Humphries Building Products

These guys have been on the receiving end of MUCH of my money the past six months or so. I’ve been working on a rather large hardscaping project in my back yard, building a retaining wall out of concrete blocks, facing it with stone veneer, putting in a paverstone patio, etc. After learning that they sell your standard 8×8×16 concrete block for about 10−15% less than Lowes (and when you need hundreds, that adds up quick), they became my defacto supplier for my other retaining wall and patio material needs.
In addition to all the blocks, rocks, mortar, faux stone, pavers, etc., they sell every tool under the sun needed to work with all those materials.
The men that work here aren’t winning any charm awards, but these are hard core construction types — it’s not like shopping at Bloomingdales. They are direct and matter-​of-​fact, but efficient. It’s worth the trip up Buford highway if you’re crazy like me and decide to tackle a home improvement project. Check back in 2012 and maybe I’ll be finished.
