What a fantastic place to visit if you are looking for lumber and specialty woods.for your next project. The selection was great with good prices. Lots of variety to choose from in the specialty area including a selection of reclaimed lumber too. Stop in, it will be worth your time!

This place has the high end building materials and tools for construction and cabinet making. What a great selection of wood for all your woodworking projects!

Called them asked if they had finished red oak Quarter round.They told me they did, I sent my employee down there to find out it’s unfinished no problem. So after we stained them, and cut them realized every piece is a different size!! What’s with that?Tried to call multiple times since Saturday but nothing.

One of only a handful of places to get high quality wood and wood products in Humboldt county.

For years this place has been my favorite store to shop for wood working/hardware/anything & everything/lumber/exotic wood. Today the crew there were all friendly & attentive to me & my search for a jointer. After much time & careful consideration I was given a great deal on this 6” porter cable. Thank you Almquist for helping me hobble along on my woodworking journey & for my excellent deal on this quality tool.The other picture is of my kitchen ceiling which my husband and I finished in 2005 but 1/2 of the ceiling had never been stained-the other half was faded because a drop ceiling had been under that half. So the beams and the ceiling were all there they were just very discolored/mismatched. We took a plank down & brought the board into Almquist and they made THE matching stain for us. Perfectly. The knots that you see on half of the ceiling in the picture are colored in by hand with black permanent marker by yours truly. That was actually one of our first experiences & we have been coming back ever since.

Good clean store. Much to see here.

Good quality tools. Awesome selection of lumber. friendly staff. A +

Excellent Humboldt lumber company with a wide range of choices, great prices, friendly and helpful employees.

They had what I wanted and the price was good too.

Interesting selection of wood species. Large supply of lumber. Limited hardware, hardscape and fasteners.

Nice place to get wood from. They have different types to choose from and great prices. Staff is friendly. We had to load the lumber in our truck ourselves (which is fine). Good location and lots of parking.

They need to Work on giving customers the right information when they call before coming in.

I love almquist lumber! It truly is a wood enthusiasts dream land.

Not busy. Good help. We are lucky to have a special lumber retailer here... You wont be disappointed...

Wow!!!! Their wood selection is amazing and they have a lot of woodworking supplies and finishes. Very impressed!!!

Wonderful choice of local and exotic lumber

Always the most helpful people around. Never had a bad experience here. Best selection of fine lumber around. Dont have what you need? Theyll get it for you or suggest a better solution.

Ive been going to Almquist Lumber for years Best Place for wood Ever !!! Mr Kevin

Lot of good wood, friendly staff, and decent prices. They can resize the wood for you to take home too.

Great service. Super knowledgeable and took the time with me. I cant remember the name of the guy that helped me (he was really young) but he even handpicked the best pieces to use (I wasnt even thinking about that) and helped me cut everything I needed to spec. Definit going to be my go to spot for lumber everything.

This place is great. John came through for us again. He edge glued two pieces of pine for us so we could complete our project. We are lucky to have such a great lumber yard here, large inventory of different woods, friendly, helpfull and knowledgeable employees.

The only place to go in Humboldt County for domestic and exotic hardwoods. Great selection in the large warehouse. Lots of high quality tools and woodworking supplies. Very helpful staff.

This is the best lumberyard that I have ever been to. Their selection is outstanding and their staff are knowledgeable. I build a set of kitchen cabinets with a selection of Red Oak hardwood and plywood from this store. I bought a few pieces of red oak from a nearby lumber yard prior to discovering Almquist and it is remarkable the difference in quality of wood. Almquist clearly makes a lot of effort to keep a premium selection of hardwood in their inventory.Even if youre not interested in woodwoorking, take a walk through their store anyway, they have a selection of handmade furniture there that you cant get anywhere else.

Super helpful. Im an artist and they are always willing to go out of their way, chopping big uns into little uns for me!😁

Just delivering Lumber there never purchased anything from them employees seem to be pretty cool, especially that guy Jeff

Very accommodating, and extremely helpful.

The Wood selection never ends. Dreamland for a woodworker or Carver. I come here sometimes just to get inspiration, but always leave with a board or two.. The staff could not be more friendly or helpful.They bend over backwards helping, from building a huge cutting block or buying your burl slab they are the best. Almquist is a special store second to none.

Fine woods very wide selection including exotics, glad they are here

Definitely a great spot to go for either professional contractors or weekend hobbyists. We picked up some really amazing looking purple hardwood and spent way longer than expected browsing the tools and the wood yard. There is a HUGE selection of everything and it’s all good to great quality, no flimsy tools or trashy wood. We were helped by a down to earth guy who actually knew a lot about millling and construction and had experience too. I would recommend this place over anything in the area or even out of the area.

Wide range of lumber from popular wood used in building construction to exotic wood for fine woodworking. They also have a good range of hardware, paint and other finishing supplies. Many beautiful pieces of furniture and other products made by local woodworkers. Come and discover even more. Friendly, knowledgeable employees are there to help you with your building project.

Great service, they worked with me to figure out then provide exactly what I needed. Thanks

Love this place! Excellent selection of materials and the customer service was outstanding! I was assisted by a gentleman named John and he was friendly, personable, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. We had a nice chat. I felt very welcome and left with all the information and materials needed for my project. I would definitely recommend Almquist lumber!

This is the woodworking spot in humboldt. The staff is always helpful, and they have a wonderful selection of lumber with fairly decent prices. The staff will help you to get what you need too if they don’t have it in stock. I’d recommend people stop in and check out the front showroom, they keep a lot of beautiful woodwork in the front on display from local makers.

This place is so much fun to browse. So many beautiful kinds of wood displayed and wood experts to answer questions and explain how to treat and use the product. Well worth a long visit!

We found the perfect piece of wood for our mantel. The employees were knowledgeable and very helpful. Highly recommend!

My Favorite local Humboldt Lumber Company!👍

Great place to get lumber and any products related to the trade. Helpful staff, great service. They also sell compost by the yard and they even have a small area for wine tasting with a local vendor!

Almquist is a woodworkers candy store, they have everything. Everything! Name a species...yea, they have that. Purpleheart, bloodwood, rosewood, oak, maple, walnut, beech, mahogany, and on, and on. The staff is friendly and the price is right. Obviously, locals all know about this place, but if youre a woodworker visiting Humboldt County, plan to spend a little time and money here.
