It did not go well..I left a message and 1 week later I still hadn't heard from them, so I called again, explained what service I needed and the guy transferred me to a number where I had to leave a voicemail and I was not going through that again because I had left a previous voicemail and never got a call..I'm not going to chase after anyone to do work for me so obviously they were not interested in taking the job

Description of Work: Unlike Lowes or Home Depot, Wilson's Lumber is much more personalized. We not only got excellent service but also expert advice. Wilson's also had the siding we needed, in stock, that was only available at Lowe's or Home Depot by special order.

Description of Work: I almost built my entire 3500 sq ft house with Wilson Lumber supplied materials and services. It is really a surprise to see all the other things they can do outside of just lumber, doors and windows. Like closets, cabinets, decks, and exterior siding. They have a wide variety to meet all types of needs. Like nice and expensive higher end pieces to middle of the road and still good quality. Except my plumbing, electrical, and flooring, all was pretty much provided by them. They have a great showroom and excellent sales staff. They was not always the cheapest on every item but I was willing to give and take to have that assurance I would be taken care of. I found out about them by word of mouth, and so I had them price everything I could in my house. After we started, I knew I would be taking care of, on any of their materials they provided.

Workman who did the job did an excellent job. It was the company that was a problem. Despite multiple requests from me for information on an order my contractor had said he had made and I had paid for, Wilson Lumber refused to respond to any of my questions, saying they would not respond to the homeowner, only the contractor. Had they responded and told me the order had never been placed it would have saved me the $4000 I was ripped off by the contractor. Wilson's failure to disclose that no order had been placed cost me money I did not have. They were however, very quick to tell me about the lien on my home they were filing to get paid. Bottom line, Wilson's tradesmen and women do a great job. However, the corporate business practices are designed to maximize the probability the homeowner is victimized twice by the contractor and the company. My advice, go somewhere else who recognizes that their customer is not only the contractor doing the remodeling, but the homeowner who is writing the checks. If you want to pay twice for something and get victimized by their corporate business practices, this is the store for you. Otherwise, beware and take your business elsewhere.
Description of Work: Procured and installed shower door and custom closet systems.

Response from Wilson Lumber Co
Wow, this sounds like a disastrous situation and I am embarrassed to hear about it. It sounds a bit like an account issue where we are bound by law not to disclose information on an account unless you are the account owner. In any case, I am terribly sorry for what you went through and would welcome any opportunity to earn back your business. The customer is the life blood of our business and we cannot afford to lose any. We need your business. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to make amends.

The door had to be remade as we did not want the door knob holes. This was clearly communicated to Wilson. There were delays getting the doors we requested. I would shop around more the next time I need lumber products. I rated them overall a "b" because we finally received what we wanted

Response from Wilson Lumber Co
I apologize for a late response but we are just now getting around to Angie's List. This is embarrassing and frustrating to see but I thank you for your honesty. I am not familiar with this situation but would love to know who the builder was so that I can look up the order and see what happened and then, make sure it does not happen again. Please feel free to call me at 256-852-7411. Doors are one of our strongest departments and I want to make sure this was an isolated incident. If there is anything we can do too earn another opportunity to your business, do not hesitate to let me know. Robb Wilson President Wilson Lumber

Called and went into the showroom looking to buy new wooden windows. Sales staff did not seem to really want to help me as I was only looking to purchase one window as it would seem. If you are a large contractor I am sure the staff is as accommodating as they can be but for me as the home repair handyman I will not be going out of my way to purchase anything from this retailer in the future.

Overall, a lot of aggravation and wasted time. I won't do business with them again and hopefully this will prevent someone else from experiencing the same.
Description of Work: Purchased replacement French Door for the bedroom. The door was 1 inch shorter than the measurements provided. The Sales Rep told me it was, but stated the installer could "compensate" for the error. The composite frame was gouged and filled with putty. I have since corrected it by doing a better repair job than they did. The original sliding screen that was delivered was too long (obviously, because they built the door too short). After four subsequent attempts to provide a functional sliding screen, they left one at the house. They were instructed to call before attempting delivery. The screen they left was a USED screen, filthy with dust, paint scrapes exposing the bare aluminum, warped frame, and did not fit when I tried to install it. After observation, I noticed 2 of the four rollers would not retract into the frame. I freed up the rollers and was able to get mount it on the door track. The screen frame was not parallel to the door frame (bowed) thus providing entrance for bugs, negating the purpose of the screen. I left a voice message with the Sales Rep two days ago, but haven't heard anything since. I have contested the purchase with American Express, so I will receive satisfaction through them, if not Wilson Lumber. Update: The Manager at Wilson Lumber called me the day after I submitted this report and stated he would personally see that the problem was corrected. Today, July 12, 2011, they delivered a new door. It was perfect. This solved the ongoing problem, but it is unfortunate that the manager had to become involved (and I told him that) to solve the problem. For, that reason, I am not changing any ratings previously provided.
