Build.com Coupon Codes and Deals 2024

It's been a long and prosperous road for owner Christian Freidland who started the company in 2000 with his FaucetDirect.com site, which was a class project funded by his buddy David Boctor. They broke the mold with the first online service for plumbing products.  Three years later was launched Handlesets.com and in 2004 LightingDirect.com was launched.  2005 saw ImprovementDirect.com that provided all the products of the various niche sites they had created.  It wasn't until 2010 that the site Build.com was created and became the second largest retailer for home improvement products online.

Today the company employs around 400 people for the website and its supply chain. Freidland still serves as President.
