“The best thing they have going for them is that they're not Lowe's. The customer service people at Lowe's are very very rude. However, the customer service of people at home Depot seemed to be non-existent. But when compared to very very rude I'll take it. I'd rather not be talked down to due to not being talked to at all.”
“Called to rent a truck on Sunday morning . Wes answered all our questions and confirmed he had truck available. Asked for my first name. We got there within an hour. No formal reservation. Truck was in great condition - had ~8000 miles We got a box truck to 12 feet. Had lights inside the back, a ramp, and back up camera. It comes with a hand cart. Other companies don't include hand cart. Other companies charge mileage above flat fee. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Thank you! Plus Home Depot rents other equipment.”
“These guys are the best. I’ve been coming here for years since I live down the street, but Alex did a terrific job helping me match the paint so I can sell my house. I knew it was a complicated order, but he handled everything like a pro. The color matched what I needed, so I’m satisfied.”
“A great hardware store is hard to find these days and Snyders' fits the bill ! They have everything u could possibly need and will order hard to find items with fast delivery.”
“I love these folks. They know their stuff and they know how to make it work. They even have a lamp fixing service. The staff has always been cheerful and helpful. Love supporting a local business Did know that Branmar hardware is a sister store? I drive across town be side they are with it. have not found them to cost more than the big box national chins that suck the blood out of our local community and in the long run, because of their help, I get things done right and I don’t have to keep going back to get something else or a different fix for a problem.”
“Walked in. Asked young team member where the small nuts and bolts and washers were. He showed me and helped make sure I chose the right pieces and then another fella came to help with a sprinkler and hose issue. He thought outside the box and I avoided using AM@##@... And drove home and solved all my problems inside of 10 min.”
“This store just moved to a new location. It's fully stocked with everything you will need, no reason to drive to HomeDepot. The owners are so helpful, you'd think they were running a non-profit organization.”
“I go to this hardware store frequently. They have EVERYTHING, but most importantly, GREAT ADVICE AND HELP! I talked with Helena Clair (no, we are not related), and she gave me FANTASTIC ADVICE regarding plumbing and some other issues. I strongly recommend this establishment!”
“Was a little nervous heading into Delaware County Supply as a female DIYer and not a contractor. No employees approached me in the store or the yard but I headed to the customer service counter and was pointed in the right direction. One of the lumber yard employees helped me find and price options for my project. Everyone was kind and helpful. I’ve been back a couple times to pick up additional supplies and the staff has even remembered me and asked how everything going. It’s great to have this store as an option other than just the big box stores!”
“Great experience at Wolfe’s Decorative Hardware & Accessories — I love my new door locks. The quality is excellent and such a great finishing touch. They completely upgraded the look of my doors.”
“This is an extraordinary place! Their hardware is well-made and looks great, and service is even better. The previous owner of our house had taken the bolt out of the rim lock on the front door, and two locksmiths passed on fixing it. When we took the lock off the door and went to Ball and Ball (on the advice of a restoration specialist), it turned out they knew exactly how to fix it which they did very promptly. Every aspect of our interaction with them was pleasant and their interventions effective with reasonable pricing.”
“Kept quietly behind the fence near the the liberty is a hardware store with many great prices. I went here to get a set of keys made and they was cheap and fast. But most importantly got it right the first time. If you want to support local businesses in Chester and want a fast quality product, these are your go to guys.”
“I had an idea of what I wanted when I went to the store in Philly. Laurel listened to me and offered to show me different pieces based on what I was looking for. I am so happy I agreed to her suggestion. I was indecisive and kept going back and forth about a couple of things. She patiently discussed everything with me, answered all my questions, and gave me several swatches for me to consider. She also emailed me the three different options I was considering. There was no pressure to purchase anything. Laurel was kind, patient, respectful, and an overall pleasure to work with.”
“Michelle helped me find a part which I cannot find anywhere else because it’s for a really old hydrant and the part is probably out of production. She helped me order it from the other Ferguson branch. Although it took a few days for the part to be delivered to West Chester, it’s worth the wait because the part fits my outdoor hydrant perfectly. This is a good store.”
“Very helpful even though I was notably the last customer of the day! They had closed the tile garage by the time I got outside, but a gentleman in the yard on a fork lift helped me anyway! Thanks guys”
“I stumbled across this place during a Google search for local hardware because I needed a copy of a key that couldn't be done at those kiosk things. Glad I came! Excellent customer service and now I have a mini home depot I can come to!”
“I’ve been buying my materials here for 25 years these guys are always fast efficient and friendly and if I’m in Westchester is the only place I’m going to go for my supplies”
“Yelp doesn't have an appropriate category for this. Discovered this place this fall while trying to find hardware for exterior doors we were both buying and having custom made. This place is for the serious shopper. You must make an appointment. No photography is allowed (I imagine they don't want window shoppers wasting their time taking pictures of amazing hardware and then trying to find it on Amazon or in a box store like Home Depot - spoiler alert...you won't so don't waste your time or there's). The selection was amazing. Modern to gothic. US to European. Door knobs to knockers and everything in-between. We had recently bought a new home designed to be Tudor but with Golden Girls taste everywhere. We wanted to beef up the historical look of the place and came here and found everything we needed. Their inventory is immense and their knowledge deep. Love this place!”
“Went in this morning looking for a new control board for my heater that had failed the night before. Chris went above and beyond to source me a new one as it was considered obsolete. With his help I was able to get my system up and running befire the coldest night of thr year set in. Will be coming back in future.”
“This place is great. I admit I often go to Home Depot for plumbing parts because it's closer, but when they don't have what I need, or what they do have is junk, I go to Grove Supply. I'm always surprised that the price is about the same. The parts are always better, and you can often get some advice while you're there. Grove even delivers for a very reasonable price. I wish it was closer to Media, PA.”
“Good evening Family. I visited today to ask a question about a weed wacker for the front yard. I needed a plug for it and I couldn't find it in the house. Customer service called for assistance and the associate came and helped me with my issue. It turns out that all I needed was an extension card and I have one at home. I am so happy that I did not have to spend any money. I will return home with the weed wacker and see if the extension cord fits. It turns out that it does and I am so happy about that. I had a good experience here. Have a good night, workout, be active and mobile, fit and fabulous especially for people over the age of 50 years.”
“We were very pleased to find HomeDecorHardware.com, as they stock hundreds of thousands of hard to find hardware items. They provide excellent customer service and fast shipping.”
“This week I visited the Home Depot in Wilmington to purchase a few items for a client project project that live close by After realizing that some of the materials I bought were too short, I returned to exchange them. Unfortunately, my experience at the customer service desk with Angela was one of the worst I've ever had at a Home Depot. She was very rude, unprofessional, and made me feel as though she had a personal issue with me during what should have been a simple return transaction. Thankfully, the manager, Christi, stepped in to assist. The difference in professionalism was immediately noticeable. Christi was respectful, patient, and took the time to listen while I explained the situation. Even while I was speaking with Christi, Angela continued talking from the back, interrupting and making inappropriate comments. Christi had to ask her to stop because it was disrespectful and unprofessional. Christi handled the situation with excellent customer service and completely changed what could have been a terrible experience. Because of her professionalism and willingness to help, I decided to leave a 5-star review. Otherwise, my experience with Angela alone would have deserved only 1 star. Thank you, Christi, for representing the level of customer service customers should expect from Home Depot.”
“Typical Home Depot. They had everything I needed. Helpful workers. Cashier found me, so I didn't have to wait in line! Went for a door. Workers were very helpful. We found everything we were looking for.”
“I am surprised by the low reviews. I have had very good service here. It is much, much better than the Lowe's at Brandywine Town Center. I have had attentive help, good experiences with returning things and a high level of satisfaction with the quality and the prices of the items I have bought. I HIGHLY recommend this store!! Bill D has helped me a couple times and he has been amazing and informative. Thank you Bill!!”
“I shopped here for a DIY project. This is on Lancaster Ave on the malvern/Frazer side. The parking is dedicated for this store. The staff is very friendly and assisted me in getting some materials that are needed for the project. They have a wide range of items of wood and the selection is robust and mrt my needs. Overall, it was a quick visit, but I got what I needed.”
“Just about anything you need. For household, remodeling, renovations. And much more, but all of the stuff are not that knowledgeable and their particular departments.”
“MJ in Kitchen Appliances is the Man! He went above and beyond to help me out. I was ordering a countertop and there was one left and he went out of his way even after being off the clock to display great customer service. I would strongly recommend getting Appliances from this location.”
Lowe's is giving its loyalty program a makeover to better serve small and mid-sized professional contractors. The home improvement retailer has changed its MVPs Pro Rewards & Partnership Program into the new MyLowe's Pro Rewards. The updated program aims to make life easier for professionals while offering more benefits from their first purchase.
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.
