Concrete and Footing Materials
Footings must extend at least 32 inches below grade in this area. The building materials section stocks bagged concrete (60 lb and 80 lb), fast-setting concrete, tube forms (8, 10, 12-inch), rebar, and drainage gravel.
A typical 12×16 deck with six footings needs 20 to 25 bags of 80-lb concrete — close to a ton of material. Delivery is available.

Tips for Buying Deck Materials at This Location
- Note the Sunday closure — This store is closed on Sundays. Shop Saturday or plan a weekday run.
- Hand-select your lumber — Sight down each board for straightness. Skip boards with crown, twist, or heavy moisture.
- Check composite samples in natural light — Step outside with a sample — store lighting doesn’t match outdoor sun.
- Call ahead for large orders — The Pro Desk confirms stock and pulls orders before you arrive.
- Compare pricing — Home Depot Beechmont and Menards Loveland are both within 15 minutes. Lowe’s offers a price match guarantee.
- Don’t buy before your permit is approved — Design changes during plan review could mean returns. Buy after your permit is in hand.
