“I love that they have this great little old school hardware store in OB. I come to OB a couple of times a year to dog sit for my daughter’s pup (oh yes, and to visit her!) and there is always some little thing she needs, and I usually can find it here. This time I got her this bucket for her tools for her tiny little garden. She loves it. I always find an excuse to stop in, everyone there I have have come across is nice and helpful.”

“Efficient, friendly, and knowledgeable employees. Would recommend to anyone looking for paint or paint related. The only thing they don't seem to carry are stencils, everything else was in stock so quick trips and great prices. A huge plus would be that they offer free parking as well.”

“We have used Dunn-Edwards paint for our past projects and they have been our go-to paint store. We recently went into the Kearny Mesa store select an exterior paint color to match our roof, existing trim, etc. (selecting a single color amongst a universe of colors is our kryptonite). We met with Freya Wilson who was sweet, professional, and most helpful. She helped us with a first round color candidates, which we we took home, and then we returned with to give here our feedback and we honed in on a color that works most excellently. So, two rounds and a color discovered, the process could not have gone more seamlessly. Thank you Freya.”

“I've been coming to this business for several years now. They go another way to help homeowners understand what products to purchase and give you great advice. Just got great service today from Michael, so I decided to finally write a review. It's good to support a local business as opposed to some Big box store in mission valley.”

“I’ve got to give a huge shoutout to the staff at the Sherwin-Williams paint store. I work with Ironwood Finishes, and we do most of our shopping at this location and the nearby Home Depot. At this Sherwin-Williams, the staff is consistently friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile. Whether I’m grabbing supplies for a quick job or planning a full project, they always take the time to answer questions, offer expert recommendations, and make sure I leave with exactly what I need.”

“’ve been here several times, but the young lady I met for the first time on this visit was the kindest and most attentive. She was also very knowledgeable about paint and helped me in many ways. I was thinking about going to a different location, but I came back to this one because it is close to my house. and thankfully, she seems much better than the men who work there. I visited on 5/22/2026 and plan to visit again if she is there.”

“The place to go for epoxy and urethanes! This isn’t a traditional sherwin williams. It’s a marine coating store. So if you want a quart to touch up your walls, you’re at the wrong place. Manny and Gary know everything about the products sold. Very helpful.”
