When the service tech came out to our house he informed our husband of the time he would arrive - he was an hour late. Phone calls have also gone unreturned. We both expected these issues to be resolved by over a month ago at the latest.
Description of Work: My husband and I placed an order for a $2500 oak Anderson window July 21, 2017 from Mentor Lumber and we worked with Tim Albee to purchase the window. The window was delivered on time, we briefly inspected the window for gashes and dings in the wood and accepted the delivery but noted that there were sizable gaps in the corners that were not flush as they should have been. Mentor Lumber was notified of this and a service tech was sent to our house 1 week later. He informed us that all gaps could be corrected for with new stops. We waited another 4 weeks for the new window stops to be delivered and installed. We were still dissatisfied with gaps and the way the screens were fitting in the window. We were told by Tim Albee that he would come out to our house to inspect the defects. In late August Tim came out to our house and told us the gaps in were unacceptable and the frames in fact did not fit the windows. We were told once more to wait another 4 weeks for different parts to be ordered and were reassured that everything would fit properly. It is October 6 - we were supposed to receive a phone call this week regarding parts and/or update regarding what was being done to correct this issue. We have heard nothing and phone calls have been unreturned. Our window that was delivered July 21, 2017 is still sitting uncorrected by Mentor Lumber & Anderson Window on October 6, 2017. This is unacceptable. My husband and I will be contacting the company to have the window uninstalled. When paying $2500 for 1 window you have expectations. These expectations have continued to go unmet since July 21, 2017 to date.

They were very professional and quick with the quote. However we have not decided as of yet if we will go with a deck or patio.

Everyone who has seen our kitchen remarks how nice the cabinets look in our new kitchen layout. They also think our Cambria counter tops are granite even though they are actually quartz. Redoing a kitchen can be stressful but with Tim's help it was much easier, and the results are fantastic.
Description of Work: Tim, who is in cabinet sales, suggested a kitchen design, helped to choose the cabinets, as well as the hardware, and provided assistance in choosing the Cambria counter tops.

They came to our house when they said they would. Guided us to what he thought would be good for us. After a few days he phoned with the quote. we accepted and they made the mantel. A man was sent out with some stain samples and we made our selection. Next they phoned and we made a time for the installation. The installer cleaned up when he finished. We were very happy with the results.
Description of Work: We had a custom fireplace mantel made and installed by Mentor Installed Services. The construction was excellent. They stained the mantel to match our existing paneling and it turned out great. After the mantel was installed the person who was responsible for the quote and measurements came by to see if we were satisfied. We were very satisfied.

This was a rewarding experience and I am very glad I went to Mentor Lumber. All members of the staff were friendly and helpful and I was able to make an informed decision on the cabinets.
Description of Work: Mentor Lumber was suggested to me by my contractor at HortCon Construction and the contact person was Doug Page. Mr Page listened to what needs I had, and went over the layout of my kitchen. I chose shaker style cabinets from a vast array of examples of cabinetry in a Saddle Brown color. Using my kitchen layout, Mr Page did a computer rendering of my kitchen so that I could see the new layout. Since my kitchen is small, the area I wanted a pantry in was not deep enough for one due a window, but Mr Page suggested that I use a linen closet that was also available in the same style as a pantry. Not only is it beautiful but it holds all of my non-perishables and small appliances such as blenders and toaster. The cabinets were ready long before the kitchen was but Mentor Lumber held my cabinets until my contractor was ready for them and then delivered them to the house. My delivery included all of the trim pieces and installation hardware to install the cabinets. After my kitchen was completed, Mr Page called me to make sure I was happy with the kitchen and my cabinets, which was wonderful that he would follow up after everything was done.

I went to Angie's List and sorted through the listings by ranking. I obtained 3 estimates of which Mentor Lumber was one. Tom Kirk came out exactly when promised, reviewed the area, listened to what I wanted and gave me estimates after I selected a few styles I was interested in. He was knowledgeable and personable and came well prepared with product literature and pictures of their work. He was patient with my questions and explained everything to my satisfaction. I had researched the subject well and found he did not 'talk down' which was such a pleasure!! Tom was very thorough and had extraordinary attention to detail (he remembered I had also inquired about fireplace mantle quotes!). What was also nice to hear was how complimentary he was about the gentleman who would do the work, John. Tom was also well informed about their supplier and knew the product well. He followed up promptly with e-mails and phone calls. His assistant, Linda, was also very helpful with follow-up and answering questions. I happened to be in the general area of their showroom and dropped by to sign the contract and place the deposit. To a person everyone was cordial, personable, and helpful even though my visit was unexpected. Tom arrived a little while later and gave me a tour of the showroom, called the supplier and scheduled the work. Why did I choose them out of the three: Perceived quality, service, knowledge of product, price and my "gut/chemistry with Tom". He just seemed like a really good guy! Tom and John arrived promptly on the morning promised and estimated that it would take 3-4 days to do the work given the angle cuts and piecing required. John is a true craftsman and you can see he takes a lot of pride in his work! He is meticulous and takes the time to get things right. He explained everything he was doing clearly and with joy. My dog (Shih Tzu) was also curious about the work and took to John like I have never seen him do to anyone else. That said a lot about John as well in my estimation! Tom dropped by on the 3rd day to check on progress. We found we needed one additional baluster due to an unanticipated angle and that was ordered, delivered, and installed promptly. John kept the work area clean and neat and was attentive to wood dust and wet feet when it rained (smile). He left the area neat at the end of every day and organized his tools in one place. He was just a pleasure to work with him. I am so pleased with the final look and the angles and fittings are just exquisite! I decided to do my own staining and polyurethaning although they do offer that work (and I can start saving for the mantle!) I already have my staining completed. The oak was so smooth, it didn't require a lot of prep sanding which I wasn't looking forward to. I would absolutely use Mentor Lumber again and intend to do so. I recommend them without hesitation.
Description of Work: They installed an over-the-post oak handrail system going up the stairs and across the upstairs landing. There were some tricky angles and slopes.

They are not pushy and they have a nice show room for all of their products. They will come out and measure, and satisfaction is guaranteed. If there is something wrong with their work, they will come replace them for free.
Description of Work: They got our Anderson windows for us and Mike installed them.

I have a sturdy, well built shed!
Description of Work: I was building a storage shed (10x14) in my back yard. I purchased plans for the shed from an Internet company. The directions were mostly clear, but not being a builder by trade, I had several questions. During the course of my project, I worked with Rick at the counter who answered each and every one of my questions. In addition, he gave me several ideas of how to improve the plans. I used these ideas and they improved the quality and durability of the shed. I purchased most of the materials for the shed at Mentor Lumber with Rick's guidance. The wood was of good quality. I made several return trips to Mentor Lumber. Rick spent a lot of time with me. He made drawings of his ideas and waited until I was satisfied and understood his ideas. He was very professional and never talked down to me. I was able to return extra lumber. The price at Mentor Lumber was competitive, but I will go again even if the price is higher. This was an excellent experience.
