According to a press release from R.P. Lumber Company, they have acquired Kieffer Lumber in Mount Carmel, Illinois. This makes the family-owned hardware and building materials retailer’s 59th Illinois location, and its 85th location overall.
In addition to offering high-quality lumber, shingles, siding, drywall and other building materials at competitive prices, R.P. Lumber will also feature a robust selection of hardware merchandise ranging from power tools and paint to plumbing and electrical supplies. Their design team will specialize in designing everything from decks and patios to cabinets and countertops for kitchens and bathrooms. And from measurement to installation, they can help with doors and windows of every type. DIY homeowners will appreciate the expert advice and friendly service, and professional contractors – large and small – can rely on a full-service experience including online ordering and job site delivery.
The new store began operating as R.P. Lumber on Saturday, September 24. The Kieffer Lumber team will remain on board - serving customers as they always have - while the company will look to hire additional staff and provide additional products and services to the region.
