About Building Materials

From quick fixes to full renovations, the Building Materials collection at Art Noise brings together the essentials that keep projects moving: silicone and sealants for clean, watertight edges, and dependable adhesives and tapes for bonding and masking. You’ll also find practical finishing touches like door knobs and small hardware that make a space feel updated without a major overhaul. Built for contractors, renovators, and tradespeople who need reliable basics on the jobsite, it’s just as useful for handy homeowners and art hangers tackling weekend repairs, installs, and touch-ups. Pair these materials with the right fasteners and anchors, then round out your kit with measuring and hand tools for accurate, clean results. Based in downtown Kingston, Ontario, Art Noise is an independent Canadian shop—grab what you need locally or order online for Canada-wide shipping.
