I love this store. Everyone is awesome.
If you're building a small or massive project then you'll find all the materials at SBS. There are two locations in Anchorage; this location doesn't have the vinyl siding, so you'll need to visit the other location at 7828 Lake Otis Pkwy. This location is open on Sundays, unlike the other location. Plenty of parking at this location! Sadly this location has really tall stairs and the ramp is narrow, steep, and far away from the main entrance. If your legs are sore from a workout; if you suffer from a physical issue that requires handrails; or if you're in a wheelchair then you'll want to use the entrance near Tudor Road and not the main entrance. SBS is owned by Builders FirstSource out of Dallas, Texas. Builders FirstSource is a publicly traded company NASDAQ: BLDR. If this review was helpful please click the Like button.
I spent 20 minutes this afternoon at the store trying to buy 3 items. I couldn't get any help. I left in disgust. There were employees on their phones, talking to each other, stocking shelves, more employees than customers. Maybe they don't like women. Hard to say. I have shopped at SBS since 1982; this is the second bad experience that I have had this month.
I was sent here by the staff at Lowe’s and not having been here before, this store is great! Very helpful service and provided exactly what I needed at a lower price and friendly service. I will shop here first before going to big box stores and support local when I can. Glad I was sent here!
I absolutely love this place! We worked with Carolyn over at Design Center who is absolutely amazing! Gotta give her props especially with having to deal with difficult customers like us ;! We had everything picked out for our new kitchen remodel and the very next day changed the countertops >.< We were lucky we changed our minds before the contractor got out to the house to measure anything to proceed with SBS but Carolyn was very accommodating and able to make time for us to stop by and chat about things. So thankful SBS is here in Anchorage, they had everything we needed or knew who to send us to here in town in order for us to get exactly what we want.
Had no problems finding what I needed. Checking out was another matter. I was one of 2 people in the store I kept getting sent to another cashier. Dont check out on the paint guys side. they just sit around and pretend your not there.
Just had Anderson windows put installed in my home. Please, have on hand in the Mill Shop a display of the window for customers to look at and an example of Anderson's white. Their white is not white it is more of linen. So without seeing the window and choosing a trim color my white did not match , it was close but it would have saved a lot of frustration on the customers part. The installers were fantastic! Trying everything to please my disappointment in color & make up of the window. All in all I am happy with the outcome. Thank you Keith, Ryan & George!
Their staff is very helpful and are knowledgeable about their products. I like that they have quality products such as marine grade lumber. They are also great for house paint and other large projects.
I went to Dewalt days and met the rep. I bought a new weed whacker and they threw in a new battery. I signed up for the raffle and won the grand prize! Every time I have gone in, I have been helped and get great service. Thank you for making a positive difference in our community!
Rude employees, good old boy vibe. Had to shop here as a contractor because my employer had an account here. Was often ignored at the contractor counter and paint counter. They are overpriced as other reviewers have stated. They are also no longer locally owned, and haven’t been for awhile.
