Building Supplies in Charleston
Our Charleston facility is our first physical storefront outside of North Carolina, and we have loved becoming a part of the Charleston builders community. Just as with our North Carolina outfitters, we are committed to providing high-quality products at a great value to every customer. On top of that, our focus on customer service means we will always put you and your project first. Whether this is the first time we’ve worked together, or we have worked with you for decades, we are excited to help Charleston grow to new heights.
Our local team knows all the ins and outs of the city, and we are excited to provide building supplies to match every project and development. With a rapidly expanding number of residents calling Charleston home, we will always bring the best quality products to every worksite: on time and at an incredible value. Supporting our family at Professional Builders Supply is always close to our hearts, and that starts with continued dedication and focus on providing the best for our Charleston customers–new and old alike.
From subcontracting projects to purely product-based sales, your business is genuinely respected and appreciated. Give us the opportunity to show you the difference … it’s about the service!!!®

What The Community Is Saying About Us…
“In the fast paced world of residential construction, it is absolutely refreshing to work with the dedicated men and women of Professional Builders Supply. Every aspect of their operation is top notch! Billing inquiries are handled immediately, material deliveries are timely, accurate, neat, and wrapped in plastic to prevent damage and discourage theft; our sales rep is not only visible in our office, but visible on every one of our job sites where he has caught errors and recommends products and best practices; their inventory management system is incredible, we do not wait for any materials. Every detail, from the superior professionalism of the drivers to the accuracy of a credit invoice exemplifies the commitment that Professional Builders Supply has made to us as a partner in the home building process. I would encourage every builder to use Professional Builders Supply.”
Ward Russell“One of the true marks of a successful organization is to understand who and what are important. The entire organization at Professional Builders Supply knows that it’s customers and the communities they serve are truly #1. However, they do not stop there, they take it forward and actually donate their time, talent, and treasure. I know the asks are many for them and yet every time I reach out, I know they try to understand not how it will increase their brand, but how their involvement will make an impact in people’s lives.”
Chris LaTurno“I work for a family owned business where the owner stands behind their products and service every day with pride. That’s how Professional Builders Supply does business – they compete on price but they are unbeatable on service, always going the extra mile. It is that attitude that makes long-term business relationships possible and profitable. Van and his team give back to their community in many ways, too. What more could anyone ask for?”
