“Awesome! I was in a pinch looking for hardware that would solve a job with major problems. Not only did Jerry and his team provide excellent in-person service. They were able to locate and provide that hardware in less than a day. I'm a lifelong customer from here on out.”

“We are so pleased with our new gate and fences. We cannot tell you enough how hard-working and professional Marco and Eduardo were. They truly worked as a team, were dedicated, and efficient. They were great about answering any, and all of our questions, and really created a comfortable atmosphere for those conversations. In the future, if we decide to hire a company to replace our back fence, it'll definitely be California Fence Builder. We would also specifically request these two gentlemen to return to do the work. Thank you to all of you for such a great experience, from Andony arriving early to measure, giving us a bid while he was still on our property, to the high quality workmanship on the day of the install. We have already given recommendations to others.”

“Whenever I’m in the general area, I love stopping by TAP Plastics. I was really saddened when the South San Jose location shut down many years ago, and in my opinion, that location was much more convenient for those of us on the south side. I also really wish TAP Plastics had not stopped carrying the plastic flip-lid compartment organizers. They were the only organizers of that type I could find in any store that were made in the USA, and I have never found a comparable replacement. Aside from that, TAP Plastics is absolutely a hands-down great store. The atmosphere is calm, the employees are respectful and helpful, and I always enjoy stopping in whenever I’m nearby.”

“I needed an old Kelly Moore paint matched, and my painter buddies told me this was the spot. I dropped off the can of old paint and within a couple days it was ready. Rob was super helpful when I arrived to pick up. Also cool is that they now have my color on file if I ever need it again. So happy this business is here for us. Bravo South Bay Paints!”

“wow, can't believe so many people came on a Sunday today....the busiest I have seen it (I usually go weekdays, and there is still a crowd). I was so happy to see passionfruit for $12.99! I got a starter passion fruit plant about 1ft tall, just to give my garden another passion fruit. YAY!!! Good price and good height. I cannot find this plant at this price at yamagami's or Summerwinds, so I am glad I went here today.. update July 2026: darn, so sad to see the passionfruit that was 12.99 in early June now 16.99!! what a bummer :(”

“Great place, but taking a star away because the older man that I assume is the owner or manager immediately looked me up and down, stepped into my space and put his arm around me. Im sure in his day this was just how you showed friendliness but lets please be more mindful when interacting guests. In todays day, putting your hands on people you dont know in an overly familiar way is just not appropriate.”

“Amazing store. They had an adapter they had *in stock* for our tractor's hydraulic hose fitting, which we needed that day. The staff found exactly what we needed and recommended better washers than had come with the hose in the first place, which have put a stop to leaks on the other hoses.”

“I went in on a Friday afternoon after looking for an odd and unique buss bar for a vacuum pump that we were exchanging to have rebuilt. I had been to three other electrical supply shops and none of them had or thought they could get that part or something close to make work. So I didn't have high hopes when arriving. It looked like I interrupted lunch (Sorry guys) when I walked in, but the owner jumped right up to greet me and help me out (I didn't realize that he was the owner at that time). I showed them some pictures of what I was working with and asked if they had that buss bar or could get one, or something that I could use. He went off on one of the most in-depth, time consuming, all-encompassing SAR missions I think they might have had. about 30 minutes in, I thought they forgot about me, and I decided to leave. The son came out as I was getting into my truck, and asked if I was still interested in finding that buss bar. I felt stupid and told him that I thought they forgot about me, then he explained that his dad had been searching pretty much every nook and cranny of the warehouse in search of it or one that might work. So fast forward another 15-20 minutes and he emerged from the underworld of the VAST warehouse (no kidding, it's pretty impressive) and he had a buss bar that was similar and asked if it might work. I would have to modify it slightly, but it worked like a champ!! It was supposed to be temporary, but it worked so well, that it is the permanent component in that vacuum pump motor. So, short story long, give them a try FIRST! They are an awesome company and they really do go to great lengths to help their customers. From us here at Vacuum Engineering & Materials (VEM), THANK YOU for helping get this Vacuum Hot Press back up and running that afternoon! I couldn't have done it without your help. I appreciate your far reaching efforts!”

“Holy moly, Kristin Montoya knows her colors! We are beginning a renovation and I was absolutely lost about what color tiles, quartz, backsplash, etc to choose. I came in here and spent an hour with Kristin and walked out with an interior and exterior paint palette that would make even the Property Brothers jealous! Kristin is calm, has an exceptional style sense, and is incredibly helpful. Thanks to her help in establishing a palette, I was able to choose all of my finishes with ease! **Should also mention that Kristin is finishing her interior design degree - her expertise is apparent.**”

“I am a project manager for a distributor in Las Vegas. We do large commercial/industrial projects. Any time we need a breaker, hardware kit, or just about anything job related, these guy's are the BEST. Pricing, accuracy, the right product, fast service. The professional knowledge they have there is second to none. Even when UPS screws something up, they go well out of there way to make it right. They run a tight ship there with no B.S. !! I've worked for corrupt and shady breaker houses in the past and these guy's are the direct opposite. They are my go to guy's. Period.”

“Thank you very much for your help and support! Juan helped me getting the battery for a Stihl lawn mower (great product, btw.) replaced, and I could not be happier with the outcome. There is something to be said for personal advice and after sales support, that you just don't get from That Other Store.”

“Another positive experience. I was looking for natural pest control products and clay pots. I was asked by THREE different employees if I needed help finding anything. Compare that to ZERO employees asking if I needed any help at Home Depot on Capitol Expressway. This is why I will continue to shop at Ace. Great job by the staff at this Ace Harware!”

“With a painting project to accomplish I paid a visit to Benjamin Moore Creative Paint, and had a fantastic experience. The parking was convenient, with plenty of spots right outside the store, which made my visit hassle-free. Ariel and Maurice were incredibly helpful in guiding me through the process of selecting the right rollers and paint products. They listened to my needs and made thoughtful suggestions, ensuring I got exactly what I was looking for. Their expertise and friendly approach made all the difference. The next day, I returned to the store, and Kevin was equally amazing. He took the time to address any additional questions I had and ensured I had everything I needed to complete my project along with processing a return from the day prior. Overall, the staff at Benjamin Moore Creative Paint went above and beyond to help me find the right products and provided excellent customer service. I highly recommend this location for anyone in need of quality paint and knowledgeable assistance! Review for visits from the first week of Jan 2025: This review is a very quick shoutout to Ariel for helping me with the right shades of white (one for my kitchen drawer panels and the other for the bathroom vanity panels). I got them the panel boards (one from each, to match the paint) on Thursday evening and was able to pick them on Saturday morning and the paint came out to be just perfect. She had left detailed steps for the entire process (since i had messed up the drawer panels and needed to get rid of the old paint before setting the new one in) which i definitely appreciated. Kevin as usual being super helpful, guided me with the options for a couple of foam rollers, hand held pails and a few other accessory items that i needed for my project. All in all a fantastic experience and absolutely recommend the store for all your paint needs.”
