As a novice DIYer I had a pretty good experience communicating with them for my project needs…read more Right before they moved out of Manhattan I was able to visit the facility and get a physical sense of what lumber they had to provide. The representative was very frank and straight to the point, so there weren't any concerns of upselling. Initially my gf and I were apprehensive about going to a service in Manhattan because of pricing reputation but we were very surprised and pleased by the quoted price. We needed a 11.25"x24"x1" and was quoted $26. By comparison, Home Depot machines can't cut below 12" and a comparable size would've been around double in price. Sometime went by before we confirmed and their establishment had moved to Jersey. Concerned we had to find a new store for a custom service, we contacted them through email and they deliver throughout nyc. The delivery was about $10 and worth it for the sheer point of not carrying lumber on the train. All in all, they'll be my first choice in the event I need another custom job

I live in the neighborhood and have shopped here for ten years but I'm done. I needed to replace a…read moreburned-out $5 300W halogen lightbulb. I came here to pick one up a few days ago and was advised instead to buy a 150W bulb because 300W would be too bright. Brought it home, installed it, and it didn't work. No big deal. So I came back to return it today - in the middle of my workday, because their hours are so restricted. In a normal store, you just switch out the defective bulb; quick and dirty. Not here - the clerk's aggressive line of questioning made clear he didn't trust me in the least. Clerk: How do you know the bulb doesn't work if you didn't open the package? Me: The package is open - see? You just didn't see where I tore it open. Clerk: Did you touch the bulb when you were installing it? Me: No, I wore gloves like you're supposed to do. [Clerk pulls out a massive magnifying glass to read the fine print on the back of the package.] Clerk: Aha! It says here, 'Do not install if the lamp is hot.' Was your lamp hot? Me: No. I was replacing a bulb that burned out days ago and the lamp hadn't been used. [Clerk walks to a shelf and picks up a utility light that uses a similar bulb. He spends several minutes opening it up but doesn't test the defective bulb in it. He pulls out the 500W bulb that was packaged with the utility light.] Clerk: Do you just want to take this bulb? Me: No, that's a 500W bulb and my light is a 300W light. Clerk (triumphantly): What? Then why'd you buy a 150W bulb? (Waves defective bulb in the air.) Me: Because when I bought it the guy here, at this hardware store, told me to buy it. I was following the advice of your staff. [Clerk glares at me.] So I said forget it, I just came here to replace a $5 bulb, not lose half my workday and get interrogated to boot. From now on I'm buying my hardware at Home Depot or Amazon. Say what you will about supporting the spunky little local stores - I can't deal with this again.

If I could leave zero stars, I would. Three years after hiring General Lumber, we're still dealing…read morewith the consequences of their poor workmanship and lack of accountability. We selected General Lumber after comparing several companies, trusting Robert--our main point of contact--who repeatedly assured us, "We're local and not going anywhere." That promise quickly unraveled. We hired them to order Marvin windows and manage installation for 17 windows across two units in our building. They were not the cheapest, but we chose them based on their claim of experience and quality. During installation, Robert and his contractor decided to alter the placement of the windows without understanding the original design intent or performing any verification. They admitted they "didn't understand" why our previous windows were placed where they were--but moved forward anyway. We trusted them as the supposed experts. That was a costly mistake. Shortly after installation, water began leaking into both units and the shared lobby during rainstorms. These areas had never experienced water intrusion in the five years prior to the install. We raised the issue immediately in September 2021. Robert visited once, performed a cursory visual inspection, and began a months-long pattern of excuse-making and blame-shifting. He variously blamed a "once-in-a-lifetime storm," the cornice, and our roof--none of which stood up to basic scrutiny or third-party inspections. Instead of acknowledging the problem or investigating further, Robert and General Lumber resorted to misinformation and deflection. At one point, they claimed water wasn't entering "through or around" their installation--ignoring the fact that they had changed the physical placement of the windows, which compromised drainage and blocked weep holes. Our own hose testing demonstrated conclusively that water was entering above the windows--exactly where they sealed over a critical drainage gap. General Lumber refused to take accountability, perform any real diagnostics, or even revisit the job site for follow-up testing. When we withheld the final payment due to unresolved issues, they threatened us with legal action and filed a lien against our property. We went to arbitration. My husband, with no legal training, meticulously presented our evidence. Robert and his legal team were unprepared. Their entire defense relied on vague references to extreme weather and unverified claims--while we provided photographic evidence, water test results, contractor correspondence, and expert confirmations. The arbitrator ruled in our favor. The outcome? We still have 12 faulty windows that will need to be completely redone at a cost of $12,000 or more--on top of the $28,000 we already paid General Lumber. Robert and his team never stood by their work, never offered a solution, and used legal threats to try and silence us. This has been a nightmare of wasted time, money, and stress. If you're considering General Lumber--especially if you're trusting Robert to stand by his word--proceed with caution. They talk a good game about being "local" and reputable. But when things go wrong, they disappear, deflect, and leave you to pick up the pieces.

You will have a hard time deciding among the options they offer, and their staff is so helpful, responsive and professional. Note that the PATH Train runs very frequently from Manhattan to NJ. It is a quick ride and it stops right near NY Stone. I was surprised at how easy it was to take the PATH Train out to NY Stone. I think people do not realize this. Considering stone for a project? It would be a big mistake to not visit NY Stone. You may even create a new project to use a stone you find at NY Stone.
