History

Hamilton Building Supply was founded by Stanley and George Hutchinson in 1924. The business began by selling masonry products such as cement and lime. As Hamilton Building Supply grew, it expanded into lumber and building materials, and coal. In 1967 Hamilton Building Supply was sold by the Hutchinsons to Jesse Coleman Jr. and his brother, Earl Coleman. A few years after, Earl sold his share to Jesse who brought three of his sons into the business as part owners. Hamilton Building Supply has continued to expand under the leadership of Kim, Kip and Keith Coleman adding pre-hung door manufacturing, a custom millwork shop, a commercial door division and a tool rental department to it's building supply business.  Kim left the business in 2009 and now Kip and Keith continue to build the 89 year old business.
