G T Building Supply

I was in need of a small window screen repair shop and was off to another part of the city when I happened upon the fine folks at G T Building Supply. Johnny Law the supervisor was able to replace my torn screen in a matter of minutes even though they were a little busy. The price was VERY reasonable and I will go there from now on whenever my daughters dog gets overly active on a window.

Either these people are nitwits or they have a listening problem! Our contractor had recommend this place for purchasing pre-​hung exterior doors. We arrived on a Friday afternoon in late June and we met by a charming young Asian woman. We described specifically that our interest lie in an exterior fiberglass door with a glass pane. She seemed dumbfounded and showed us various catalogs of doors, but not what we wanted. She then asked if we wanted an interior door or a shower door and we repeatedly told her that only an exterior fiberglass door with a glass pane. She just couldn’t understand what we were saying even though we showed her a drawing.
Finally, she contacted an Asian man whom she called «boss». He was hanging around jiving with a bunch of other dudes. When we told him what we wanted, he brusquely dismissed us and said they don’t carry this item. We think they just didn’t want to serve us because we didn’t fit their customer profile.
We certainly will not patronize this place again.

I have pretty good experience here. We ordered several windows twice about 1 year apart. Each time the windows came on time and the service is excellent.
The ladies really know their windows. We ended up buying Simonton windows because we feel its a better quality than Milguard (sp). And Simonton is lifetime guarantee.
I would recommend this place. Their lead time is just 1 – 2 weeks. Very easy to work with.

Don’t wast your time with this company
I paid then asking price of 3200 $ for two shower doors. Promised to deliver it in 2 weeks, I had to call call then after 3 weeks to see what the problem because they didn’t call me for appointment. Then they gave me bs store ha a told me they will come in few days. In few days there truck broke down and they didn’t come. When they actually came, they realize they didn’t measure stuff correct and BOTH doors don’t FIT ! they asked me to wait 2 More weeks. I said ok.
Today I called and yes. It’s. It ready and need one more week. I said that’s enough and cancel my order. Waiting on refund

I asked to send me a quote for patio door, i sent him an mail someone else reply on his email, and she said she can order and will take 1 week but have to order on Thursday, i called on Thursday to order the door she said no i have to order before 12 noon, and i asked her to send me an invoice so i will be able to look at it and order on time she didn’t do and didn’t send me this invoice and i sent her email asking for patio door invoice and when i called next Thursday to complain why she never reply on email i asked for invoice and need to order this patio order she said no we have to order on before Wednesday i asked her again you made anther mistake she said yeah.
they don’t care about customer and time and don’t care about there business they just work with no time frame.
when i asked about Manager to complain and see what to do, she said manager is out and he has no number or message to leave for him.
i called back to Asking about this manager she put me on hold and came back saying he is not here.
don’t deal with business and don’t lose time or effort because they don’t care about you or there customer.
they are not professional and they don’t do any professional work.

Okay. I needed windows. We went to Home Depot. We had Anderson Windows come out. It was going to be expensive so we decided to do them a few at a time. I called a bunch of people on Unilocal for quotes and they refused to install one or two windows at a time.
I live in the Sunset and I visited two Chinese-​owned building supply places: GT and one out farther on Lawton or Kirkham. Both had good prices on individual windows. I went with GT.
The reason I chose GT was that they guarantee their windows. They also do the installation at a fair price. The other company in the area didn’t have their own people to install. You had to hire someone.
So. The windows. First I bought one for the kitchen. Everything is great. Then I bought three more for the back of the house. All windows are Simonton and look and work great.
The owner comes out and supervises the work. He does the measurements and makes sure everything is ordered right and installed right.
The women in the office are so nice. They will work with you on price and let you know the status of the order all along. (Note — windows are made to orde by size. When the window company is backed up, it takes time. This is the same for ALL orders from a particular company.)
I would highly recommed GT if you want windows done for a great price.

I would give it a zero star if possible… This co is a dealer for Milgard… My contractor ordered a 60“H x 80“W Milgard Tuscany replacement window on 10−17−2012…He was told it would take approximately 2weeks. On 11-​5-​2012 this company told my contractor that they were waiting for an email from Milgard about the delivery time this week. It sounded a little fishy to me so I called Milgard directly. I spoke to 2 people Lee and Kim who handles the dealers in San Francisco. I was advised that this dealer should not have told me that they were expecting an email from them about the window. There were no order placed for this specific size window. I was furious because my contractor needed this window to start my project… I filed a BBB complaint requesting for them to refund the deposit to my contactor. Since they did not place the order in the first place I will take my business to their competitor Chu Supply which I never had any problems… Chu supply’s owner is always professional and efficient. I will also send a letter to Milgard Corporate in Tacoma WA about this dealer…
