“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.”
“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.”

“Craig and Nondas are super nice and helpful! They helped me with the paint selection for my floor and order over the phone. Nice selections of paints! Thank you!”

“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!”
“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”
“I wasn’t expecting to have warm affinity towards a paint store but this place is great and the staff are super nice! They have a large stock, love to give suggestions on projects, are hyper responsive via email, and mix orders super fast.”
“OMG, you were able to replicate a color that I really love and I have gotten such good feedback about it but most importantly, the two times I have interacted with the daily city Sherwin-Williams store. I have had such a stellar experience. They are so helpful I didn’t get the persons name the first time I went to the store, but Eduardo the second time was, so helpful, so amazing. I will continue to use your store and tell others about it there’s no doubt.”
“They have everything you might need for property/ apartment repairs.
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.”
“Great store with friendly, helpful service. We needed Penofin stain and sealer for our ipe handrail and they had a great selection of everything from paints to brushes and tools, etc. Highly recommend House of Color for your painting or repair needs!”
“Mike was a pleasure to work with! We hired them after discovering that our previous drywall contractor would be unable to complete the job by the end of the summer. Due to water damage, we needed to re-drywall a garage. That is, the ceiling + insulation. Very professional and prompt service. I'd use it again.”
“Visited the Daly City location this Saturday and the two team members were super helpful. It’s good to know that Home Depot and Lowe’s hasn’t destroyed these small companies that still have knowledgeable team members.”
“Friendliest paint store on the Peninsula!! Been coming here for years! In addition to providing beautiful, quality paint, they also help you recycle old paint too!!!”
“I go to the 750 Bryant store regularly and the staff is incredible! Monty and the others have full knowledge of the products & applications. They are quick to wait on you & I’m never left waiting, important to busy contractors. I give it 10 ⭐️!”
“I was so happy to visit this Benjamin Moore store. I was greeted by their friendly staff and Adela helped me out diligently. She listened to my needs, picked out all the colors I was looking for and more, and gave really great suggestions on how to proceed. It's my first time shopping for paint and she made me feel really good about the process. This store is a bit of a drive but I will be sure to come back because of her expertise, guidance and kindness.”
“For many many years Ryan has helped me pick colors, paints and every thing I need as a Home Staging Business Owner. He has been extreamly professional, personable and I have complete confidence in his color choices. He is a hard working multi tasking and cares about his clients. I want to thank you for years of excellence from Ryan at House of Color in San Bruno! Sincerely, Yvette Thoma Previous owner of Let's Stage it!”

“Great store. Helpful folks who know what they are talking about. And great quality paints at a reasonable price. I am through with the big box store for paint. This is the place professionals go. Got some deck paint there recently---spectacular outcome when I did the prep they recommended.”
“My husband and I visited on multiple occasions and have always been greeted with the most friendly and helpful staff. We learned about the different paint finishes and what accessories would be required for our diverse projects. While all the staff are great, we especially loved working with Emilio. He is always quick to help and makes us feel very welcomed. The staff also does their best to give you the best deal so if you want to save, this would be the best place to go.”
“I live in the neighborhood and love this store! Recently, I had an issue with my scooter. It was missing a vital part for carrying it. Gabe willingly helped me with the issue and came up with a quick and easy solution: a carabiner. Thank you so much, Gabe!”
“I had an outstanding experience with Color Atelier! Their customer service was fantastic—responsive and helpful throughout the process. The quality of their products is top-notch; the Limewash in my living room looks stunning, and the Tadelakt plaster in my primary bath is both beautiful and durable. I highly recommend Color Atelier for their exceptional service and quality—five stars!”
“Great staff and one can always find parking. They will help you recycle old paint. They also help bring your paint to your vehicle. Highly recommend this specific location.”
“I'm very impressed with the quality of service and skill of the staff at this Belmont Paint store. I've been buying at this store for years and recently they color matched new bathroom paint to the tile perfectly. Always a pleasure to visit the store in Belmont.”
“Service was fantastic -- I walked in knowing very little about what products I needed to paint a room and stain my backyard fence and walked out really feeling like I knew how to approach the projects. Francisco was really wonderful. And they carried everything to my car.”

“I needed some help understanding the undertones of my exterior paint options for an investment property. The sales person named Andrew was the best help to get what I needed, including samples to test on the house.”
“Our HOA used Kelly-Moore paints for 40 years. However, as they have closed their doors, it was time to select a new paint brand for our homeowners. Many of our owners have experience with Sherwin-Williams, so it made sense to check out SW products. The store manager, Victor Quintero, noticed me trying to match paint chips to some paint swatches and he asked if he could help. Victor took the samples and used a color calibrator to quickly match seven different colors. He then explained the different finishes and grades of paint available before opening an account for our HOA which will enable our owners to buy paint at a discount. All this sounds very professional... because it is. Victor was friendly, patient, and truly committed to meeting our HOA's needs. I drove home and compared the SW paint chips to the seven different paint colors on homes in our neighborhood. No surprise... they all matched. I can easily recommend Victor in SW's Belmont store for assistance with painting projects. He is very, very helpful.”
“When our contractor recommended picking up some items for our remodel from Chu Supplies, I initially was dubious - both of the quality of the items the store would have available and the customer service. But I was very happy to be proven wrong on both issues! First, let me help set your expectations. This isn't a big box store like Home Depot where you have easy access to resources (e.g., online guides or in-person staff) to help guide and/or make informed decisions about what to buy. If you have no idea what you need to buy, it probably will be less frustrating for everyone involved if you did some research on your own (or in consultation with your contractor) before going to the store. Having said that, Wallace and Kent at the front counters are great and super helpful! Yes, it helps if you speak Cantonese, but their English (especially Wallace's) is very good. Together, they are the perfect odd "couple" - Wallace has a more easy-going, patient vibe, while Kent is super efficient and straight-to-the-point. As far as I can tell, they carry - or at least, can order - many of the items that you can buy from a big box store for a cheaper price point. From cheaper, generic, hollow core doors to VELUX skylights to high end tankless water heaters, etc. Just keep in mind that each of their locations specialize/carry different categories of products. There may be cheaper options out there, but the combination of location, price, and return policy makes Chu Supplies an excellent choice in my book!”
“This place is a GEM! They had everything I needed and everyone I interacted with, including the owner, was so helpful!
I’ve been looking for a store near me that sold Mohawk touch up products and am so glad I finally discovered this place. They had everything I was looking for and had ALL the colors.
I bought several Blendal sticks, graining markers, a Pro-mark marker, and a quick fill burn in stick. Best of all, I was able to walk in and out with everything in less than 15 minutes.
Seriously, I’ve spent hours over several weeks searching and debating where to but these from. I couldn’t find a single website that sold all of these products and had the colors I was looking for (basically all variations of mahogany). Not only are the prices here comparable to what I found online, I saved so much money not needing to pay for shipping.
I almost resorted to Amazon out of desperation but House of Color SSF came through cheaper and so much faster!! THANK YOU!!”
