Our History

About Us

Established in 1949, Weirton Lumber has earned the reputation of being the area's #1 lumber store.

​

The business was started by three men; Robert C. Smith, H.W. Hair, and Harry Trushel. It was Smith who, years later, gave current owner Mance Frankovitch a job. Mance, while still in college, began working in 1971. After college he was offered a full-time job and stayed on. Together, Smith and Frankovitch formed a partnership and bought out the others. They stayed together until 1987 when Smith passed away.

​

Today, Weirton lumber continues to grow and serve customers throughout the tri-state area. We cater to contractors, do it yourself, hobbyist, commercial and industrial customers.

​

Our longevity is directly related to our professional sales staff. At Weirton Lumber we are truly happy to assist you with all your building and remodeling needs. Being a member of LMC,  the largest independent lumber/building materials buying group in America,  affords us the ability to source high-quality products at competitive prices.
