“Good selection. Competitive pricing. The sales staff are exceptionally friendly and do what they can for you. Don't go in there often but when I do it's always a great service.”
“When we hired Starline 16 yrs ago, I don’t think online reviews existed, otherwise I would’ve given this one. Because of budget restraints(being thrifty) we decided on the Vinyl wrap doors and drawer fronts. Antique white Satin, cottage 800 style. 16 years later I still get compliments on my kitchen, I’ve even been asked if it is new. We’ve taken very good care of them and gently clean them often as they are easy to clean and the color has held up very well, including the interiors and hardware. The install went smoothly and was done very well also. For many years I did residential house cleaning and I’ve seen several other vinyl wrap doors and drawers and none compare to the quality of my Starline kitchen, even on newer kitchens than mine. I went into Starline last week to discuss plans to move some of the cabinets because of an upcoming renovation. I was so pleased by the help I received and that they still had my file and that it was never too late to send in a review. But most of all I’m so glad that they are still using the same suppliers and quality materials because I know the cabinets for my renovation will last and look good for many years. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this style of cabinet and this company.”
“I come here to get 12% chlorine, which I can't find anywhere else. It's a small store but packed full of all kinds of cleaning supplies that you might need. The staff is friendly and helpful too.”
“We use Big Red for our annual fire suppression tests that are required by the city, they have done this for my company for about 3-4 years now and always are so pleasant to have on site. Sheldon is an absolute gem and goes above and beyond in his work. We always look forward to seeing him. He is so kind, explains everything well and is thorough. He is a joy to work with. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.”
“Would like to thank Bob and the other 2 staff members whom I did not see their names. Went in at 651 pm Friday evening and didn't realize they were closing at 7 pm. Bob went the actual distance to make sure the screws I was getting would fit for the purpose I needed them. I had the wrong ones and thanks to Bob they fit. Was out of there at 703 pm. Rich”
“We’ve visited this Home Depot many times and have always had very positive experiences. The staff are consistently friendly, helpful, and approachable. On almost every visit, at least a couple of employees will ask if we need help finding anything. It’s great to see a team that genuinely seems to care about providing good customer service!”
