Report
Ordered 3 custom beams from 'Better Header' earlier this year for a renovation project and couldn't be happier with the experience. Production was completed much quicker than expected and shipping+delivery was all arranged to be dropped off at the site for me. Extremely professional and easy to work with. Thank you!

Report
Be sure you don't need to cancel or change your order! I placed the order late Friday before Labor Day holiday weekend. First thing Tuesday morning I was at the supply house correcting the order. Better Header had the nerve to tell me that the steel was already ordered and production had begun. Seriously over a holiday weekend which I was told they were closed during. They had the nerve to charge 30% "RESTOCK" Absolute Joke
