Question : What is the best place to buy basement remodeling materials?
I am in the planning phase of finishing our basement, and wondered where the best place was to buy materials and supplies. I’m asking more about drywall, lumber, screws, etc. since this will be the most expensive part of the first phase. Are the Big Box stores (Lowes, Home Depot, etc.) the most cost effective choice, or is there a more cost effective alternative?
The first poster brought up an interesting point. I’m located in the Kansas City area, so local options would be the best solution.

Idk. Hope this helps! GOOD LUCK!
If your material costs are over $ 1,500 go to Home Depot contractor desk. Tell them you would like pricing form “the bid room”. When you give them a material list, they run their regular pricings and then cut At least 8% off, and more if the order is substantial. Take a material list to multiple stores and get quotes. They are free. Then compare pricings line by line, and you can save some money by getting material from multiple sources. Hope this helps
