I was able to take samples home and I left my email and phone number with an associate for prices on the samples. 2 weeks..no call, no email.

Ordered an entire cabin worth of roofing and siding from SBS Wasilla. Sat down with the siding guys…read moreand have all the measurements, doors, windows, etc... They drew up the order, I paid whatever they asked, and it was derived later that month. When it was time to install (it was all crated up till now) I noticed that one of the main trims "c channel" had been mis-calculated and i did not have enough. There was also another trim that was missing (a transition flashing from a lower panel to an upper panel) another trim that was the wrong trim color and wrong dimensions to go anywhere, and no one could tell me where it was supposed to be used. I returned that last trim to the store and left it with them, even though i paid for it. After calling and meeting with the siding guys again, and learning that they could not find my order, didn't know what trim they ordered for me or why, and did not seem to have a filling system for past orders, i eventually talked to the store manager. After the manager got involved, he did have a local metal company make the trim pieces to try and make it right. However, the green trim is not the exact shade as the original, because it wasn't the same manufacturer, and it should not take the main manager getting involved to fix an order issue. I was also never refunded for the trim that i never ordered (but paid for), or ever given so much as a free pen for all the time, and grief included with me trying to fix their mistake. I like supporting our more local businesses (even though a large conglomerate owns them now), but I am done with atleast this SBS for a long time.

I just have to give a huge shout-out to Candice in the Paint Department at Lowe's!…read more Home projects can feel overwhelming, especially when you're standing in front of what feels like a million paint colors, but Candice made the entire experience enjoyable. She was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and kind. She took the time to listen to my ideas, answer my questions, and help me find the perfect direction for my project. What really stood out was that she genuinely cared. I never felt rushed or like I was "just another customer." She went above and beyond to make sure I had what I needed and felt confident moving forward. Her positive attitude, professionalism, and willingness to help turned what could have been a stressful errand into a great experience. In today's world, exceptional customer service deserves to be recognized, and Candice absolutely deserves it. Lowe's is lucky to have her on their team. Thank you, Candice, for your kindness, patience, and for going the extra mile. You made this Alaska gal's day, and I am truly grateful!
