AJ Moody is one of the best building supply salespeople I have ever dealt with. I've been dealing with nightmare building supply sales people for over twenty years. Highly recommended.

Great customer service, quick response to email enquries. Yesterday I arrived to the office on North Olden Ave to purchase and pick up my cellar door. From start to finish all the people Were just phenomenal. Everyone just made you feel like family, they wanted you to have a great experience doing business with the company, unlike the other big chain stores. Therefore I decided to change my review from the initial four to a well deserved FIVE STARS. . Miss Finola thanks again for your assistance in making my purchase as flawless as possible. Dionne.

Knowledgeable staff, hard to find cedar siding locally. You could go to Opdyke and be ignored for a few hours. The yard staff are super helpful, asked if I need help loading (as if I would let someone else stack 16 footers on my roof rack) still very cool they are willing to hep.

These people are Fiberon dealer. I used their online deck designer for my future deck. Went there with my printed plan and material list and asked for price quote to provide Hopewell Twp with accurate material and labour cost to get a building permit. The guy, Len took the plan and promised he would get back to me the next day with the calculations. This never happened, I called him 3 times and he was always saying I'll have it ready for you within an hour.

It's been 3 weeks so far. These people suck and are unprofessional, stay away. There are more places out there where they will treat you better. By the way, I did all the plans and calculations myself and my township accepted it and I have my permit.
