  Andy was so helpful and generous with his time and advice. We're total amateur DIYers, and we came away with exactly what we were envisioning for a shelving project.

  Good lumber, fair prices. It's nice to support local businesses such as these. The owner is helpful and has an all-knowing confidence that comes from years of working in an industry and knowing it like the back of your hand. Looking for trendy rough sawn wood, they have tons and happy to unload some from their plentiful stock. Need something cut just for you, they'll accommodate in any way they can if you just ask. They mill everything on site and have quite a few options to choose from. About as straight forward as it gets, you need wood, they've got it.

  Called in to ask about the price of wood chips, only needed about a yard for our chicken run. Guy on the phone felt the need to complain to me about how he wasn't going to put the bucket on his tractor for a yard. After I explained that was all we needed he felt the need to yet again tell me he didn't want to do it and proceeded to hem and haw about it. After that drama he told me he would do it but he WAS NOT happy about it, as if me giving him some business was an inconvenience. Told him I was going elsewhere. I refuse to give my money to someone like that.

  Great place to go for lumber! A little over half the price of Home Depot (who excused their lumber prices on the pandemic, which is a farce). Andy (who I assume is the owner) was very accommodating and friendly... He personally picked out the ten foot pine boards and he planed 3 sides, ran them through the table saw and cut them down to 5 feet. The wood was fresh and smooth. It was great being there to see the whole process.. it's been too long. Andy showed me a fine cedar chest that he made, with book-matched curly maple lumber. I uploaded the picture on this FB page. Definitely gotta a go there. Saturday from 7:15am until noon is the best for retail customers..

  Oleksak Lumber is one of those rare businesses. For local hardwoods and pine, they are the go to spot. Their lumber is excellent, putting Home Despot to shame. This family-owned company is so old that even I don't remember when it was founded. My association with them began over forty years ago. Their knowledge base is so broad that I've yet to ask them a question about wood, its uses, or even cabinet building that they haven't been able to answer. My highest recommendation for a fantastic locally-owned lumberyard that buys locally.
