M	Michael Goldney on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great service! Such friendly and helpful staff. The pleasant way the receptionist answers the phone made me smile. Go ahead and give them a call and see for yourself.
K	Kingsley Chio on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Randy is a great asset to Star Building. Last year, Randy was able to source some railing (that was discontinued) to match my existing railing. This year, I changed my design a bit and needed additional railing (the same discontinued colour). I contacted a few people who could not source it for me. Randy goes above and beyond to make even the general home DIY customer feel valued. Thanks a bunch Randy!
C	Chris Calon on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Good service. Only complaint is how the lumber yard is run. It could be better.
J	Jon Tarves on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great customer service Good prices, Due to global shipping issues, they still do a great job of trying to maintain essential building supplies for general contractors
M	Moose Pike on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Update at the end: Ordered a garage package from them to be delivered on a Friday morning, and it didn't show up Friday at all. They did call to let me know but it was delay, delay, delay, finally got it Saturday. Then all of the 2x4x8 studs that I had ordered with it came in different lengths. Some were 96 1/8, some were 97 1/4, and basically anything in between. I had to spend two hours just cutting them to length before I could begin any real construction. Their response? "Well lumber comes from different mills with different tolerances". But if that's the case, I would have expected two or maybe even three set lengths, one from perhaps each mill, not complete randomness. To me, this was supposed to be a garage PACKAGE ready to assemble, not rough lumber where literally every piece needs to be cut to length. If I'd hired a carpenter I would have been out several hundred extra dollars because of the wasted time. And they weren't willing to compensate me on the lumber costs at all. Oh and to top it all off, for my 22x24 (depth width) garage they sent me 22' trusses. Instead of 24' trusses. So now the trusses are useless to me, and I expect they'll try to charge another delivery fee and probably a bloody restocking fee on top of that. Update: They were willing to not double-delivery and restock fee me, so that's good. The mismatched lumber sizes was still not great, as was not having the option for gable-end trusses (would've saved several hours).
D	Darren Stout on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent service. Didn’t have to go back to the store to get more lumber like I did with Rona, Star was very close on the material but I did have to return a small amount. Much easier than the last garage I build a year ago.
M	Mike Fav on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Used Star Lumber for the materials for my garage build. The sales and support I received from Randy Jarrett at Star was top notch. Randy provided great service, helped with recommendations regarding materials and thoroughly communicated throughout the purchase process.
J	Joshua Overland on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ So many reasons to buy your materials from Star: Prompt delivery, friendly service, top shelf products, reasonable prices, and long-time support for Alberta trades and special needs education! Over many years, through thick and thin, Star Building Materials has been quietly donating and discounting materials to support construction programming at Lord Beaverbrook High School. The generosity of Stephan Lucas and the rest of the Star team has enabled LBHS students to learn how to properly frame floors, roofs, and walls. Star provided the materials to build a fence around our outdoor building area to keep debris, leaves, and weather from impacting our course. Star has provided materials that our special needs students have used to create planter boxes for community gardens. Star has also provided materials that have allowed our students to practice before competing in the Carpentry category at the Alberta Skills Competition. Thank you Star for giving back to our community, and supporting future and current Alberta tradespeople!
