To build a successful company that upholds Christlike principles and inspires people to grow. The kind of handle, knob or lock you choose for your door can say a lot about your personality, and it makes a first impression for your home. It's easy to think, especially in the last 24 months, that a supplier is someone who calls you (well, hopefully they are proactive enough to call) just to tell you.

Huntsville, Ala.-based building materials supplier Wilson Lumber has been recognized as a top lumberyard by two highly respected publications in the building materials industry.

Ken Wilson was only 7 years old when he climbed on top of a lumber truck and handed planks down to his father. At 9, he was using a band saw out behind their home, working to fill an order for a big customer. They seemed like tough life lessons at the time - Ken even jokes about how dramatic he was when his father made him saw planks in the cold.

We purchased new pair of patio french doors recently from Wilson Lumber in Huntsville. The wait time on the doors was almost 5 months, because of supply chain issues out of their control. The sales agent was very supportive, in that we were kept abreast of our pending order and contacted as soon as it arrived. The installation crew was outstanding and did a wonderful job of removing theold doors and installing new ones. I will not hesitate in going back to Wilson Lumber for future renovation and remodeling needs. Jim Bergman Scottsboro, AL

Excellent customer service. Pick your lumber and they load as you go. Guard shack even gave me ice cold bottle of water entering yard. Cant beat the prices. Cheaper than Lowes. My new lumber store. Buy local!

Just wanted to give an Atta Boy to Chris. (or "the big ugly" as he called himself when I asked him his name). Chris delivered a sizable load of wood for our back porch project and he was outstanding. This was a tricky delivery as he had to avoid a goal post as well as a Sat Dish and to get the product in the backyard. For the side yard delivery he had to position the 18th feet sheets so he left room for the dumpster, left room for access to the backyard without laying the wood on my neighbors lawn. He did it all with aplomb.

We have used Wilson Lumber for some many past projects, when it was time to updates our Entrance Door, we of course when to Wilson Lumber, they moved to Meridian, no issues. We ordered our Doors, and the store had samples of the many options. We ordered, waited and once the order was ready, we received our doors and later installation. All great! Emails, texts and phone calls - great communications! And we are please with our new Door!

The wait time was longer than I expected, however the very professional installation and follow-up adjustments far excided our expectation. I would recommend this company to anyone needing doors or windows without hesitation. Quality company selling a quality product in a winner in by book!

Wish I could leave more stars! Emile is an absolute treasure. With typical delays of manufacturing, Emile was adamant about making sure I was in the know of all status updates. During our construction process, Emile took care to track down the exact proper materials for the job. Knowing he was in our corner was such a comfort. Wilson Lumber will definitely be our #1 choice for future projects.

Working with a top notch company with a storied history of serving the greater Huntsville area was a breeze. I loved working with a knowledgeable and eager staff. I also appreciated the expert installation services performed by highly trained and skilled carpenters! Thanks Wilson!

Hello, We had an excellent experience with Wilson Lumber recently when we purchased a new front door. The sales representative helped my husband and I find the right door: right style for me, right price for him. The door was ready when we were told to expect it. We scheduled a delivery day and an install day. Although the door was not delivered within the specified window, we communicated with the coordinator to get it delivered later in the day.

On installation day, the team arrived on time, and obviously knew exactly what they were doing, as the door was installed flawlessly, looks great, and opens and closes smooth as silk. We are very pleased.

My experience with Wilson Lumber has been wonderful! I ordered 4 custom-made Pro Via fiberglass exterior doors for the back of my home to replace doors that were rotten and shabby. Sallie was my sales representative after the rep who originally handled my order left the firm. She updated me consistently on the progress of my order over several months. (We all know that everything related to home reno and construction is backed up for months in the post-Covid world.) Having considerable money invested in custom doors, I found the progress reports reassuring and a mark of professionalism. Wilson reps checked my doors prior to delivery to make sure they were not damaged (another thing I appreciate - I'm sure we've all experienced receiving damaged product from a vendor and had the burden of following up personally).

The installation team, headed up by Josh, did a great job on installation, including the replacement of some termite-damaged framework discovered during the install. All my doors open and shut smoothly and look fabulous. These fiberglass doors have a faux wood finish and graining that makes them look like fine furniture - with none of the upkeep! I love them! Sallie also followed up after install to be sure I was totally satisfied. I would recommend Wilson for a top-quality product and top-quality service.

NEVER VISIT THIS PLACE! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! If I could give negative stars I would! Worst business in Huntsville! We ordered a very expensive French door back in April. We were told the delivery date would be June 6th. Here it is June 11th and no door and never heard from Wilson Lumber about the delivery. I had to call and leave a vm with the sales guy who helped us purchase the door (The sales man Josh never will return a call).

Never called me back, so I called and talked to another sales guy. He took down my information, said he would call the manufacturer and would call me back. Never called, so I had to call and talk to him. He then told me it would be END OF JULY! Our house is a new build and we are waiting for this door to arrive so we can finish our house! I honestly don't believe the door was ordered.

I think we were forgotten about until I called wondering where my door was. The excuse was, well Covid hurt a lot of orders or we are so busy. Well I work for a company that places orders and delivers orders and we have been doing good. So has other companies. The Covid excuses can't last forever and they are milking it to death. And you weren't too busy to take my order and payment.

The customer service IS THE WORST I HAVE EVER EXPERINCED! Every time I call the store they can't find my customer information. I give them names, phone numbers, address, literally everything I can and no one ever seems to find my account. And since they can't find the account they can't help me. They just leave a note for Josh, who guess what, doesn't return calls!

I can't afford to leave my job and sit up there and babysit them to make sure I am not forgotten. A company that has been around Huntsville for so long has the worst reputation.

Went to WL this afternoon to get some ideas for replacing a shower. Was greeted by a person at a reception desk and asked if He could help. Told him what I was looking for and he directed me to an area with showers set up. My husband and I looked and had some questions such as what all was included in the prices posted. Two sales clerks at a desk nearby completely ignored us.

I went back to the desk and told the guy I had some questions. He said the lady in a green top would be glad to answer questions. Walked back to the area and continued to be ignored by these two employees. Even walked right up to the desk where they were. It was pretty obvious they weren't about to offer any help. Went back to the desk and told the guy I thought maybe they were too busy to help.

He seemed irritated and said he would come over and try to help. I didn't want to inconvenience anyone in WL by this time so decided best thing to do was leave. When I saw WL Christlike principles to build a successful company on the website I was taken aback by the one that said Treat others the way you want to be treated. I didn't come there to be ignored. I just wanted to be waited on.

My wife and I purchased a front door from Wilsons Lumber with the understanding that WL would be there from the beginning to the end of the process. We worked with Emile Jones the sales associate throughout the process and he led us to believe that WL would be there to the end. The installer David new that there was a problem with the brick molding and shared that information with Emile, but neither of them informed to us that there was a problem prior or after install of the front door.

When I noticed that the door was not installed correctly, meaning they never even tried to shim the door which left gaps as big as my middle finger on the top and side of the door. I contacted Emile and sent him pictures, Emile came to the house the next morning and agreed that the door was not right and contacted David to come out. As we waited Emile didn't understand how David installed the door without taking the inside of the door trim off so he could shim it properly. David came out and when we questioned him about the gaps David went to his truck and gave me these weather stripping like pads and said to put them behind the door jamb weather stripping and that's how they fix that problem?

As a superintendent for construction companies as well as a maintenance director for Hotels, apt communities, etc. my boss would fire me if I ever left shady work like this. I contacted the owners of Wilsons Lumber; Rob, Russ and Mark Wilson and after one day and two conversations over the phone they decided to step away from the problem and let the installer and us figure it out?

I invited the owners to our home to see the door and they first agreed but then backed out. I have to write this review because this is exactly what people need to know, we had to pay for the door up front which was $5,000 and have this door drag the bottom of the threshold and the brick molding cut incorrectly, and not even shimmed properly. Don't waste money at Wilson's Lumber they will take your money and hide.

I have not made a purchase here, so to be fair, I can't tell you their quality or delivery, etc. However, I can tell you their staffs are very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. I was there just to ask some questions, but the staffs still helped me all the way. I was so impressed, I felt the urge to write the review on yelp as soon as I get in the car. If I am going to remodel my house, I'll definitely come to this place to support our local stores.
