“Island Catchment helped our family immensely when we urgently needed a new 10k gallon tank. Communication with the owner, job crew quality and punctuality, pricing and all interactions were as good as anything you'll find on the Big Island. I highly recommend this company if you're in need of a new catchment system.”

“My local hardware store! So stoked on the Father's Day event where everything you can fill in the bucket is 20% off. Great idea! This store and the staff are super convenient over the years. Just got some shade cloth and spray paint this time. But whenever I need any part to finish the job or repair something, I go here first. They sometimes put a bunch of items on clearance, plus you get monthly deals if you join. During COVID, they had a demo on the wall for how to build your own bidet - it's the small things like that that make this place stand out. For bulk materials, I tend to go somewhere a bit less expensive, but if you take advantage of the location and the deals, this is often the most convenient option for small jobs. Still got my aluminum water pump from here over 5 years ago - works great and is much quieter. Worth mentioning, because sometimes they also have better parts for local jobs, like off-grid things. They know the area they serve well.”

“Honestly, it's as good as it gets for a community store. They usually have what I need to finish s project if I've forgotten something. It will be more expensive but what's it worth to not drive to keaau or Hilo? The deli is awesome. Good customer service, great sandwiches, French dip is ono.”
