The YBC Family of Companies - Your Building Centers

Same Great Service You Expect

YBC’s family of companies offer the same level of professional service you get from Your Building Centers.

YBC’s mission is and has always been to serve professional contractors and serious do-it-yourselfers with all of their building material needs extends through to our family of companies.

When a new business is acquired by YBC, it aligns itself with YBC’s corporate structure of 100% employee ownership. Since the staff at these businesses become employee owners, each employee now has a personal stake in the company’s success. While owned by Your Building Centers, R.G. Miller, Klinger Lumber, Berlin Lumber, and Allensville Planing Mill continue to operate under their originally founded names. Each of these businesses have been operating in their respective communities for over half a century, and their name recognition is strong with the local people they serve. Recognizing this, YBC chooses to keep their history alive while helping to expand their product base through our established channels. Now under the YBC umbrella, these businesses have access to even more quality name brand products and can offer their local customers more options than ever before.

R.G. Miller

Robert G. Miller opened his business in 1954, working from a home office, to provide aluminum products and installation to the Hanover area. He named the business Miller Aluminum. Many changes occurred between then and 1976 and in that year, Miller Aluminum was renamed Robert G. Miller Inc. The next number of decades saw growth and expansion of the company.

In 2015, Robert G. Miller became a part of Your Building Centers and joined the family of YBC store locations that are across Central and Western Pennsylvania. This step allowed an increase in services and products, while maintaining the high-quality service the Hanover area has come to expect.

He started the business in the back alley behind his residence on East Broad Street in Elizabethville, Pa. Over the years the business grew and was eventually relocated in 1962 to its current location at 3903 Route 225 in Elizabethville.

In 2017, Klinger Lumber was acquired by Your Building Centers. Since then, Klinger has been able to expand their offerings of quality building materials and services. Being a part of the YBC family now brings extra perks to Klinger’s customer base. With Klinger being on the same sale system as YBC, a customer who is shopping outside of the Elizabethville area can now go to any other YBC store and get the same level of service and product options that they would at Klinger. Also, Klinger Lumber contractors now enjoy all the other benefits given to YBC contractors such as free product and code trainings and the YOURewards program.
