On a fateful cold rainy Friday October night at 1 am my car started overheating in the jack in the box drive Thur as I was picking up a DoorDash order for $5.75 . I had no choice but to cancel and sleep in front of Compton lumber as all my friends where either drunk or asleep.Thankfully the staff at Compton Lumber were welcoming as they gave me water and allowed me to use the restroom.I’m grateful to Gabe Stern and all the staff here at Compton Lumber.Thank you guys for your Hospitality and the understanding of my situation.

Wow, fantastic! The most helpful people at a lumber yard ever. There was absolutely no junk Lumber like you see it home ding dong or low end Lowes. Locals. Been here since the Yukon gold rush. Go here first, and you likely wont have to go anywhere else.

We had to have a complete roof replacement, right down to the rafters. Compton Lumber supplied all the wood and shingle materials. They were competitive in cost and reliable. Everything was delivered on time without any problems. The service was excellent. The drivers were courteous and mindful of the positioning of materials on the driveway. We highly recommend Compton Lumber, and would use them again for any building material for future projects.

I absolutely love working with Compton Lumber! I’ve now used Compton Lumber four times for all my hardware needs this year. The guys in the office are very knowledgeable and meet all our needs as customers. I was working with John Stacey from the get and he told me their prices may not be the best but are competitive, also the quality of their products are the best and they will do everything they can to get same day delivery if thats what your looking for. From here on out I will never go anywhere else beside Compton Lumber.

I’ve owned my own building company for about three years now and I’ve have used many different lumber yards but Compton Lumber is the best yet. They’ve always met all my need for materials with the highest quality and competitive prices. With their great selection of lumber (teak, white oak, cherry, walnut, mahogany, red oak, baltic birch, maple and more) also options for siding and hardware needs, I can complete any job with out delivery or product issues. I highly recommend checking out Compton Lumber for you next project.

Great company to work with. I had old cedar shake siding on my house with 70 years of paint that looked awful. They replaced with Hardie board siding, trim, fascia, soffits - the house looks brand new! They also replaced my roof with all top notch materials. Highly recommend Compton.

Loved these guys at Compton Lumber in Renton. Very professional and Knowledgeable. They didnt talk over my head. I knew nothing about building a home let alone buying the materials.. Sheesh..... I was educated about so so much. It made me less stressed. Prices were very reasonable. Delivery guy was amazing. I truly will recommend you guys to a few of my friends. Thanks Gabe!

I have been shopping with Compton Lumber for over 20 years. I was bidding on a large project, after checking around. They were able to save me a significant amount of money and offer me a higher quality of material. There deliveries and customer service is always at the highest level. They have the greatest team in the City of Seattle. It is like my home away from home.

Review №33

The personal at this Seattle location are pretty polite and I like this Lumber store but, the problem at this time is, they dont have much in stock. What their Website shows and what they have on hand is disappointing. Didnt want to do business with big Box Stores, came all the way in from Redmond for nothing. I hope they get it together soon.

I am from Phoenix area and i am a general contractor. I had a project to do in the Seattle area. I needed some doors, windows and custom milling for this large project. I checked with two other lumberyards but neither had a mill shop. I didnt know Compton Lumber from Adam. They treated me like i was one of the guys. They had more knowledge about building materials and roofing products than i have ever seen. I thank you Compton Lumber. I will always use you when i am in town. The friendliness of the staff was also a pleasant surprise.

Review №36

The best thing about wanting great results on any project, no matter your skill level, is having the best products available, the staff that just deals with those products, their expertise and advice. Unlike the big-box stores or other lumber yards, the staff here has been here for years. This is crucial in establishing personal connections catered to your individual needs.While not the cheapest their pricing reflects the quality required to do the job right and its by no means a pricing that is unjust. I go out of my way to get my lumber there...no matter how large or small my remodeling jobs are.Its comforting walking in and being recognized and appreciated.

I had my house renovated and my contractor used Compton Lumber exclusively. Not only were the products high quality but the staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. I will use Compton Lumber from now on. Their quality of material is out of this world.

This is a true lumber yard that caters primarily to construction professionals or competent do-it-yourself homeowners. Their costs are a little higher than some, but they make up for it in service and quality of materials. They have a great selection of hardware and tools in their showroom (tools that professionals want to use, not the cheap stuff you see at box stores). They have their own door shop and an extensive INDOOR lumberyard. This place has been around so long, they literally help build Seattle, they have the pictures to prove it. I go out of my way to shop here. They do deliver, for a fee. Just be aware that they only provide a drop and go delivery, they do not have on board forklifts like some lumberyards.

Great selection of exotic and domestic hardwoods. Perfect for the hobbiest looking to work on a home project or a contractor supplying a complete remodel. I wish there was something like this in the Redmond/Woodinville area.

Review №53

Hitting my 20 year mark working almost exclusively with Compton. When you have relationships with staff that have been there for 20+ years, and employees come back after they try new careers, that says something about how they foster relationships within the company as well as with their clients. When I see someone post negative comments I cant help but think that someone was having a bad day or even a bad attitude in general. I believe the respect you get is equal to the respect you show.

This crew is on point. I have worked with Compton for years now and they are the best supplier in the Seattle area for both solid wood and sheet materials. Save your gas and just go here first.

My contractor referred me to Compton Lumber for my project supplies. We were tasked with purchasing Milgard windows, Pabco shingles and Hardi siding. After getting estimates from several lumberyard’s in Seattle. Compton Lumber was in the right price range I was looking for, I would highly recommend Compton Lumber for their quality of products, value and knowledgeable staff. All of my deliveries were on time.

As a Lead carpenter at a local hospital I suffered thru 10+ years hoping Compton Lumber would value our business and become a partner I could count on. They were unreliable and lacked good communication skills. I eventually moved on to a lumber yard that valued our business. I dont believe in rewarding a company with business for poor practice.
