Needed 19 ft of baseboard. Only sold in 16 foot lengths so I would need to purchase two. I asked if they could be cut in order to fit inside my suv and the clerk stated NO, they don't make special cuts! Then another clerk came and stated due to only having two boards that they can cut them in half. I asked on one of the boards just cut it @ 12' instead of 8' so I wouldn't have a splice on my wall BUT the clerk said NO, they can only cut it in half! Can't make special cuts! I said you're only making cut @ 12' instead of 8'. She said NO.

Just unloaded there very good professional workers they helped folding my tarps and everyone took off dunnage in and out 45 minutes. That's record time for sheetrock. Definitely 5 star consignee

I would not order anything from them. A friend of mine ordered the same exact front door as the one I wanted for $644.00. I got an estimate for the same door originally and the price was the same. When I called to order the door the salesman was no longer there so the guy told me he would prefer to come out and re measure the door, which is understandable. After he measured it he told me the door went up $332.00 , which is understandable due to the estimate being a few months old. I turned around and called to order the doors for my house 7 months later for them to tell me the price of the doors changed again. They told me they quoted me wrong and the doors was double the price. Now originally when I called they told me the price would probably be 20% more because it was 7 months later, which I understood that, due to me waiting so long.I was pretty aggravated when they told me the doors had double and they quoted me wrong the first time. So I guess what they telling me is the last 3 estimates were wrong and they are confused on their pricing or is it because we are having a pandemic and we are trying to make up for lost money. This is bad business. What I don't understand is how 2 different salespeople roughly quote the same quote for them to tell me they were both wrong

DO NOT WORK HERE! You WILL NOT GET A RAISE! There are people who has worked there for 6 years and still dont have a raise. They will tell you what you want to hear to get you in the door because nobody wants to work for them. They do NOT care about you all they care about is making a sale and getting it delivered. You cannot tell them whats going on if you do miss a day because the whole yard will know when you get back. Terrible , low paying and full of lies at the job people. Dont fall for it.

Nothing like watching a company truck run a red light and almost causing a 4 car accident at peters rd and Lapalco. The light did not just turn red. It was red for a while. No wonder y’all are always looking for cdl drivers if that’s the kind of drivers y’all employee.

No concern for customers. Will tell whatever you want to here to make sale with no concern about your project or timelines. Any info needed and sales will connect you to shipping who tells you you have to be connected to sales. Worth the drive to any other lumber yard you can find.

Brought back a rotted door frame that states “Lifetime Rot Warranty” on the tag and Dufrenes WON’T stand behind the warranty. I really expected more from this company.
