Simkins Hallin has buying power!

The more you buy, the less you pay; that’s true across all markets and all businesses. The lumber industry is no different so in order to stay well ahead of the big box stores Simkins Hallin has formed many alliances over the last decade. One of the largest, and most powerful is our membership in LMC. LMC members are small to medium sized independent lumber yards across the country that, when combined, purchase over a billion dollars worth of material each year. This volume ensures us the most competitive prices which we naturally pass on to our customers.
These purchasing relationships are just one of many things Simkins Hallin does behind-the-scenes in order to bring you the best service, best products, at the best price.

Composite Decking

Composite Decking Comes of Age

It’s a common product cycle; a revolutionary product is released, early adopters pay a premium and are sometimes plagued by quality issues, but eventually the product gets widely accepted, manufacturing is refined and prices become more reasonable. Well, let us introduce you to ModernView composite decking.

ModernView produces a product that looks like real wood but offers the consistency and maintenance free usability of an engineered product. Its LEED certified and offers a 25 year limited warranty. The decking is made from 95% recycled content. Architects, builders, and homeowners will all appreciate and benefit from the almost limitless possibilities that can be achieved when using a versatile product like ModernView decking.

The two most significant benefits…It represents a substantial savings over name brand composite decking, and it’s available locally only at Simkins Hallin. Want to know more, check out the manufacturers website, or give one of our building material sales team members a call.
