incident, his initial response was defensive and essentially telling me that I was obviously mistaken because they've never had a complaint. I explained that I've dealt with their organization many times with great results and this was an outlier, and he relented somewhat and said he was "hearing me and talking it very seriously" and that he'd look into it and get back to me. It has been over a week and no "getting back to me" has occurred. The bottom line for me here is that Woodstock Building Supply charged me fifty dollars to deliver five sheets of plywood (total charge was $537) sent an aggressive, confrontational, abusive, emotionally unstable person to my home, and now refuse to be accountable to a paying customer. Paying for abuse? No thanks.
