“A very friendly guy with a great beard took me around personally to find all my items (and discuss them) despite my family and I arriving 10 minutes from closing time. Amazing service. I have deleted all other hardware stores from my mind.”
“I've come to this store multiple times and I always had a great experience. It's even better if you need help finding the right tools or materials for a project because you'll always find someone ready to help.”
“Customer service is #1! Finally moving out of the city and somehow attaining a backyard, my hunt for a new grill led me to Jackson’s as they are one of the few distributors of the brand I was interested in. From the moment I spoke to an associate on the phone, I knew I was working with qualified and passionate people. Chris was super knowledgeable and validated (as well as expanded) much of the prior research I had done online. Not pushy, yet professional and (again) passionate. My timing was fortunate as it lined up closely with their big annual sale. Since it was shaping up to be a larger purchase, they scheduled an early sale private shopping session for me before the official sale started. Chris made the extra effort to be there during my shopping session and continued to be a huge help. I look forward to having Jackson’s as my go-to hardware store. If you value customer service, you should make them yours as well.”
“I really appreciate the service discount builders provides when I come through the front door I go there most of the time due to them having everything I need for work and Myra Cameo a customer service rep is always helpful and always supportive when helping out customers such as myself and always proud to see me there Shout out to myra!”
“Great place to pick up Benjamin Moore paints. I order online and pick it up to avoid wait times (which aren’t that long but I always end up leaving with things I didn’t intend on buying ?). Great customer service and they do occasional sales! Grateful this is my neighborhood hardware store.”
“Watch Repair - Battery Replacement - Cliffs Variety thanks!!Trying to find a watch repair shop in the city is hard. I needed my fossil watch’s battery replaced and it needed a special tool to crack her open without scratching the watch. I go to cliffs and the nicest guy takes my watch and 5 minutes later the battery is replaced and she’s ticking! If you need a new watch battery go to cliffs! It was $5! Talk about service affordability. Thank you cliffs associate!”
“I was missing a part for one of my roller blade wheels, and the employees here were very friendly and helped me find a washer that would do the job in a pinch. Super nice neighborhood small business—will definitely visit again. :-)”

Tony Longmire has been delivering liquid nitrogen and carbon dioxide tanks to us for over a decade and he is the best! Airgas San Rafael has help our company succeed.”
“They did a good job but it isn't the friendliest of shops. I think this shop is able to make almost any key and for that it makes it worth the trip. When I called around they were about the same price as any other locksmith. The best think about this business is that they have an actual store that you can go to. I would recommend it.”

“Honest, smart, upfront people. They helped me talk through an idea I had and actually advised me to not go ahead with the plan, even though they would lose a sale. They focused on my needs first. Thank you!”
“Needed some applewood pellets for my smoker. I called, they told me they stored the pellets away for the season but happy to check to see if they had the applewood. They did and brought up a bag from storage and had it at the counter for me when I came to pick it up. Needed it because I'm making homemade bacon”
“Great place to make keys etc in the neighborhood. Very helpful and friendly owner always there to lend a hand. Reasonable priced items, convenient and full of helpful items without going to Loews. I will continue to shop here”
“No supplier is nicer to me. I've been doing this for a long time. On top of that they are very knowledgeable, have most things on stock or they will get it for you at competitive or lower price.”
“One of the nicest places in the city! They moved ailes in a different direction, and there are a lot more supplies and items to buy. It is also a great store to get greeting cards and toys and cleaners. Great for families!”
“I love this place! Ok, I love hardware stores. It's got just about everything you'll need (no it's NOT home despot, which has its place in the annuals of hardware stores.) They have a lovely garden section with great help, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable (Ask for Peter.) They always have great seasonal selections as well as vegetable starter plants. Plus they always have good holiday decorations and inspiration. Their crew is a bit eccentric, which I think is a plus!”
“I went in with a request for a strange screw for my car door, and they spent a lot of time with me individually... only to realize I didn't need it at all. All this for a $.47 piece of hardware. They really went above and beyond.”

“I went in looking for a simple, but sturdy plastic board to support the end of a cage that was an inch longer than the end of the counter. Sam made sure I chose the right kind of plastic (I didn't know there was even a difference) to survive what this board would be exposed to (bleach, cleansers). Well, the board is perfect and thank you, Sam, for suggesting one corner be rounded. I could not think of anything I would have done differently. It's perfect.”

“There's a SOLID reason why this place has 5 stars, & I'm happy to add one more! Today, Richard at the front was incredibly attentive and helpful. He went way above and beyond! After going to 3 other stores to try and find what I needed, each of which had terrible customer service where the employees didn't give a $hit, I was stoked to find that this place had someone who actually cared. In fact, it took more than a couple tries to find exactly what I needed, & Richard was more than willing to help. To the owners: thanks for being here, having such a huge inventory, & for hiring people who treat your customers with respect! I will definitely be back!! To my fellow Yelp'ers: THIS should be your first stop. Forget big box names & go here. You'll not only be supporting a local business, you'll save yourself some stress!!! *They have a $15 minimum - so keep that in mind.”
“Best customer service, helped me find what I needed to avoid having to buy a whole new replacement. Couldn’t recommend more. Plus layout is very nice and clean. Thank you!!!”
“It was hella easy.
To find .
After getting lost.
And chased a mile by wild dogs.
Maybethe Burger King wrappers stuck to my shoe was overkill but I was trying y hardest to keep it chill.”

I have come here to find pieces of lumber. They are great at cutting lumber to the requested measurements.
The workers are always polite and helpful when it comes to pointing you in the right direction. There is commercial parking right in the front for easy loading. They also have a warehouse right across the street which contains more lumber.
Great location and a helpful place to go to if you are in the city.”

The staff was extremely friendly, they helped me find what I needed and gave me good product recommendations.”
