No signage to warn about this poorly placed hydrant right in front of Truitt and White. Destroyed my front bumper. Would be good to block off for future customers.

Amazing customer service in their Lumber Department. Highly recommend.

Top quality products & service. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. I get the impression that all the staff like working there. My only complaint is that sometimes the lumber order line is a bit slow. Generally, its worth the wait.

Ive been looking for some materials for a diy project and Truitt & White staff were able to point me in the right direction to get me started. Thanks guys!

I love this place. It is definitely built for pros,but they are also very helpful to amateurs such as myself. They have helped me with everything from custom sizing a pre-made door to researching denim insulation. My only issue ever is that it can take a little time to find someone to speak with. As soon as you make contact, they either know exactly what you are talking about or can point you toward someone who does.

Only high quality products. The best lumber in the east bay. Save time and energy by buying here. Service is top notch. Drive up to your materials and they will load it. (Help them if you can lazybones). Small footprint so no long walks. Please dont go here. I want this place all for myself ;-)

The level of service @ Truitt & White is superior! My fiance and I went to several other lumber companies before, looking for interior doors & baseboards. Not a single one could answer our questions or give us general information on different options. All we got was look through this catalog of a couple hundred doors and let me know what you like. We had lost hope and really had no clue what we were going to do for our doors.As soon as we walked into Truitt & White, Terrace introduced herself and got right into helping us. Within minutes we had a better idea of what door style we liked. After we left, Terrace sent a follow up email with the door we discussed and has been an exceptional at answering our questions, via email, since. We are getting ready to order our Shaker style interior doors and could not be more thrilled!If you are a home owner looking for any lumber products, I strongly recommend Truitt and White! They will make your project so much easier! We are first time home owners in Oakland and will use Truitt and White for all of our projects!

I come here every week. Im always impressed with how helpful and knowledgeable the sales staff is. Some of them have a lot of professional experience in carpentry and construction. Theyre always happy to help me price out materials. No where else in the east bay does it better.

Truitt and White is the real thing, a full lumber yard with a huge selection of lumber and plywood you cant find anywhere else, hardware, tools, and tons of custom order fittings, windows and doors and just about everything else you would hope to find at a Building Supply outlet. The staff is very knowledgeable, the yard and store is neat, uncluttered and well organized, and its only a very short wait for expert help with building materials sourcing and construction know how. I believe they are the best resource for builders in the entire East Bay.

Fantastic experience!! They knew exactly what I needed. Super happy customer here

Very very professional and nice workers both at the cashier and in lumber cuts. Moreover, I made some mistake in initial cutting list, but the guys took it lightly and did everything so I had to add only a minimal difference.

We purchased all if our windows and a large slider for our home. They were very professional and easy to work with. They have a list of installers and ours was awesome. Easily saving 50% over anyone else. (Dont be fooled by the buy one get the second one 50% off from Anderson windows.) For example, our slider with side glass is 12 feet wide, our price for a top level unit was $3500 plus installation and Anderson Windows discounted price was $13,000 for an inferior option.

Truitt & White is highly recommended by Charles Montano from GC Builders, Inc. for windows and door products. I have been working with James E on a few projects that have always had a great finish. The staff is very knowledgeable of Marvin products and provide many services to Home Owners and local contractors with their training program. I also want to put in a good word about their building materials division. Staff are very nice and very knowledgeable also.

Friendly, welcoming and informative staff. A small showroom and a small parking lot. Mostly Marvin and Integrity products, pricey. Beware: make sure you dont leave without a detailed receipt that matches your original quote. We were overcharged and had to spend a lot of time fixing it.

You can get cheaper wood elsewhere, but it wont even come close on quality. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. The selection is terrific.

Knowledgeable staff, quality goods.

Extremely knowledgeable staff. The go to place for professionals in the East Bay.

New review, although still not perfect written white has come a long way since their fire and things are really coming back together and they definitely deserve 5 Stars cuz theyre truly the best lumber yard everold review truitt and white used to be the best, then a fire happened and they have never really made it back. the store is the worst and the help among the worst. paint guys knows nothing about paint and wheres the guy that did. to much internal strife between workers and unions. what happened to the contractors desk? and why are you competing with home depot? best lumber yse best lumber yard yes fire the people that ruined your good name Old Mr White would have never put up with whats going on there now, typical family business driven into the ground by the kids..

Truitt and White is a long standing institution in the East Bay. The quality of the lumber is good. The systems they have set up for loading and getting you out of the office and the yard are exceptional. The people they have working there are extremely knowledgeable. They know the products and have a good inventory control to keep you from running all over the yard trying to figure out if they stock or are out of a product. I highly remcommend Truitt and White for professionals and homeowners as well.

Pricy but good quality materials for that price. Can always find straight boards and high quality panels of materials. Super convienient for Berkeley and the highway corridor in surrounding communities.

They have great people there

Top quality products, very knowledgeable staff and over-the top-great-service. Recently Erick in hardware was very patient and helpful with a complicated Baldwin door handle and latch.

The best of the best, all of them very professional, polite people.The service is super fast.

When it comes to services, the old saying is…GOOD, FAST, CHEAP… Pick TwoTruitt and White has to be the only exception b/c they consistently give me ALL 3!@ big box construction supply depots Im lucky if I get 1! (and you know which one that is)Bottom line is, you get what you pay for. I dont like buying garbage and thats why I get my building supplies from Truitt & White.GO BEARS!!

The best for professional building materials.

People are nice. Prices are average but their workmanship is very good. I wish they were open more often. Check their hours before driving over.

Great place always has what I need

I ordered a door through truitt and white the door that I was shown in the picture had piano teeth on it thats what I wanted thats what I specified the order came in complete and still has not been rectified

Truitt&White is the Disney World for the professional builders. When you have a discerning client that wants quality this is the go to place. They carry everything from fully stocked lumberyard, building materials, hardware, paint, power tools, windows skylights decking excetera moulding trim siding Hardware in pain and tools windows paint, patio doors, skylights, engineering wood engineered and so much more.-1 star for not being the cheapest.

Always top quality products, occasionally piss poor public relations and communication skills . Yard guy was surly and argumentative, not focused on being helpful at all, just in placing blame and being right, (perhaps he is was not happy with other things in his life that day, but keep it to yourself). At the front desk they have a photo of Stadler and Waldorf, the two crotchety hecklers from the muppets. i hope that is not their mascots.

Good, informative display! Welcoming and knowledgeable receptionist.

Where to get the highest quality lumber, building supplies, and tools. Staff very helpful to amateurs like me.

Everybody very helpful.

Pricey, but Im happy to have them in Berkeley.

**********UPDATE: T&W contacted me, came to inspect the lumber and gave me a refund. They are also confused how the lumber I got was given to me since it clearly had sun nd water damage, but they have rectified the situation as far as Im concerned. They corrected the mistake.**********T&W ripped me off, I had a horrible experience dealing with them.My awesome contractor recommended this place to me, so I purchased $500 of maple 3/4 plywood for a built-in shelf. I asked them to cut them in half for a 2x8 foot finished piece. After some time prepping the wood for cutting, I noticed that some pieces had bubbles in the top finish from obvious water damage. I also noticed the wood was sun bleached in some areas. I saw the best examples of this expensive plywood while at the facility in Berkeley, so Im not sure where this wood came from. I cut around what I could and used what I thought were good pieces, but when I went to paint the wood, the wet primer activated some previously hidden bubbles and hidden water damage showed up in my already assembled shelves. I called the person who sold me the lumber and what i thought was an owner, Mark, but no one could be bothered to return my call to try and make things right.I guess if you arent a contractor, T&W will blatantly rip you off. There is no way the wood they gave me came from the same place the rest was stored inside and out of the sun. I feel like they just gave me pieces from outside. Beware of T&W if youre just a DIY or at least pick your own pieces. Im shocked they dont even care enough about my $500 dollar sale to at least call me back. My contractor was shocked and agreed upon inspecting the wood that it for sure was in the sun and got wet. This place is worse than HomeDepot in my opinion due to the fact that you expect problems at HD, but Im shocked at how T&W treated me.

They are awesome. Very helpful and reasonable.

Superior lumber and construction material supplier.

A found a pair of hinges here, very hard to find somewhere else

Great selection of quality materials

NOT family friendly. Don’t bring your kids or they will go over the “rules” on a piece of paper with you. They need to decide if they want kids there or not.

Great customer service

Awesome

My go to Lumber yard

Why the sales persons do not answer the phones is a mystery?

Good lumber

You looking to do this weekend

Great service

This is the place

Very good place to buy building material and good price

Very good place good attention

In this place you find quality materials and you do not have to look for them, you just order in the box what you need and they will load the material for you
