I used them for our kitchen cabinets and it was great. They were super friendly and helpful, the cabinets are high quality and are priced really well. I would definitely recommend McCarren. They were always very responsive throughout the process and made the whole process simple and seamless. Very happy customer.

Great place for home project supplies. If they have what you need, you can save some real cash. They also do custom orders. Very helpful staff.

This is an excellent store for building supplies. I got a barn door slab that needs a little rehab but is still fantastic. It is about an hour drive for me but was worth it!

Worth the drive. Selections vary, but make sure to check your measurements for what you need. I forgot. so I love that they will hold your selections for 48 hours so you can confirm. I called in and made my purchase. Very helpful employees!
