What People Say About Us
“After a small remodel I found it difficult to find siding to match my existing. By chance I stopped at Southside lumber. Not only was it in stock it was very reasonably priced and the guys that loaded it went out of there way to make sure it was safe to transport. I will go there first next time and I’m telling all my friends in Marion.” –Marcena
“Very knowledgeable employees. They truly want to help the customer. So much better than a big box store.” –Kevin
“Southside Lumber has great products and very knowledgeable, helpful people. We were replacing an old bathtub with new shower, and chose the Onyx walls, base, seat and shelves. When we installed the base, I realized the color was off from the sample we chose, and also darker. Southside worked with Onyx, and they replaced the entire package in a very timely manner. We are very happy with this purchase, as well as previous ones from Southside!” -Customer
“Used South Side for building materials several times. Most recently this winter when I replaced my roof. Quality products and helpful people; would recommend. ” -Brett
