Fitch Lumber & Hardware Reviews

Kate Ross

Ordered some lumber via email for 'curbside pickup'. They were very responsive and had quote to me very quickly. I was able to pick up the lumber the same afternoon. Curbside pickup was also very easy. My issue was with the quality of the lumber. When I got it home I found that much of the lumber is not usable. There are substantial cracks through the middle of the boards and major dents and chips on the edges. Great customer service but quality of lumber product is unfortunately not as good as big box stores.

Allison Ross

Friendly, knowledge staff and very helpful woodshop, 'the Chopping Block.' Great resource in the area!

Jedediah Seltzer

I always stop by here if I need something small for repairs. freindly staff and it has a great location. Prices are competitive. just make sure you check hours.

Helpful hometown store. Look at what you can make with their help! They helped me make a spruce top for this strumstick.

Colin Starnes

Mac runs a tight ship. Love shopping with these guys. Good support quslity supplies, and that old school neighborhood appeal. My go to in the area! Grey Star woodworks tries to shop here as much as possible.

We used Fitch during a window replacement project in 2017-2018 and I would not recommend them. Our carpenter and architect measured the rough openings (brick ranch). Fitch is supposed to be the expert on Marvin and use the measurements to find the best fit. However, they conservatively took out valuable sqaure inches of light with a bad RO clearance. Our carpenter had to add a lot of unnecessary shims to make it fit. I understand they aren't the GC but they should have at least showed interest in getting the project right since we were giving them $7k+ worth of business. Additionally I caught several errors on quotes made by Fitch's Marvin associate during the interaction. When we complained, another associate reluctantly came by and stood on the site saying nothing and seemed even more clueless. Careless and lacking customer service.

If you're looking for wood or siding that the general hardware stores don't stock (and let's be honest, that list is sadly long), Fitch's is the go-to place for all your other needs. Excellent service by knowledgeable staff, with everything and anything you'll ever need, conveniently located off Highway 54. Perfect.

Steven Tadus

Great place. They have top quality, hard to find sealants, such as NP1.

Carrie Pandya

Fitch Lumber and Hardware is a locally owned store that has been in business for years in Carrboro. One of the reasons for that is their knowledgeable, friendly staff. I also love that the store holds events for children and for the community. I always leave there feeling good. I highly recommend a visit!

Suzanne Gould

This place is a classic for a very good reason. If you were giving grades to a business, this one would get A+. Great selection of hardware and lumber, excellent customer service and very reasonable prices that sometimes beat the big box stores. Today I needed a specific size of 1/2 ' plywood, and it was created in their shop on the spot where I waited 2 minutes, and then put in my car for me. That's what I mean by great customer service!Fitch's is very convenient in Carrboro and I always want to buy local when I can.

Truck driver u better know how to blind side back with no help

I have had mixed experiences here in the years Ive lived in Carrboro. At one point, I actually swore never to go back because I went in to get a key copied and the person who helped me could not have been more unpleasant. But after about two years of avoiding the place because of that experience, I found myself in possession of some leftover wood from a family members project, and not much experience building anything so on a downtown walk, I stopped by the Lumber side for inspiration. I was nervous of interacting with employees because of my prior experiences, but someone I didnt recognize from previous years (I believe his name was Lee) approached me so politely that I let my guard down and told him my situation. I told him I had all this wood that was too good to just burn, and I really wanted to try to build something simple to start with. After talking over ideas for a while, we landed on floating wall shelves, since I could manage those with the materials and tools I was comfortable with. Lee wrote down easy-to-follow instructions for me on paper, and the next day I tried them out. Everything went well and now I have perfect extra shelving in my bathroom for all my little bits and pieces of makeup and stuff. The whole thing was so pleasant that now I want to try something else a little more elaborate, and I will definitely go to Fitch Lumber for help and supplies especially since that particular employee provided such a positive and helpful experience.

Come here weekly to purchase materials for construction and home maintenance needs. Excellent staff, easily to get in touch with and receive help, great locksmith, very convenient location compared to other similar stores

Jan Beckwith

When we asked Fitch Lumber to send us their top of the line decking boards for our new deck, we got the BEST boards around!! Our new deck is 99% finished and it is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! It included two screened rooms off of the two master bedrooms and when we say screened rooms, we meant screened rooms, underneath as well as all the way around so NO bugs of any kind can get through!!! Yes, 5 stars or 10 stars if there was one, to Fitch Lumber!!! You deserve it!!!

Jen Gad

Even though this hardware store is a bit more expensive, the employees there are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Plus it's great to know that I'm supporting a local business.

Paul Weiser

Went to have a key made. Quick, accurate, not expensive. Perfect.

Becky Rohn

Seems to have everything you need for a project. Fantastic people who work there

Andrew Neal

I breathe easy the minute I walk inside!

Joy Bailey

I couldn't get anything today but the people here very friendly. Gives u the feeling of old towns,good thing. Nothing like Lowes... Stuff here can't find other places.

Colin Starnes

Best lumber yard around. A true family run, small town company.

Oren Abeles

This is, quite simply, the best hardware store I've ever been to. Let's start with the staff: everyone who works here understands pretty much every element of hardware. And everyone is eager to help and has useful advice that makes figuring out what you really need easy.Then there's the selection: once or twice I've gone to Lowes thinking I'll have more choice or find a better price on what I'm looking for. In all cases I've gone back to Fitch and found that I should have just started there in the first place. And let me speak to some of the more negative comments below: never have I ever experienced a lack of courtesy from the people in this store because I'm not a professional builder. Quite the opposite. Instead, I've had salespeople spend long amounts of time helping me figure out purchases that were under five dollars. Even my dog loves Fitch. The cashiers keep a bin of dog biscuits behind the counter.

David Luyendyk

Fitch Lumber is great. We've used them to supply windows for our home and windows and doors for our office condos. We did a lot of research on where to buy windows and talked a lot of people before we found Fitch. They're straightforward and don't make you sit through an aggravating sales pitch like we had with some other companies. Fitch's customer service is excellent and their prices are reasonable. Fitch is great for someone who is looking for value and not just the cheapest price.

mike kast

Convenient if you're in Chapel Hill/Carrboro.

Josh Tennant

I have had a great experience with Fitch Lumber, and will continue to shop there. Staff is courteous and helpful; even came out to my house to fix a tricky problem. A great 'buy local' option with good selection and reasonable prices.

Adrian Ilie

Very helpful staff. Not the lowest prices around, but worth the trip.

Mark Mine

Fitch is a return to yester-year when service was king. I always leave feeling well served at a fair price.

Molly Jenkins

I've always had very positive experiences there! They've always been super helpful and patient and kind when I've had questions about anything. Never been sexist or demeaning. Prices are very fair. Really encouraging. Context: I'm a young woman just getting into the diy repair thing, and my husband and I are in our first *nice* rental house. Fitches is our go-to.

jean freeman windom

Great old fashioned hardware

Clement McDonald

Cool place

Bruce Su

Some mouldings are actually less expensive than the big box stores.

Alexis Girault

If you have a big project they will be interested and helpful, if you are not a regular and need a couple things here and there you could feel that they lack some courtesy.

Karen Kaufman

I love supporting this small business:) They have a good variety of products

Peter Buch

If you are a builder, their service is the best around. If you are a homeowner with a job, their hours are the worst around.They're also guilty of the same thing the big box stores are guilty of. They will have 7 of the 10 things you need to do your job, the other 3 will be out of stock. In other words, you can't do your job.

Timothy Sonnek

Excellent customer service, and surprisingly large selection due to the small size of the store.

Darrell Dean

Got help right away v

marc atkins

Family friendly, good folks !

Michael O'Reilly

Utterly fantastic.

Damon L. Council

Lovely Place

Kate McFarland Bruce

Finally a hardware store where they staff doesn't mansplain to women customers!

Tracey Oliveto

However, if you're NOT a builder, customer service is ridiculously rude and you almost have to beg for it. I've been putting up with it for years in order to support a local business, but i'm done.]
