Cardinal Home Center

It's about the only place that has quality lumber in Central Virginia - and I mean it! I work for a construction company and if you want a job we'll done, finding straight lumber with minimal knots, is right here (not saying there isn't bad wood here, there's always something not worth using), but customer service is exceptional, and custom ordering is good. Use Cardinal Home Center for your best jobs.

I do business with Cardinal Home Center at least 3 days a week. They always have all the building materials i need and if they do not have it, they will get it quickly. Special order items are a breeze and I can always count on the knowledgeable staff to help me out. I usually deal with Jay Rutledge (sales staff). He helps to solve any issues I may have and gives great recommendations on material selections. He keeps up to date on all the current trends and gives suggestions on alternative materials that can be ordered if they do not have something in stock and is always there to help. I can always count on Jay to get the job done. Thanks Cardinal Home Center!

We work with Cardinal regularly to supply materials for our projects at Bear Creek Outdoor Living. Jay is our representative and he does an awesome job of getting us what we need and keeping us up-to-date on anything that’s in progress. It’s awesome to work with someone who is knowledgeable and that we know will follow through and get things done.

Jay in building material sales has been my go-to for years spanning my work with various local builders. He is both knowledgeable and most importantly responsive! I would highly recommend anyone with questions about a building project go seek out Jay at the Crozet Cardinal store.

Love shopping at this local store. It’s rare to get amazing customer service these days and Jay always goes above/beyond and is my go-to for anything related to home renovations/improvement. Take your business to him.

In Jan 2021, I was introduced to Jay Rutledge at the former Blue Ridge Builders Supply, in Crozet, newly purchased at the time by Cardinal Home Center. For the last 2 years, as a custom home builder based in Ivy, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with him! He has made my job much easier, for many reasons; being able to text him questions & orders, vs formal phone calls or emails, has streamlined my process. He’s proactive in his approach, he follows up with his vendors, on special orders, and he’s an outside-the-box thinker (which I really appreciate), to name a few of the things I love about working with him. I’m proud to call Jay a friend now, and I’d like to let Cardinal know, they have a great man on their team in Crozet.

Thank you!

We called in to pick up some materials & Jay Rutledge at the sales desk was awesome, very helpful, & got us in & out in a timely matter. Highly recommend.

Nice Local Hardware Store!! Awesome Service!

Michael in the paint department has been so helpful. He is also very knowledgeable and personable!

We have had a good relationship with Blue Ridge Builders Supply for a while now. They have the best selection of materials and some of the best customer service out there! Every time I come into the shop everyone is super friendly. We are truly grateful to do business with these guys!

I've been coming here for several years and Jay has been an amazing salesperson. Always willing to help!!

Great place for contractors, but also serves the community. Great customer service. Kelly, in the Benjamin Moore paint store is the most helpful. She is extremely knowledgeable.

My favorite building supply store. Only downside is the location is a bit out of the way for me. Everything else is 10 stars.

Great local company! Excellent staff and products! Great commercials too. (Disclaimer: They sponsor me for endorsement. But these words are my own). ~ Les

Just an awesome local building supply company...

Sure you may pay a little extra for some stuff, but they treat people so great here and have given me some small stuff here and there for free even (which was not expected, but certainly appreciated!!)

Customer service is bar none here and I would recommend this company to anyone!!

I have used this supply for almost 15 years on a regular basis. The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and honest, and they stock all the standard building materials and parts. I prefer to support a well run locally owned business like this over the anonymous big box stores like Home Depot and Lowes.

Bert is a great salesman, very helpful in my house building process.

They were very helpful as always. I am glad that the former Blue Ridge still delivers small-town cordiality.

Always impressed with this place. Great inventory and employees that know which products work best in each case.

I went to the paint store looking for materials and was help very greatly that was with Kelly and she was so awesome thank you
