From foundation to finish, we stock the lumber, concrete, roofing, and
structural supplies that Chicago builders trust — at prices that respect
your bottom line.
We're not a warehouse with a parking lot. We're a supply house
with knowledgeable staff who know the difference between a
pressure-treated 2×4 and a structural-grade beam.

Since 1962
Our Story
Built on the South Side for the South Side
Hyde Park Building & Material Supplies opened its doors on
Cottage Grove Avenue in 1962 — the same year the L-shaped
El was extended to 53rd. We've watched this neighborhood
build, rebuild, and rebuild again.
When a contractor pulls into our lot at 6:30 a.m., they're
not looking for a big-box experience. They're looking for
someone who knows their order, has their materials staged,
and will tell them when they've over-ordered. That's the
relationship we've maintained for over six decades.
We serve both licensed contractors and homeowners who want
to get it right the first time. If you need a cut list, a
material estimate, or just someone to explain why your
basement floor is cracking, stop by. We'll walk you
through it.
Quality over quantityWe carry brands we'd use on our own projects.
Same-day availabilityMost items ship or pick up the same business day.
Local expertiseStaff who understand Chicago codes and climate.
How We Help
More than a supply house
We cut, deliver, and advise — so your crew stays on schedule
and your materials arrive right.
Custom Cutting
Need lumber cut to specific dimensions? We'll cut plywood,
dimensional lumber, and board stock to your specs — free
with purchase. Bring your plans or describe what you need.
Local Delivery
We deliver throughout the South Side and greater Chicago
area. Heavy materials like concrete and lumber go straight
to your job site — no middleman, no extra handling.
Material Estimates
Send us your plans or describe your project. We'll prepare
a detailed material list with current pricing — no obligation,
no pressure. Just honest numbers so you can budget with confidence.
Contractor Accounts
Established contractors can set up net-30 accounts with
volume pricing. Consistent supply, priority ordering, and
a dedicated contact who knows your projects by name.
Expert Guidance
Not sure which type of concrete mix to use for a retaining
wall? Don't know if your deck boards need sealant before
or after installation? Ask us. We've been doing this long
enough to have seen every mistake — so you don't have to.
Special Orders
Can't find what you need in stock? We'll order it from our
network of distributors. Most special-order items arrive
within 3–5 business days. We'll call you when it's ready.
When you've been on Cottage Grove as long as we have, you learn
that the businesses that survive are the ones that show up —
every day, for every customer, whether they're buying a single
box of screws or a truckload of block. That's still how we
operate.
