“Ace IS the place. Seriously - the folks here help you find exactly what you need. So much knowledge and experience - great service. My go-to hardware store for DIT fix-it’s and chores I do t want to do like having screens replaced. 5 stars!”
“Had to get my car key fob programmed. The guy at Ace Hardware was pretty friendly and gave me a great deal to program two key fobs; there was no wait—he went right to it.”
“Hidden gem! Great selection, always helpful, fair pricing. They have a deck/fence product called Ready Seal in several colors. My favorite product ever to use on a deck. Looks so rich”
“I recently placed an online order with a tight window for use to finish up a project. I emailed and asked what day it would be set to arrive, and not only did they go out of their way to make sure it was in time, they paid for the additional cost at no charge to me. 10/10 customer service, and absolutely will be shopping here again. That kind of service is hard to find!”
“ACE employees are always very attentive, helpful and friendly. I didn't need help this trip, as I was just buying lightbulbs, and I knew where they were and what kind I wanted, but both employees offered help if I needed it.”
“Well stocked, well organized and clean store with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Our capacitor in our furnace failed on a Saturday afternoon and it was only 20 degrees outside. I looked online and Ace hardware was the only store in town with the part in stock. I drove across town and this was my first time in the store. The price was extremely fair and I will be back often.”
“This has become my new favorite Sherwin by far. The level of customer service iv had so far at this location has been unmatched. This one dude (i think Alonzo is his name) looks to always be giving an extra effort to make customers feel important and appreciated. Give that fella a bonus.”
“Truly great job by Mark and his Team at the PPG Store on ne14th today. They took a difficult paint color and fixed it in one shot. No wonder they are the top rated PPG store for 2023! Thanks Guys!”
“Great local hardware shop. They typically have what I need and their rewards program helps them stay competitive with Walmart and Amazon. Plus it's way more convenient then trying to find something in the bigger hardware/ home improvement stores.”
“Always super friendly and helpful! Last night I had a plumbing issue. I called 5 minutes prior to closing and they confirmed they would stay open for me to get there. Just amazing service!! I think his name was Seth, who was actually outside waiting for me to pull up and walked me back to the plumbing section and another employee help us find exactly what I needed!”
“I have purchased paint many times at Sherwin Williams. The paint quality is great. My favorite store is WDM on Grand Ave. Alonso is especially friendly and willing to help in every way possible. I really appreciate his kindness and professionalism!!”
“Very pleased with the service and product line. Last visit, Aiden helped me in the store's closing minutes to match an obscure paint color for a restoration project where I only had a decades old recipe to help. Aiden over-delivered and got the color spot on using modern product and formulations. This all comes after another SW location told me it couldnn't be done. The Merle Hay location is where I will be taking my business and recommending others use.
The store also is carrying Level5 product now which makes me excited for the other projects coming up.”
“Great to have a hardware store back in the Northside. The customer service has been top notch with every trip in. From a propane refill to equipment rentals, Ankeny hardware has got it.”

“I come here for all of my paint/ supplies and each time I have a great experience. I especially want to share a thanks to the manager. He really goes out of his way for his customers. Thank you for always being so helpful and kind! 10/10 recommend this place. All of the staff are lovely.”
“Could not be any happier with my local Sherwin Williams paint store. I have stopped at several other locations and have never received better service than I get at SE side store! Their customer service couldn’t be better. They deserve a raise!!!!”
“Love coming here for all my painting projects. I believe the lady that works here is named Emily, she has short hair. She’s always super helpful and kind I really appreciate all her work!”
“The staff at Cappel's Ace Hardware is welcoming and goes above and beyond to provide exceptional customer service. I appreciate their knowledge and recommendations for my home and lawn projects.”
“Great experience with all the employees including the younger gal that helped me with interior paint. Another different SW store in Waukee couldn't even tell me what paint finish their samples were. I also refinished some Cushman furniture and their stain match was perfect!”
“One of the best, if not the very best, home improvement and hardware store that I habe ever been to. Very neat, well organized, and friendly and knowledgable staff!”

“We recently visited menards and specifically the ceiling fan section. There was a gentleman that was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We walked out blown away by his customer service .”
“I went in seeking a paint match for a repair job on the exterior of my house. My 1st attempt at a match at a different location (big box store) was a complete fail.
My 2nd stop should, which should have been my first, Sherwin Williams in Grimes. The young lady who helped me was a delight to work with. When she showed me the matching paint after it was applied to my sample, I was unable to locate where the match paint was applied to my sample. SCORE! Thank you so much for the amazing service, and I will always choose Sherwin Williams for my 1st stop relating to every paint. She saved me SOOO much additional work today. The paint match was spot on.”
“I first shopped at Johnston ACE Hardware during the short time (3 years) I lived in Johnston. I was very impressed and grateful for their knowledge, willingness to make suggestions, and steer me in the "right direction". I am not very experienced with "hardware"-related matters. I moved into Des Moines, but I still return to the Johnston store when I need assistance with hardware-related issues. Thank you!”
