“Menards great pricing . The surrounding streamwood centre is full of competitors retail, just minutes away although traffic could get congested. But a majority of the surrounding storefronts compliment streamwood if you choose to drive during non congested hours.”

“I found Around Town Glass & Mirror in April 2025. I needed my glass shower door acrylic strip replaced - it had become cracked and difficult to clean. Not only did they replace, they showed me how to clean and what to clean with to not damage. In addition, they adjusted the door so it would swing closed. Cost $60.00.
I thought that was a fair cost.
As they were leaving, I inquired if they replaced glass in mirrors.
I handed over a full length antique morror encased in wood that belonged to my Great Grandmother. I requested a beveled mirror. That took about 4 weeks and was a little under $300.00 (what I expected). Both jobs were executed beautifully and professionally.”

“I had such an exceptional experience at this Home Depot location that I felt compelled to share it.

After visiting multiple stores trying to find a plant that matched the aesthetic I needed for my office, I kept running into limitations and was honestly feeling discouraged. When I arrived at this location, I was greeted by Aidan, who immediately stood out for his kindness and willingness to help. He took the time to really listen to what I was trying to accomplish and genuinely cared about finding a solution.

Shortly after, the manager, Shi, stepped in — and together, they went above and beyond to make something work for me. What impressed me the most was not just that they helped, but how they helped: with positivity, creativity, and a true customer-first attitude that I hadn’t experienced at other locations.

Aidan personally assisted me every step of the way, and both him and Shi made me feel like my request truly mattered. Even when I had to come back with a small issue afterward, Shi handled it with the same level of professionalism and kindness, immediately resolving it without hesitation.

It’s rare to come across people who genuinely care about customer experience the way they do. Their attitude, patience, and willingness to go the extra mile made a lasting impression on me.

Thank you, Aidan and Shi — you turned what had been a frustrating search into such a positive and memorable experience. I truly appreciate you both.”

“First time trying out their dog wash today.I'm very Happy I did! it's very clean, the staff was super nice and accommodating. I like that they have raised wash areas and grooming areas to dry the dogs, good water pressure, hoses that you can change the stream and decent dryers. They supply some of the different shampoos that they carry I did try their sensitive one and so far it seems to have caused no irritation for a very sensitive skin dog. I like that they supply more than one towel like some other places do.
Tractor supply company is a little gym in Carpentersville that I often forget about and every time I go I really like it. They hire friendly staff and it's always clean and they have a lot of variety.”

“Great service, helpful and knowledgeable people, competitive prices. A great “go to” when you need to get projects done. What you need is in stock and immediately available. The staff knows the projects in their department and will help when a project crosses over multiple departments. They also know the latest products available and can inform and demonstrate them. Way better than your father’s hardware store. The team at the Palatine store is outstanding.”

“I’ve been a life-long Home Depot customer and they’ve earned my trust and loyalty. Nothing but amazing things happening at this local Palatine Home Depot! They really embody “How Doers Get More Done. You can do it. We can help” mindset. I don’t believe there was ever a time I came in and they didn’t have what I was looking for or HELPED ME by any means get what I needed.

Note to MANAGEMENT: Sadly though, I had to report a concerning experience I had with COREY in the Plumbing department. I came into the store looking for an adapter for a new shower head I was installing. Corey approached me and offered his help, which I accepted. Without checking inventory or offering to look further, he immediately stated, “We don’t have it here. Try buying from the manufacturer.” This response was both dismissive, super unhelpful, and highly inconvenient. Based on prior positive visits at this store, I found it surprising that no effort was made on Corey’s part to verify availability, other than “try somewhere else.” After Corey walked away, I continued exploring on my own. It took me 20 minutes, but eventually I located the exact adapter I needed that was in-stock!! It was a perfect fit! What was Corey talking about? Did he not want to truly help? Or was he inexperienced and should not be working in plumbing?

Also, while I was testing fittings, I observed and overheard multiple other customers approach Corey for assistance. On every single occasion, I heard him respond with the same statement he gave me moments ago: “We don’t have it here, try elsewhere.” This pattern suggests a lack of effort to assist customers and raises serious concerns about potential lost sales and diminished customer experience. I’m a business owner and thats bad for any business. I truly value Home Depot’s expertise and typically receive excellent service from other employees. However, this first-time interaction with Corey demonstrated poor customer service, unhelpfulness, and blatant misrepresentation of product availability. You would think they want to do everything possible to keep my business, not the exact opposite and send me and many others away. I’m glad I ultimately found what I needed, but the store nearly lost my business due to this experience. Can you image how many hundreds or thousands of dollars this business lost?

I hope this feedback helps improve service standards moving forward.”

“John and Tony, who drive the forklift in the yard, were very helpful to me. They were very knowledgeable, efficient, and polite. I needed a total of 34 bags of river rock loaded into my car, which I could never have done on my own. Very grateful they were there and so willing to help. Please add Luke to the list of good guys who know what they’re doing and provide great help when you need it.”

“We bought a table here. They disassembled it for me so that it could get into the car. The staff is very friendly, they told me everything and answered all my questions (taking into account that I am not very fluent in English). I liked the furniture, but it is constantly changing there.”

“I had to get a new faucet and the supervisor in the faucet department gave me an incredible deal and was absolutely above and beyond with help. I feel bad cause I forgot his name. But I will be going back for any home needs for sure. Pretty sure , this is the only five star I ever gave.”

“Nino at the Pro desk goes above and beyond to assist his customers. Thank you to Nino for your help! I purchased an EMAX Compressor and it was just delivered. I don't think I will ever have to purchase another compressor as long as I live! This thing is a beast!!”

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Home Depot and was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional customer service provided by Chris G and his manager, Traci. From the moment I entered the store, Chris was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. He took the time to understand my needs and guided me to the right products with patience and expertise.

What stood out even more was the support and leadership demonstrated by Traci. She ensured that the store was running smoothly and that all customers were receiving top-notch service. Her professionalism and dedication to her team were evident, and it was clear that she fosters a positive and efficient work environment.

Together, Chris and Traci made my shopping experience at Home Depot a truly pleasant one. Their commitment to excellent customer service is commendable, and I highly recommend this location for anyone in need of home improvement assistance. Thank you, Chris and Traci, for your outstanding service!”

“Patrick was very professional and took care of my entire kitchen quickly and it was affordable. The delivery was fast as well and everything arrived in 10/10 condition. Highly recommend!!!”

“Employee of the day, week, month possibly year would be Leslie at the front. She greeted me this morning when I bought a propane tank. Working's hard working on Saturdays can be harder. It's nice to have people who care about what they do and I'll always be back to the store because of that”

“Honestly the Green has steadily improved over the years. And I definitely prefer it here over the Orange or the Blue.
Lumber, millwork, etc still has some quality issues, and they still pile all the picked-through trash back onto the stack instead of RTVing it.
But they keep the stores clean, the staff seems happy to be at work, and their prices are usually the best of the three.”

“Barry and Mitch were very helpful and answered all of my questions so I could get the lights that were appropriate. However I didn't get (honestly I didn't think to ask) a hard copy of the protection plan I paid for. It took me more than 35 min to get any info via phone and then it was wrong. I did call the store and the nice person told me where I could get it online. Seems I'm not in the system so i will have to fight that battle another day.”
