Totem Building Supplies Edmonton

I always wondered how the smaller hardware stores like Home Hardware and Totem can keep up with the corporate juggernauts that are Rona, Home Depot, and now Lowe's.

After shopping around for prices for some landscaping supplies, I understand now why Totem still exists after all this time.

Some of their prices are comparable if not better than the bigger stores. What I was most impressed with was the depth of knowledge the staff has when it comes to projects around the home. Unlike the bigger stores, the staff was readily available to answer any questions especially with their giant service desk right in the middle.

Speaking of prices, signing up for their card gives you an additional 10% off your purchase up to $250 in reduction. Their card allows some pretty attractive financing options such as don't pay for 3, 6, 10 months or equal payments as well.

They even have free popcorn for those who have to bring in their kids!

Don't be fooled by the notion you'll be getting better quality and service at the bigger stores. It's the personal conversations that you have with experts that makes the difference.

the staff were very helpfull in helping me find the correct stuff to insulate the windows for winter and i would be glad to returnin the near future for my other household chores

Totem was the perfect source for all building supplies and information relating to my garage contrcution. I would recommend Totel Buiding supply to anyone for their lumber needs. Prices also proved to be better than some of the other home improvement stores

i had a good shopping experience. They had a good selection of quality products, all at a reasonable price. They are comparable to home depot. I was very happy with the purchase and I would shop there again.

We bought aprox 1000 sq feet of laminate for our home. IT was a great product and a good price. The staff were very friendly and helpful and we are happy with the laminate. I would recommend Totem to other home owners because of their good prices and friendly staff

Me and my husband stopped by our local totem to pick up some standard 2x4s for some temporary walls we needed to build to remove a load bearing wall. Service was quick and respectable as well as people in hardware were very helpful.

Whenever I need credible advice I can stop by Totem and get some good tips and answers. They are ready to help with even minor woodworking repairs. Good prices as well.

The new Totem Building Supply store in southeast Edmonton (1003 Parsons Rd.) just had their grand opening on the weekend of March 17, 2010.
I was very impressed with the size of the new store and selection of goods. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and best of all, they had popcorn to munch on while one shopped.
Fantastic prices on some grand opening specials.
I will be back!
