“If you need any help, the whole team is ready and waiting to answer your questions. Had a great experience today with Denise, Morgan, Garth, and Trev. Highly recommended.”
“I wanted to say how wonderful the family is at Ace Hardware here in Lake Pan. I had purchased a gallon of paint from Wal-mart and it appeared to have been sitting for quite some time and needed to be mixed. I stirred until my arm was tired and couldn't get it. I needed to go back to Walmart. If you are like me, the thought nauseated me. I decided I would stop by Ace, just in case. They were so nice and helpful. They even carried it out for me after mixing it. Awesome small town business.”
“I found this store to be extremely helpful even though I was not buying anything. I had a stuck drill bit that the staff helped me fix. So many helpful and knowledgeable people. They will get my business in the future.”
“ACE is the Place! That always greet you at the door and ask if they can be of any assistance. This helps me get what I need and be on my way quickly. They always have what I need compared to the big box stores with shelves low on stock or empty shelves. Quality products with full shelves and bright and clean store. Employees are very knowledgeable in their inventory and where it is loaded. I highly recommend Ace! My store is in Belleview Florida”
“The staff is very helpful + knowledgeable. It has the feel of a family owned business and not a big box store!! Give them a try…… you won’t be disappointed!!”
“I’ve had a few positive experiences with Pat’s Sales out of Leesburg. I’ve bought an exterior door, windows, flooring and cabinets through them for a workshop on AG land that I wanted to not look like a workshop lol. My first couple of purchases were the door and windows. All were made well and installed easily, no problems. The second was flooring. Not only was I given a great deal by Todd Clifford, the owner, but he also delivered to me in Umatilla personally for free! What a deal - and then hand carried the 1,000 square feet inside himself. Talk about service!! The last experience was the purchase of cabinets. I went to their professional cabinet person, Cheryl Bloom, who patiently walked me through the measuring process and guided me on the ins and outs of the huge decision of a cabinet purchase and layout. Needless to say I had to remeasure 2-3 times and she did the layout on her computer with a screen above her that faced me so I could see what she could see. I didn’t get but one other private company quote that came in about $2,000 more with install. Pat’s does not have their own installers but gives you a list of approved installers you can pick from or choose your own. I chose Randy Garrett from their list and WOW - what a craftsman he is at a very reasonable price. He even picked up and delivered the cabinets to me for an extra very reasonable price. There was one cabinet that came in the correct box but was an incorrect size, which Pat’s reordered and it came in within the week and Randy Garrett picked up and brought to me to finish the job. Everything came out perfect. My son has begun the flooring and it is beautiful as well. I HIGHLY recommend this company and their services for a quality, professional and personable experience that beats the prices of the big box stores as well! I’m writing this in the night and will add photos another time after countertops are done and flooring completely in. Choose PAT’S SALES - they’re not just for mobile homes!”
“had to return some items we purchased for a home project that we couldn't use ...still in original package.. Gentleman at register that day was very pleasant and professional and issued refund without any issues!! thank you!!”
“I am always happy when I go to the Ace in Fruitland Park and see the parking lot full! I want them to stay in business!! The staff is so helpful and friendly and I have such a truly delightful experience every time. They recently started doing soda stream exchange and I can say it is far and away the EASIEST exchange I have ever done. Great work as always Ace!”
“Good hardware store excellent employees always help you out when you can't find something. Not crazy about them closing so early during the week and not being open on Sunday when I find on doing my home repair and need replacement parts for whatever I'm working on it forces me to go to home Depot where it's hard to get any help when you can't find something. Most employees are only no one section IE: plumbing electrical lumber ECT. That's if you can locate one, without going to customer service and asking for help. They use the intercom to ask for an employee to go to the section where I need help. Sometimes they show up sometimes it don't. It's usually at least a 3-minute wait. More wasted time. That does not happen in your store, they find you and ask if you need help, that's the way it should be, that's how it used to be, in the olden days 20 or 30 years ago. By”
“Suzy C was fantastic with a smile an greeted all... Other workers took time to see if you had clothes pins!! Thank you. Enjoy coming in an seeing all you have...,”
“Toomey tools is awesome!! Excellent customer service each time we've dropped in . Helpful sweet woman , (sorry bad with names ? She gave us informed knowledge on the cleaning products and a few other things as well. Every isle is different and little goody things you find in between. Definitely worth stopping in.”
“The people there we super friendly and helpful. It was a drive for me over an hour but well worth the trip. The deals they offer are the best around. I am glad to support a family owned small business.”
“I just love Tractor Supply. I go there and get what I need and leave with things I wanted but didn't need. we all know how that is. that's why it's one of my favorite stores”
“It has been great working with Juan at JAL Innovations. His work was excellent, he was prompt and left my home as clean as he found. It was great to work with a contractor who was on time and did exactly what he promised”
“This branch is ten miles further away than our local Tractor Supply, and I like them about the same in general, but kudos to this branch for a couple of reasons. They stocked an item I needed that our branch doesn't seem to, and whenI put an order in online late in the day I got the email saying it was ready to be picked up early the next morning. The employees are very friendly and helpful as well. I expect to be back there,”
“This place has got everything use if it belongs on the trailer or anything else they have it if they don't have it nobody else will they have great prices and good service”
“Disappointed that they took military discount away on major appliances. Like the wide selection of items and employees are very helpful. Was at Lowe's today for potting soil and plants. Hey have a large variety of all "stuff". They're always so helpful. I do enjoy shopping there.”
“I had a problem with a return that i was to;d to bring to the store , it was refused . ONLY the tenacity of a wonderful lady ( ESTHER ) did it get resolved , WONDERFUL PERSON wouldnt take no till she got a company supervisor to fix it .”
“Was in the Pro lumber dept and didn't have to wait. An employee immediately approached us asking us how he could help and found what we needed. Corey and Christian quickly got the pallet down from stock. And gladly cut the wood for us. Thank you for your prompt attention and professional, friendly service! Best Home Depot in the Orlando area!”
“A HUGH shoutout to Calvin at your Lady Lake FL store about 130pm Saturday 4/4/2026! He provides extraordinary customer service, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, caring, professional and makes things happen for your customers! He is an asset to your company and deserves special recognition and a bonus!! While we were waiting in the patio furniture area, Calvin asked if we needed any help. He patiently listened, said I’ll be right back. And he walked back to say I’ll go get it for you. He did just that and helped us load it into our truck. BIG thanks to Calvin’s initiative and action. Cannot express our gratitude for his kindness and help. Please give Calvin recognition for outstanding customer service which is rare these days.”
Lowe's is giving its loyalty program a makeover to better serve small and mid-sized professional contractors. The home improvement retailer has changed its MVPs Pro Rewards & Partnership Program into the new MyLowe's Pro Rewards. The updated program aims to make life easier for professionals while offering more benefits from their first purchase.
Ace Hardware is reimagining itself with a new store concept. The home improvement retailer plans to invest over $1 billion in the next five years to roll out "Elevate Ace" across new and existing locations. The revamped stores will feature brand showrooms, expanded product lines, and enhanced customer service. Some locations will even boast outdoor spaces with live plant displays. Ace gave retailers a sneak peek at the concept during its recent Chicago convention. While a few stores will debut the new look later this year, the full rollout begins in January.
Ace Hardware is hammering out an impressive growth story. The retailer-owned cooperative is celebrating its 100th anniversary with a bang, reaching 5,000 U.S. stores and planning to open 200 new locations in 2024. The company hit a milestone when it opened its 100th new store this year in Henderson, Nevada. Another newcomer, Fixit Ace Hardware in Roswell, Georgia, became the 5,000th domestic Ace store.
In the latest move of its growth plan, leading paint maker Dunn-Edwards just opened 17 new retail locations throughout Northern California. This expansion of physical stores boosts the company's footprint in the region by over 50%.
The expansion caps an exciting time for the nearly 100-year-old company. With its 100th anniversary in 2025, Dunn-Edwards is strengthening its market position through planned growth focused on better serving pros, homeowners and employees.
