Gilbert & Cole Building Products, Inc.
About
Gilbert & Cole Building Products is a lumber yard and building supply dealer serving Marblehead and the North Shore. It stocks premium kiln-dried spruce, clear cedar, poplar and composite decking, along with a full line of hardware. The yard carries products from suppliers including Andersen, Silverline, ThermaTru, Versatex, Azek and Emtek, and it presents itself as a single source for the materials a building project needs.
The business dates to 1849, when it opened on Marblehead Harbor. In 1870 it moved beside the railroad tracks on Bessom Street, and for decades coal, lumber and building materials arrived by rail, until 1959. It has remained on Bessom Street ever since, shifting from the coal and lumber trade of its early years to its current role as a supplier of lumber, building materials and hardware for the North Shore.
