By Simpson Strong-Tie Staff

Simpson Strong-Tie was built on the idea of making strong connections. That concept extends beyond our structural innovations for raising or supporting strong, resilient buildings and communities. We use social media and our two company blogs to have conversations, not only about our products and services, but also about the values and mission of our company. Here are several of the ways you can tell us about your experiences with Simpson Strong-Tie, learn more about our company, or ask us questions.

Simpson Strong-Tie Social Media

Facebook: facebook.com/strongtie

Facebook is where we have conversations with everyone from DIYers and individuals working on home improvements to trade professionals. By following us on Facebook, you’ll be the first to learn about new products, see our work in the community, and stay on top of industry trends. Of course, Facebook is a natural means of expression for our commitment to customer service. If you have a question about one of our products, whether it’s where to find it or how to use it, drop us a line through Facebook messenger and our social team will connect you with the right answer.

Instagram: instagram.com/strongtie

Instagram is one of our favorite places to hang out and share photos of Simpson Strong-Tie innovations in the field or in your backyard. Did you recently use our Outdoor Accents line of decorative hardware to build a backyard pergola? Share it with us, and we might show it off on our account. Are you proud of a well-framed roof using Simpson Strong-Tie joist hangers? Some of our favorite images come from jobsites.
