“Amazing customer service! I needed something from the hardware store after they had already closed, and Zak, Naz, and Lou went above and beyond by opening the store back up just to help me. They were extremely kind, patient, and helpful and made sure I got exactly what I needed.
It’s rare to find this level of customer service and people who genuinely care about their customers. Zak, Naz, and Lou truly saved the day for me. I really appreciate them going out of their way, especially so late. Highly recommend this hardware store definitely deserving of 5 stars!”
“Great service! GM, helped me pick the perfect paint for my house. He was knowledgeable, patient, and didn't push anything I didn't need. The colors look amazing. Highly recommend!”
“I had an amazing experience at this paint store thanks to Clissman. He was very knowledgeable, patient, courteous, and extremely helpful throughout my visit. He took the time to recommend the correct paint for my outdoor deck and assisted with color matching, making the entire process much easier for me.
He also recommended a cherry-scented cleaning solution, which smells great and was a thoughtful suggestion. I am very satisfied with the service I received today and truly appreciate his professionalism.
I hope he gets recognized for his excellent customer service. He was especially patient and understanding, even when I felt unsure or needed extra guidance.”
“Most helpful and on point staff at any paint store in NYC. They provide amazing service and have all the best products from festool, to general finishers and fine paints of Europe. Amazing resource whether your a professional painter or a DIY homeowner”
“Great selection of paints and hardware, plus friendly, knowledgeable staff. Found exactly what I needed quickly, and the prices were fair. Will definitely be back!”
“I never leave reviews but I had to. 100000000/10, my first time wall painting and I knew nothing, Agatha and the team were so incredible and patient with me as I stopped by countless times to mix and match colors, buy supplies and try to figure out what the hell I had gotten myself into, they couldn’t have been more thorough, patient, generous and kind. Agatha you are the embodiment of community, you deserve the world and more, thank you for being so passionate and knowledgable about what you do and always going so above and beyond to help .”
“Great service, Very helpful for all your needs may be by the paint hardware or kitchens I find all the employees they are very friendly and helpful special shout out for chiu

“Impeccable customer service. Chris gave me a master class on how to finish wood- he was honest, thorough, not pushy, and I got what I need at a fair price. Thank you!”
“I had the pleasure of being assisted by Loraine at Sherwin-Williams, and I cannot speak highly enough of her! She went above and beyond to help me with my paint selection, providing expert advice and patiently answering all my questions. Her warm and lovely demeanor made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. If you’re looking for exceptional service, Loraine is definitely the person to go to”
“Two Words..Great Service. Needed a particular color matched and they hit the nail right on the money.
They matched the color ,as well as the paint type and I was out the door with enough time to grab lunch.
Thank you. Much appreciated 👏”
“This is the place to go if you need painting supplies in Boro Park. Prices are excellent and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They also have all types of tools and perks you'll need in your paint project. I always use then.”
“Recently completed a construction project in the neighborhood and Ben’s hardware store was super helpful with day-to-day handles and materials.Incredibly friendly and helpful man.”
“Went to visit the store on a rainy weekday around 8AM and as soon as I walked in, Danny greeted me with a big smile on his face. Danny was so energetic and eager to help even though it was barely past 8AM. I was in & out of the store in less than 15 minutes with everything I needed. Thank you Danny.”
“Great staff. They matched the colors exactly, explained to me all the differences in finish, quality, endurance, sheen. Water vs oil, dry times, helped me with understanding when to remove tape. I bought supplies other than paint from Amazon before the project too and I regret it. The supplies at paint by George are higher quality than what you find on Amazon and at a lower price.”
“Abbot is the best place for the pro and the DYI wood finishes. Great advice and things in stock that are hard to find in paint stores. Jim is very helpful and friendly.”

“This place is great! Literally has everything every tool every piece of wood. You need best place love it! Customer service is great people. They are great. Best hardware store around!”
“Raymond and Joe were so helpful in choosing a paint color and allowing me to pay in advance for the painter to pick up the next day. Being from out of town they were very gracious and provided excellent customer service.”
“Absolutely amazing experience at True Value! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by Chaim and the friendliest, very knowledgeable staff who went above and beyond to help me with everything I needed. Whether you’re a DIYer or a professional, they make sure you're taken care of. They helped me pick out the perfect colors for my project and even gave expert advice on the best products for long-lasting results. The store is well-stocked, and the quality of their paints is top-notch. I’ve never had such a smooth, enjoyable shopping experience, and the team’s genuine kindness made me feel like a valued customer. Highly recommend this store to anyone. You won’t find better service, truly the best!”
“Needed paint for the apartment in PLG. Looked around for the closest Benjamin Moore distributor from where the apartment is and found this place. It does not have an online presence, but it exists as of the date of this review. That area of Church Ave seems to have been built up since Google took its photo for Street View. My assumption is that the building was leased on the cheap and franchised as a paint supplier with the knowledge that the neighborhoods along trains (this being fairly close to the 2, 5) are the first to be revitalized.Service was very good. I was a little confused when I was telling the clerk the color I needed. I speak newscaster English so when he asked me to write down the spelling, I was a little befuddled.2 gallons of cheap latex flat, 6 or so tray liners, 3 rollers, and 2 cheap brushes ended up a little over $70. Not sure if that's inexpensive or average for the city.”
“I’ve been working with Abbott for almost 5-6 years now, Best products to find around. Great service, daily deliveries, on time, reliable. Also, when it comes to matching a color on an existing / continues job , i dont think there is anyone that can match as perfect as they do. Steven is my assigned Representative, couldn’t be happier to work with!!! Truly amazing service and products! 5 stars well deserved!”
“They can match any color you can bring in! Give my man a few minutes, and he'll come back with the same color! He matched the paint that I couldn't find anywhere!”
“I cannot recommend this team highly enough. They exemplify professional courtesy, offering comprehensive explanations and a generous allocation of their expertise.”

“The staff perfectly tinted primer for me (a task I thought was impossible because of the nature of the specific primer I needed), and gave me excellent advice that aided in the success of my mural project! I needed a lot of primer and they had it in stock, and other Benjamin Moore stores nearby didn’t. They also loaded the paint in my car. Amazing customer service!!!”
“I had to recycle/return some paint cans this morning and the young woman who helped me could not have been nicer. I don’t know if she was the owner or an employee, but I felt I had to mention this. I wish I would have asked her name! My bad 😞 but based on that experience I would say it’s definitely a place I’d patronize. I know my painter buys paint, etc there. Thank you DIY”
“They're not that bad. It is difficult to get clear answers from them regarding their products. However, if you do your research before visiting, you should be fine. They do have a good range of products for a neighborhood store. And yes, it's great to support a local business.”
“This place to buy a paint the person he has so much knowledge that paints he will recommend you anything really good for the project price is great customer service outstanding in and out easy parking. He have all kind of brushes, all kind of caulking, all kind of paint tools, don’t miss out satisfaction guarantee I am loving it”
“Good quality paint overall. Prices are okay/not great, but at least it is convenient when you need something quick. I did a color match one time - it wasn’t the best, I wanted dark brown, got a similar dark purple. Other than that I would go back for supplies. It saves me a trip to Home Depot for only a small amount of savings.”

“I love this hardware store! They are so friendly and helpful even if you don’t really know what you’re doing. I have been in some unfriendly hardware stores and this one really stands out.”
“Jacob, the young man is fantastic.
His level of kindness and willingness to help even for the very small and minor area is 10/10.
I left the store feeling very happy and with heartfelt humanity which is lacking and very rare these days.
God bless you young man!”
