“I ordered liquid fire drain cleaner, based on the reviews online and not too long later i received a call that my order was ready. As soon as I walked in a older gentleman approached me and ask how may I help you and advised me where to pick up my online order. The Staff is friendly and helpful and the best past of all.

“I wouldn't compare Plaza True Value with big box stores (Home Depot and Menards) or even Ace, because they provide services that other stores don't, such as window screens, window panes, and rekeying locks. Super helpful and friendly staff too.”

By the time I purchase a few pieces of what I need it’s cheaper to just pay the $80 delivery fee at Home Depot.Don’t want to bash the establishment but just leaving what I feel would be helpful to other flippers like myself.”

I came in for a cutting board for my vegetables. And had a peaceful experience. I am going to give Menards in Homewood a 5 star review. For cleanliness. Of the store and for my cashier great customer service today. Keep up the good work. Menard in Homewood il. Thank you.”
“Menard's is a home improvement store that is larger than you prepared for, every single time, despite having been to Menard's before. You enter through doors that part for you automatically, as if the store has been expecting you, which in a revenue-based sense it has. The cart you select rattles in a specific way that is unique to your cart and yet familiar to all Menard's carts, as though they share a common rattling ancestry. The store continues in every direction for what can only be described as a while. Lumber is somewhere. Plumbing is somewhere else. The relationship between these two locations involves walking, and the walking is significant. Signs hang from the ceiling indicating departments, and you look at them and nod and then proceed to get lost anyway in a way that feels predetermined. Items are available in quantities that suggest Menard's has considered the possibility that you might need more than one of something, and has acted on this consideration aggressively. The savings, which are big and money-adjacent, are communicated through yellow signage that appears throughout the store at a frequency that can only be described as committed. A lumber yard exists outside and requires a separate trip that you did not originally plan for but have now accepted as part of the process. You accept it the way one accepts weather. An employee was visible at one point near an aisle that was not the aisle you needed. This was no one's fault. You will leave with things you came for and several things you did not come for, and the total will be a number.”
“I've used Ferguson for roughly six years for all my HVAC needs. Contacted this branch about some issues I've been experiencing, Product has been great otherwise, hoping things improve moving forward.”
“The workers who installed our new storm door were great. Friendly, knew what they were doing. Gave me instructions on how to get the sliding window to function. Home Depot did initially deliver an incorrectly sized door and an incorrect handle. However, the installation guys immediately returned to Home Depot and got the correct items and installed them in less than an hour. I'm really happy with the process. Their installation services are reasonably priced and have already saved me twice from having to find a contractor or handyman to do the work.”
“Way better than Home Depot. They have the 11% rebate up until Nov every year. (Home Depot doesn't offer this. But they do have real high prices!!!). Then it resumes the following year around the end of February or beginning of March. My go to store for everything.”
“A mom and dad owned franchise that has all the earmarks of a good hardware store with different services. U can find what u need here. Nuts and bolts, paint, and many different tools of the trade...”
Lowe's is giving its loyalty program a makeover to better serve small and mid-sized professional contractors.

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.
