LaValley Building Supply and Preferred Building Systems...
LaValley Building Supply was founded by Harold and Geraldine LaValley in 1962. Today it is a second generation owned business headed by Lawrence Huot. It is the largest independently owned building materials supplier in Vermont and New Hampshire. From the beginning, we have strived to be always the low cost provider of building materials and services. The desire to provide our customers with quality products at prices lower than any of our competitors can sustain, led us into manufacturing many years ago.
In 1962 our business was started in Newport, NH, where we manufacture roof trusses, wall panels, door units, kitchen countertops, as well as operate a custom planing mill. In Middleton, NH we operate one of New England's largest state of the art saw mills along with dry kilns, planing and resaw operations. Over the years we've added convenient New Hampshire locations in Claremont, West Lebanon, North Walpole, Dover, Middleton, Meredith and Hampton. In 2001 we expanded into Vermont by acquiring stores in Rutland and Ludlow. Our growth has allowed us to maintain consistently competitive prices. We are known today as LaValley - Middleton Building Supply, Inc (LMBS)
As a member of the Lumberman's Merchandising Corporation, we combine our purchasing power with over 300 other independent lumberyards and home centers. With over fifteen billion dollars in combined purchasing power and the additional assets of our own manufacturing of homes, garages, trusses, and lumber (from our own mill, Diprizio Pine Sales in Middleton, NH), we present to our valued customers, top quality merchandise, lumber, building systems, project solutions and more experience often at lower prices than the big national chains.
In early 2006 LaValley Building Supply purchased the old Holson-Burnes Photo Album factory in Claremont New Hampshire and retooled it to manufacture energy efficient modular homes. After almost a year of retooling, remodeling and research and development the first homes began rolling off the line in July. As we constantly strive to build a better product we have tested and retested and are constantly improving the process. We are now building homes that we are proud to offer to consumers in New England.
