    I was invited to their annual vender picnic last Friday. Very nice affair…read more It was set up at a forest preserve in Wauconda. They had a pig roast and a prize raffle which was very nice. On thing that I can say is, there were probably 50 ABC employees at the picnic and I literally probably met 25 of them. All of them were super friendly, had great attitudes, and were extremely welcoming and inviting. I don't usually buy the things that ABC sells, but If I did, I would definitely go to them just for the simple fact that their people were so friendly and helpful. I love doing business with good people... I don't mind paying a little more for great service.

    I have been buying ridge cap stapled cedar shakes from ABC for a couple of years, most recently on…read moreApril 15, 2016 and then on April 29, 2016. The ones from the 15th and previously were made by Silver River Contracting, Mission BC. The ones from the 29th were made by Harby Imports (604-462-7721) Canada. I noticed the different label on the product from the 29th and thought that the Harby product looked smaller and the bundle felt lighter. I commented on it to the fork truck operator who brought them out. He said that they were all the same. When I got to the job site where I still had the Silver River product, I compared the shakes and found that the Harby shakes were 1/2 inch shorter and were 5/8 inch narrower than the Silver River product. I went back to ABC, told them of the issue and asked them if they had any of the old label (Silver River) that I could exchange. The store manager acted as if I was nuts and that there was no difference, but he said that I could waste peoples time and look around. They only had one pallet and they were all the same smaller product by Harby Imports. I went back and opened up the bundle. The inside shakes were inferior with some having ragged or broken ends. Also, about 1/3 of the bundle had top spines that did not meet all the way along the top of the stapled ridge cap. These are inferior and smaller ridge cap shakes and not worth buying. The labor is the same to put them up but quality of your end product will suffer.

    DO NOT ORDER BRICK SUPPLIES HERE…read more If you want customer service that cares about even the smallest order go to Illinois Brick in DesPlaines. We had nothing but trouble with their sales rep. Jeff Theis. He "helped" us order the wrong stone and then tried to turn the whole issue on us. We ended up having to return what he ordered and go to Illinois Brick. It cost us 2 weeks on our building scheduled and more money to get something in stock that matched what we needed. Even after going to the store and asking for help, all I got was the brush off. I understand when you are only spending a little over $5000 this may seem like small potatoes to this business, but to a homeowner that is alot of money. The customer service we got at Illinois Brick was the exact opposite of CMI. So very disappointing to be treated with such disregard. The sales rep was actually LAUGHING at me over this issue. Such a disgrace for a customer based business. So I guess if you are a homeowner and not a big brick installer, GO ELSEWHERE!

    Excellent masonry supply company. CMI has a good selection of brick, stone and manufactured stone…read more The have a full line of all necessary masonry supplies. The prices are competitive compared to Illinois Brick Company on all brick and stone, but their pricing g is excellent on masonry supplies including limestone sills. CMI is family owned, their service is great, they blow Illinois Brick out of the water.
