Classic old-school hardware store and lumber yard that is part of a dying breed. Way larger and better stocked than its tiny hardware-bodega brethren - lots of dowels and wall/ceiling trim profiles, good selection of cast iron fittings for gas lines, multiple grades and veneers of 48x96 plywood, and a decent selection of dimensional lumber. Friendly and helpful staff, will cut sheets to size on a panel saw for a few bucks. Definitely beats a trip over a bridge to home depot for small quantities of lumber or sheeting.
I used to walk by this shop often when I lived in Tribeca, and thought what a unique old school vibe and signage this shop has. A great character for the neighborhood. I painted a portrait of the side alley of the store in my series of Disappearing New York, which you can see on my website, kovalfineart dot com.
Fully stocked with all the supplies you need to do handyman work!
Very helpful individuals at the counter. Its great to have a lumber yard available as well right there with kitchen and bathroom tiles sold by the case.
Sir you want make your shop website in less money because you have such a nice shop but you dont have a website
Good for lumber drywall and tools
Love this place! Smart, helpful, well stocked. A pleasure to support a local business!
Really great supplies and customer service
Needed some cut plywood for a small home improvement job. Went to another place first and they were rude and utterly unhelpful. The folks at Chinatown Building Supply were the exact opposite: they were courteous, helpful and efficient. A+ operation. Go to these guys first.
Awesome hardware store. Great customer service
I usually walk out of the way to pick up items from here!
Open early and close late. Knowledgeable and helpful staff. Very good inventory for such small place. Plumbing, electrical and general stuff, very decent selection. If you are doing jobs in Tribeca this is an emergency place to get stuff from. They also deliver.
Great staff. Good prices. They got what you need
Noting to say
Incredibly helpful and friendly staff, they have everything you would need from basic hardware and maintenance to full construction jobs. Its a great local cornerstone.
Chinatown Building Supply is a great Lumber Yard. They cut all the lumber I needed to size and delivered it for $20.00 I think delivery is free if you buy over $300 worth of stuff. Fair, Honest, Friendly staff
