50CelebratingYears

Richard Phillbrick– General Contractor

“I’ve been relying on Ricci Lumber for building materials, service and products for more that 25 years. What impresses me the most about the company is how there always seems to be the same names and faces at Ricci, which reflects how well Ed treats the staff. This treatment and level of service runs through the company and to its customers. Each of the workers make me feel like I’ve known them my whole life and it’s comforting to know I can rely on a lumber yard for a friendly atmosphere. Ricci has been very good to me over the years.”

Mike Coffey– Homeowner

“Over the past 34 years, I’ve remodeled my house several times and recently completed an addition. Throughout all of the projects and years of working on the house, I’ve relied on Ricci for pretty much all of the materials from faming, sheetrock, windows and doors to kitchen cabinets, hardwood flooring and granite countertops. I’ve been confident in working with Ricci because I know they supply quality products, are easy to work with and are always there when I need them. Every time I walk through their doors, I immediately feel comfortable knowing I’m going to be greeted by my first name and treated properly by their knowledgeable staff.”

Dennis Smith– Millpond Construction

“I have been going to Ricci for 30 years now and generally purchase hardware and a variety of miscellaneous materials. It’s nice to work with Ricci because they are a local lumber yard that provides good customer service.”

Steve Henson– Residential Contractor

“Since 1971, I’ve purchased products from Ricci for my business because the company is close to home, have good pricing, and the workers are good people. I actually worked for Mr. Ricci and Don Hayes when the company was Ricci Construction and know they take pride in their employees and customers. Ed, Pat and the management team have continued to do a great job of running the company.”

Ted Boisvert– Ted Boisvert Construction

“As a renovation contractor, I have relied on Ricci more than 30 years for a full spectrum of products and materials from lumber and nails to rope and screens. I find Ricci to be a full-service lumber yard I can trust to have most of my engineer hardware questions answered by their professional staff. If they don’t have the answer right away, they’ll research it and find it. I appreciate the fact that Pat and the staff take the time out of their days to help out when needed.”

Scott Moylan– Moylan Builders

“I enjoy working with Ricci because of the fact that they are family-owned and are conveniently located in the Seacoast. I’ve been purchasing a variety of construction, framing and trim materials from Ricci for more that 20 years. Over the past 10 years or so, I’ve noticed Ed and the staff have done a nice job being personable with contractors and staying on top of new products. I can always trust a handful of employees for their materials, knowledge, and on time deliveries.”

Walter Liff– Steeling Nature

“I like to think of Ricci as a hidden treasure. Since 1964, Ricci has been the first place I have always gone for the simple fact of the company having a knowledgeable staff, quick response to needs, welcoming atmosphere and a multitude of materials. Anyone on the Ricci staff can point you in the right direction and I appreciate being greeted on first name basis. Through the years, I’ve been able to rely on Don, Pat, Rae and Anita among others for suggestions, information, recommendations and ideas.”

Ted Smith– Builder

“Over the course of 25 years working with Ricci, I’ve gotten to know a majority of the employees and have developed great working relationships with many of them. Ed is a true gentleman who knows the right people to hire and is dedicated to continue making Ricci a good operation. I enjoy visiting the lumber yard, because I am greeted by first name and know I can speak with the worker as if they are my friends. I don’t even shop around because they have what I need and are good people I can trust.”

Jon Wyckoff– Wyckoff Construction

“I’ve been working with Ricci for 30 years and like my local bank, Ricci has resisted to move out or sellout and somehow they can always match the big box prices. Congratulations Ed and Staff on 50 years!”

Frank Alex– Alex Builders and Sons

“Working with Ricci is a pleasure because I feel they have a personal connection with my company. For the past 10 years, I have been able to rely on them for everything from framing to windows to interior finishes. Their customer service and outside salesman Alan Beasley is terrific. I’ve been able to count on Alan to work with me on estimates, field visits and even meet with my clients. We take pride in being a loyal company and have received that same level of treatment and respect from Ricci.”

David Cooley– David Cooley Construction

“Everyone on the Ricci staff is enthusiastic and pleasurable to work with. Each time I go over to the store there are usually six different employees behind the counter and I never have to wait. It’s nice to know I can depend on Ricci for all of my building needs and if I do have a question, Pat and the staff can usually answer it right away. If not, they’ll make sure to find an answer.”
