I wish I could give this GEM OF A COMPANY a 0 stars or negative stars…read more All of my material was miss-milled and/or bowed and/or twisted and what I was told by the mill is that the grade of wood they was sent by ALB was substandard and that the quality of that type of material had fallen substantially over they years which is something that should have been disclosed to use prior to the purchase. I was told, after the fact, Benjamin Baker has no quality control standards. The particular mill used by ALB to mill material for my project says they will not do business with ALB due to the negative experiences they have had, as well. I have seen good material come from ALB prior to my project. Hence the reason why we foolishly chose them as a supplier and in this case my family lost 8k+. Perhaps my project/home was too small of a project for them to care after they received payment. The projects, ALB supplied, that we inspected prior to our purchase had at least 10 times the material being a bit more lucrative for ALB and therefore more incentive for him to make sure the material they received was of top quality. Make sure to inspect every board before you take delivery or you may be, like my family, sorry. Expectation is 10% waste when you purchase lumber but this was a total waste. Our expectations were made very clear upfront and we were told that we would get what we were promised, which, unfortunately didn't occur. update 1/2/2014 And now I received a call from a process server. I assume is because I was am divulging the fact that miss milled wood came from this wonderful class act of a company. After partial installation the wood had to be torn off of my home because it looked that awful. Apparently I'm not allowed to speak of facts or opinions regarding a business that in my opinion took advantage of my family..... This is the United States of America where truth and opinions are protect under the first amendment guaranteeing freedom of speech and expression. I guess it's time for the courts to give ALB some insight into the laws of this great country. This is not my first rodeo. Instead of paying for an attorney perhaps you should work on rectifying the problem you caused and pay my family back. You failed at providing me what I paid for so I have the right to let others know. Do your research, inspect projects closely that use ALB product and definitely make sure you inspect any material for fitment and milling inconsistencies prior to taking delivery. If you would like I am happy to show you the pile a useless garbage I have kept in storage for years. In fact I may make an art installation out of the material with a dedication. I cannot recommend this company for anything as my experience was years of hassle and frustration. I ended up having Fine Lumber supply and mill the material that was installed on my home which came out perfect and with less than 10% waste. They even replaced boards that had defects they didn't catch. They did all the work in-house, they had special knifes built to mill the material. An over all awesome experience with them. They were timely and the material was top-notch! Cheers to honest people. Happy 2014 everyone!

I wrote an email asking for a specific piece of siding with specific dimensions in hardiplank…read moreinstead of masonite., and got a response that said "we have all the standard sizes of hardieplank in stock now" from Dean Apparently it was MY mistake to take that as an affirmative response, because when I drove an hour out of my way to go pick up the board with those dimensions they told me that they only has hardieboard not hardieplank, that it would never work in place of masonite, they didn't have that size in wood either and when I showed them their own email from an hour previous Dean raised his voice and said "I said Standard Sizes!" Apparently he couldn't be bothered to read two whole sentences of email and only read the one half of the word "hardie" and I was supposed to understand that he had disregarded the rest of it. Listen: Maybe if you are a builder or something that is going to buy 2000 board feet they will give you the time of day. But even then I wouldn't want to support their dishonesty. As an individual: Avoid!

It arrived and was beautiful: alas, there was a deep scratch, first noticed by the delivery team. They took the table back where it was completely refinished and returned to me rapidly.

I give this place the highest marks for professional knowledge and fair pricing. If you order a custom table, large or small, I promise you will be delighted with the result.

Our dining table and eight chairs were some of the first made of mesquite by Southwest Trading Post…read moreabout 22 years ago. It was designed and crafted specifically to go in the dining room of our new Texas Hill Country home. To say they attract attention from anyone who visits is an understatement. Everyone is in awe of the wood, the design, the quality, and the uniqueness of these works of art. When I sold my home of almost 20 years and moved into a much smaller condo in Southwest Austin, one of the very first requirements was that there was a space where the table and chairs would be showcased appropriately. Fortunately, I found the perfect place. Now, for the disclaimer, the founder of Southwest Trading Post and the artisan who crafted our table and chairs is one of our sons, but I can assure you that if someone else had made this treasure, I would be just as delighted with it. My only hope is that when they put me in "the home", there will be space for this family heirloom.
