I recently had an awesome experience working with Charlie Strout on some Azek synthetic decking to replace the steps and landing of the side stairs on my house. Pricing was very good, came in quickly and they even cut it to the lengths I needed. Charlie made sure I had everything I needed as including proper stainless steel screws and his guys helped load everything into my SUV in the rain. Customer service was friendly & excellent...and every thing they cut fit perfectly. I highly recommend Reading Lumber!

Careless installers…read more After the technicians came out to fix my Andersen windows, I emailed Missy Corelle detailing the issues. I waited five days with no response or call back, even though I confirmed the email was opened. Their complete lack of follow-up is unacceptable, and I will not recommend this company to anyone. Below is the email that I sent: "Hello, I wanted to share my recent experience with the window installation service on July 29, 2025. Unfortunately, it was far from positive. First, I found both installers to be careless. The younger installer literally ripped the valance off the blind and broke both brackets. It didn't appear that he examined how they were mounted before removing them. If he had been unsure, he could have asked me for help--I've removed that valance several times myself without issue. Not only did he break both plastic brackets, but he also never informed me. Instead, he jury-rigged it so it appeared intact. I discovered the damage when I tried to close the blind, and the valance fell. Secondly, the older installer dropped a hammer on my new end table, which we purchased just two weeks ago. I had placed a clear plexiglass top on it the previous weekend, which saved the table itself, but the plexiglass now has a dent. Again, this was never mentioned to me--I only noticed it after they had left. Both representatives appeared to be in a rush and did not treat my home or me with the respect that any customer deserves. It is important that I share this feedback so that you and your team can work towards creating a better customer experience for your future clients."

Donald you are a superstar and the Lowes in Woburn should be happy to have you. You are one in a million. We thank you so much. I will be glad to continue to give my business in Woburn Lowes.

7 Months. 2 Measurements. 2 Failed Installations. Still Not Done…read more If you are considering using Lowe's in Woburn for installation services, don't. My wife and I started a storm door project in August during their "free installation" promotion. We needed Larson storm doors and I clearly stated from Day 1 that the frames required a build-out. I was told this was routine and handled "all the time." That statement turned out to be fiction. Measurement #1: They missed the first appointment. Rescheduled for 10am the next day. Arrived at 1pm. I again explained the build-out requirement. It was not documented. Installation Attempt #1: Installer shows up and informs me: Two doors are bent and unusable. They were never told about the build-out. The porch rails might prevent installation. They drill holes into my front door frame and then leave. Zero completed work. We start over. Measurement #2: Different person comes out after I request someone with more experience. Photos taken. Build-out discussed again. Then comes the quote confusion. I'm told I owe roughly $500 more because the build-out wasn't properly carried over in the new quote. When I ask for documentation comparing the original and revised totals, I'm told the associate "doesn't want to do the math." I had to fight through their automated phone system for nearly an hour just to get basic pricing documentation. Seven months later, end of February, installers return. Installation Attempt #2: They immediately inform me the measurements AGAIN failed to account for build-out width and rail placement. Their proposed solution? Cut my porch rails and improvise framing. They also suggest relocating my house numbers "off to the side." At that point, I stopped the work. Seven months. Two measurement appointments. Two failed installations. Damage to my door frame. Incomplete project. This wasn't a complicated custom job. It was storm doors with a clearly disclosed build-out requirement from the beginning. The pattern here isn't a mistake, it's systemic incompetence between sales, measurement, and installation. I will be hiring an actual professional to finish the job. If you value your time, your home, and basic project management competence, do not use Lowe's installation services.

There were so many amazing options to choose from. We were greeted so warmly by several employees, and ended up working with Shannon, who was fantastic. She helped us finalize our choices, asked smart questions we hadn't even considered (like grout color), made thoughtful suggestions, and recommended an anti‑stain sealant for the tile we selected. We left feeling completely confident and excited about the selections--and I called her a week later and she still remembered us. For anyone curious, we chose: * Kitchen backsplash: Casablanca (Aqua) * Bathroom floor: Grespania Bolshoi Navy * Shower walls: Docklands by Grespania (Blanco) * Shower floor: Penny Round by Hyde We can't wait to see everything installed.
