When it comes to sourcing roofing and construction materials, many contractors automatically think of big box stores. While those national chains offer convenience, they often lack the personal touch, specialized products, and tailored support that professional contractors truly need. That’s where CGR Wholesale's Contractor Corner stands out.
For roofers and builders in West Mifflin, Rostraver, Baldwin, and Pleasant Hills, PA, Contractor Corner provides a smarter alternative, one built around reliability, local expertise, and professional-level service that big chains simply can’t match.
Let’s take a closer look at why more contractors are choosing Contractor Corner over the big-name retailers.

Local Service with Real Relationships
Unlike large national stores, Contractor Corner is focused on serving the needs of local contractors and small business owners. When you work with us, you’re not just another transaction; you’re a valued partner.
Our team knows your projects, understands the challenges of working in Western Pennsylvania’s unpredictable weather, and makes sure you have what you need, when you need it. Whether you’re picking up materials early in the morning or calling for a quick quote, you’ll always talk to someone who knows the products and your business.
This personal approach builds stronger relationships, faster service, and better support, something big chains rarely offer.
Stocked with Professional-Grade Materials
At CGR Wholesale Contractor Corner, we focus on carrying the brands and materials that roofing and siding professionals rely on most. Our inventory includes:
Owens Corning shingles for durability and curb appeal
Mastic Trim Coil in a wide range of colors and finishes
Plywood and sheathing for strong, stable roof decking
AJC Tools made specifically for roofing efficiency and safety
Unlike retail stores that cater to homeowners and DIYers, we stock professional-grade products designed for long-term performance. Every item is chosen with contractors in mind, meaning better quality, longer lifespan, and easier installation.
Faster Access to Materials
In construction, delays can cost time and money. That’s why we make speed and efficiency a top priority. With local stock on hand, contractors can get materials right when they need them instead of waiting for national supply shipments or backorders from corporate warehouses.
We also offer bulk order services and flexible pickup options to fit your project schedule. Many of our clients rely on us to keep their materials ready for fast turnaround, something that’s hard to get from a big chain.
Competitive Pricing Without the Red Tape
One of the biggest misconceptions is that big box stores always have the lowest prices. In reality, Contractor Corner’s contractor-exclusive pricing often beats retail rates.
Through our bulk discounts, loyalty pricing, and manufacturer partnerships, we’re able to pass real savings on to local contractors. Because we work directly with suppliers, we avoid unnecessary markups and can offer transparent, competitive pricing without corporate bureaucracy.
Plus, we make it easy to get custom quotes, no waiting on approval or navigating multiple departments. Just a quick call to our team, and you’ll have accurate pricing in minutes.
Knowledgeable, Contractor-Focused Support
Our team doesn’t just sell roofing materials; we understand them. Whether you’re comparing Owens Corning shingle lines, matching Mastic Trim Coil colors, or choosing the right plywood thickness, we can give detailed, practical advice that saves time and prevents costly mistakes.
Big box stores may have general sales associates, but at Contractor Corner, you’ll always speak with someone who knows roofing inside and out. This kind of expertise helps contractors make better decisions and work more efficiently.
Supporting the Local Construction Community
When you choose CGR Wholesale's Contractor Corner, you’re supporting a locally owned business that invests in the Western Pennsylvania construction community. We work closely with area contractors, roofers, and remodelers to ensure they have the products, pricing, and support needed to keep their businesses thriving.
Your success is our success, and that’s the foundation of how we operate.
