Best lumber store in New Orleans, Louisiana (LA) 2025

It is what followed the unfortunate incident that deserves the 5 star rating! Here is the buzz cut... I placed an order for 60 pieces of 16' specialty pine. with Michael the sales person who has been with the company for many years, To my dismay, the order was not fulfilled as directed by the retail manager. I will normally rate them a one star for this action except the staff and the young man Matt, who is one of the owner's, deserves accolades for their hard work and commitment to the Bywater & Marigny communities. Matt's brother in-law, Mark contacted me directly, as an owners representative, to resolve the issue. The Owners I believe wish to improve the property and to grow the business. Matt who is at the yard daily is an amazing young man who is commendable for his dedication to his father's legend. It takes grit to admit fault and the staff and owners took the matter to heart and are trying to turn the experience into a way to improve customer service at the yard, I placed the order with a competitor of theirs, which is a reminder that we can all improve and do better. I will trust the staff at Wilson Bourg Lumber will work harder for all of us in the community and live up to the five star rating given to them today! ~B
