Is Master Electrician Dad right about Home Depot Vs. Supply Houses in 2025? No more Price Breaks

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

When asked if tradesmen should still go to supply houses, the contractor responds that it depends on the material. For specialized items like industrial three-phase electrical components, supply houses remain necessary as big-box stores don't carry them. However, for common, 'vanilla ice cream' day-to-day items, there's no longer any incentive to choose a supply house.

Goal: Differentiate when a supply house is still necessary versus when it's not.

Sometimes my supply shop
