We always make great finds for remodeling our older home. It is so nice to have someplace we can find those older parts. And their recycled paint is fantastic.

Construction junction is a great place to find used building supplies, cabinets, light fixtures, tile, doors and so much more. If your updating your own home it is a great place to donate your old furnishings. They also have several dumpsters for recycling. They have a dumpsters for glass, paper, plastic and metal.

If you are looking for vintage or period pieces consisting of appliances, bathroom fixtures, toilets, tub, paints, tools, garden supplies, vintage doors, fasteners, and everything in between,, you will find it here! You can also drop off your usable materials here also.I have been going here for several years, although the prices for most items are very reasonable some of them are higher than they need to be. I wish that one ever any of us would go in there to make purchases especially in quantities that we could negotiate a price. I still like the place very much.

Prices have steadily been increasing to the point where it’s hard to find a real good deal on anything anymore.

Visited out of curiosity because I have been following them on social media for a long time. We enjoy the thrill of the hunt. Explored the warehouse, discovering isles and isles of salvaged furniture, appliances, cabinets, doors, windows and much more. Worth the stop if you are currently working on any home improvement projects. You never know what you might discover there.

This place is dangerously addicting! We are working of renovating our home, and have found multiple items for our house here for AMAZING prices. I love that we can take something used, and give it a new life. Will definitely be donating items as we continue to renovate our home so that others can have the opportunity to take some of our “old” and make it “new” to them too!

Decent, earth-friendly staff and quality products, albeit them used. Prices are fair, but the benefit to our planet by recycling and reusing far outweighs any value of currency. Great selection. We need more places like this.

Unique store. Needing that one of kind item, this might be the place for you. For someone needing to stay on a rehab budget, the finds are there, just have to look for it.

If you get excited about fixing up things in your house, this is the place for you. They literally have everything you could ever want and its all original and vintage. They have appliances, windows, tile for flooring, desks, ceiling fans, anything you could think of. Its amazing

In my experience, there are two very common types of construction reclamation stores: the ones that are highly curated and ridiculously expensive and the ones that sell absolutely anything and are extremely affordable.Construction junction is the best combination of those two profiles. Being a thoughtfully curated, but still affordable store, selling beautiful pieces of history at reasonable prices. Tile, doors, furniture - shoot, I bought a pair of mannequin legs there which now function as a side table.And! If youre not interested in furniture, the premises are decorated with elaborate pieces of art made from recycled materials. That alone makes it worth the price of admission (the price of admission is $0 because there is no admission fee).

This is only the second time Ive ever been in this place. Always surprised at how much stuff they actually have here. The prices are incredibly fair if you can find what you are looking for. This time I was looking for a solid slab interior door, did find one that was pretty close to what I needed. Always a good place to look first before having to buy new.

I LOVE Construction Junction. Its the perfect place to buy stuff you didnt know you needed! Just recently bought a HUGE mirror and painted it using the Amazon recycled paint they sell. Mirror and paint together were only $65 and I would have easily paid $150-200 for the same mirror online.

You can take your recycling here, and believe it actually gets recycled. Its a treasure trove of building materials and art projects waiting to happen. Also, when there isnt an epidemic, they host a big beer event/fundraiser called Big Pour. Good times!

Love this place! You have to think a little outside the box when looking for material here but it is well worth your time. We picked up two solid wood doors to use on a barn door track. After some paint stripping and glass reset they came out even better than I could have hoped!

Love this place. If you own an older home, this place is a godsend. Things you cant find anywhere else you can often find here! Old fixtures, old tiles, old doorknobs, sometimes even old pieces of furniture. If something from your vintage house has broken, this is one of the first places to search in the Pittsburgh area.

Check here for appliances and materials before a store. Construction junction has kitchens with 20 pieces, chandeliers, faucets, restored wood.... Just go!!!! The only wood they accept is solid wood not pressed board so youll get quality and pay less than Ikea/target

They have EVERYTHING you can possibly need. It was like thrifting on crack. Plenty of parking and anything you may need for a home you can find if your creative or handy enough to fix. They had a huge amount of furniture of tables, desks, chairs, and doors. I will come back to see what else is new :)

Review №58

Very helpful and friendly, and took my donated items without questions. The person who waited on me was very helpful. The only thing that needs improvement is in making sure nails, screws, and other sharp items are picked up off the ground; in order to prevent flat tires. Increasing the number of times per day that the ground is swept for these items would help. Thanks.

This was the first time I had been to this place and it is quite incredible! The things you can find here are super cool. You can get smaller pieces of furniture but also larger pieces to help remodel a home or make something of your own!! Plus you can donate things to them as well! One of the coolest places in Pittsburgh!

This place used to be a great place to find a good bargain, but now everything is pretty pricey. You are better off shopping on Facebook marketplace if you looking for second hand items for your home.

Some of the staff, namely a few men, are rude and lack any sort of consideration. When asking questions, he was impatient. When loading my car, he just stood there and watched, not offering to help. It may not have been his job to help, but where are the days of being a gentleman?Also CJ is overpriced in many of its products- you can have better luck on craigslist and facebook marketplace.

Such a fun place. Full of all kinds of used bits and pieces you might need to repair or replace something in your older home. I found a replacement lid for a 1960s toilet that exactly matched the weird beige original. Check it out just for fun.

Construction Junction is a great spot to check out if you are renovating anything.... From obsolete door hardware, to amazing cabinetry, tile, and rare hardware of all varieties. The polar opposite of the Big Box Hardware experience - make sure visit frequently to see their new acquisitions. And, dont forget to check out the Industrial Arts Co-op Space Monkey in the Paint n Varnish Isle.

Construction Junction serves its purpose. While it’s usually fun to come visit here and find fun, unique stuff, I’m finding it is becoming filled more and more with builder grade stuff over the craftsman pieces I used to find. I’ll definitely keep coming back but I’m hoping they get more in soon!

I discovered Constuction Junction through my best friend. We walk there from her place, as its just down the road. They specialize in what they call Creative Reusing. Everything they sell is used and has been donated by previous owners. In one building, you can find every type of furniture imaginable. Outside this building, there are huge varieties of building materials and tires. And, in an adjacent building, you can find books, arts & crafts supplies, electronics/parts, office/school supplies, candles, CDs, DVDs/videos, household items, odds & ends, and so many other things. It is the most amazing place!!! If you cant find what your looking for anywhere else, Im certain that youll be able to find it here! And, all at a reduced cost to retail, too!
