Report
Went in to put a $1500 down payment on a front door combo. Sales person I worked with was on a call. Told me he was too busy and going to "be a while". I asked what is "a while". Answer was "like an hour". No remorse or support from someone else. Left me like a chump. I walked out, ripped up the quote and threw it out in their garbage can. I will never walk into that place again, even so much to buy a SCREW. I wanted to GIVE THEM MONEY and they were too busy. Lowes. here I come. Mr. Kuiken would be rolling in his grave.

I have always stayed away from the big box stores for building materials and hardware. Since the 80's I have always dealt with Kuiken, primarily at the Emerson or Fair Lawn branches for building materials. PRICES ARE EQUAL TO OR BETTER THAN THE BIG BOX STORES. I recently dealt with Tom Kennedy at the Fair Lawn branch for purchasing Trex deck materials. My deck contractor's usual source for Trex was out of stock for two months or more. Tom was able to secure the necessary materials in less than a week.
Delivery with their truck was on time and efficient. Communicating with Tom either in person, phone or email was always without any hassle. I highly recommend Kuiken. Very few businesses have this type of professionalism any more

Worst customer service experience in my life, all the employees are slow and don't have a clue of what they doing. Waste of time should all get fire

You can buy 2x4s in Home Depot $4 cheaper than here. Kuiken is gauging prices. I still have account in there but I won't buy there a thing

Service there is great. The young man Brandon there is very handsome and nice. He deserves a high five. 10/10 the face of Kuiken Brothers.
