Hardware Stores in Bloomington, IL

“Store was well stocked and staffed. Employees were eager to help and maintained a friendly atmosphere. The only downside is the parking in relation to the store. The store is built on the highside of a hill at the corner of an intersection with the parking lot being on the other side of the store with a large ramp to access. Only an issue when purchasing large bulky items but store employee's were happy to help.”

“Alright, gearheads and yard warriors, listen up! Blain's Farm & Fleet is basically my personal hardware Disneyland. They've got every doodad you could ever imagine, from those teeny-tiny screws that make you question your eyesight to those fire-breathing generators that could probably power a small concert. Prices are decent, but the real gems are the employees. These folks aren't just walking around stocking shelves – they're like fix-it ninjas with a bottomless well of knowledge.The other day, my lawnmower decided to take a permanent siesta, leaving me with a yard that looked like it belonged in a horror movie for overgrown weeds. Knowing Blain's is my happy place, I hightailed it over there faster than a squirrel with a peanut allergy. Within what felt like two shakes of a lamb's tail, I found this awesome dude named Bob (seriously, this guy could fix anything with a roll of duct tape and a prayer). He listened to my panicked rambling about carburetors and spark plugs (which are basically the same thing, right Bob?) and then, like a miracle worker, pointed me to the exact parts I needed. Bam! New spark plug, new air filter, and my mower's back to purring like a kitten on catnip.Seriously can't recommend this place enough. It's your one-stop shop for anything that needs a good ol' fashioned DIY fix. Just a heads-up: wear comfy shoes because you'll be there for a while browsing all the cool gadgets and gizmos. This place is like a black hole for your wallet, but in the best way possible!”

“Great location, and a superb amount of quality products!The entire staff; especially Jake have been a great help to me! I can't say enough about the guys in the yard; fantastic help! Being a contractor for 54 years I know that a good business starts from the top and I can honestly say that R&P lumber in Bloomington,Il. goes beyond the extra mile to make sure I'm happy with my purchases! Kudo's to R&P lumber!”

“I always get my nuts here, they always have good sales on them. This was my first time at this store but I've been in a similar store (Fleet farm). Clean store.”

“Purchased a grill to include assembly and delivery. There was a mistake made on my order and the grill was delivered in the box. The delivery guys were super helpful and accommodating. They took the grill back and coordinated with the delivery manager Todd. Todd called me shortly after the mixup and took care of things behind the scenes with no effort from me, and my grill was delivered assembled perfectly the next morning on their first stop. Great customer service resolving the issue. It’s awesome to experience this old school customer care!”
