Graves Lumber Co

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 February 2013
“We used Graves to purchase our Kitchen Cabinets and they were great! Robin helped us decide what design made the most sense for us and was able to keep us in our desired price point while still getting exactly what we wanted. The product was in earlier than expected which helped keep our project ahead of schedule and any smal issues that came up were handled immediately with no questions asked. She even helped us resolve an issue with another product vendor that was not as easy to work with.”

“They installed quartz countertops in my kitchen. The selection was top of the line. The designer came out and helped me work out some problems in the layout. The guy that measured was dead on exact. The house was built in 1966 so he had to contend with settling. They did a seamless job of splicing. It's beautiful and I couldn't be happier.”

What should I consider when choosing building materials?


One of the biggest challenges when building or renovating a home is deciding where to spend and where to save on building materials. One way to balance your spend is to use more expensive building materials, such as stone, timber panelling, and rain screens, sparingly, or to substitute a lower installation cost for a higher material cost.

When comparing costs, also take into account energy efficiency and lifespan. Some windows, for example, are more energy efficient than others; and while they may have a bigger price tag, the savings you make from insulation will, over time, offset the higher upfront cost. The same goes for timber flooring – often the cheaper the material, the sooner it will need to be replaced.

Raw materials and how they’re applied – including everything from metal roofing and timber panelling, to board-formed concrete and porcelain tiles – can provide infinite design possibilities. If you’re working with an Akron, OH builder, architect or designer, they will likely have favourite building materials they like to work with, as well as favourite suppliers. Ask them for examples of how the material has been used in past projects, and seek out alternatives for comparisons.

Questions to ask a supplier of timber and building materials in Akron, OH:


  • Where do you source your supplies from?
  • How is your timber harvested?
