Liberty Cedar Shopping Guide: An Informed Visitor’s Perspective
Why You Should Visit
- Exceptional Customer Service: You’ll encounter consistently friendly and helpful staff. Multiple reviewers highlighted the exceptional service from Kaleb, Larry, Kevin, Paul Snell, Brian (yard manager), and others. They go above and beyond to assist with project planning, material selection, precise cuts (Kevin), and even delivery coordination.
- High-Quality Lumber: The cedar is consistently praised for its gorgeous appearance and superior quality. Reviewers specifically mentioned stunning tongue and groove clear red cedar. They even claim to offer unique, top-quality cedarwood in Rhode Island.
- Wide Product Selection: Liberty Cedar carries a variety of cedar products. You’ll find tongue and groove cedar, deck boards, custom moulding profiles, and even hard-to-find items like pre-cut cedar plugs.
- Efficient and Professional Delivery: While one reviewer mentioned a less-than-ideal experience with a delivery driver (Mike), multiple others praised the delivery service, noting respectful and conscientious drivers (though specific driver names weren’t always listed) and on-time delivery coordination.
- Competitive Pricing: One shopper noted getting a great price on beautiful boards, even better than other suppliers, making the trip from out of state worthwhile. Another reviewer found the price per linear foot very reasonable.
- Knowledgeable Staff Assistance: Staff readily offer guidance on projects. Expect assistance with material selection, as one reviewer had a staff member walk them through the lumber yard, suggesting suitable boards.
- Customizable Orders: They handle custom moulding profiles with rapid turnaround times. They also accommodate small orders (as exemplified by the customer who ordered a small quantity for deck repairs).
Why You Might Consider Alternatives
- Inconsistent Delivery Experiences: Be aware that while most delivery experiences are positive, at least one reviewer reported a rude and unprofessional interaction with a delivery driver, and a less-than-ideal lumber placement.
