“First time visiting Howes. Needed 2 glass panes for an outdoor lamppost fixture, to replace ones that were broken. I dropped the like samples off at 4:00 pm Thur and they were ready by 9:00 am Friday. Panes were trapezoid, not rectangular. It was super easy and the glass looks great. Rep was welcoming and the price was fair.”
“Well stocked inventory and very knowledgeable staff. Show room is next level if your not sure on what you want the sales team will help you sort through all the designs and products. Installed a Soaker tub which I later discovered had some damage. Hajoca and Vendor worked with me on Replacing the tub.”

“Lancaster Fastening comes through for me every time, no matter the fasteners I've needed or the tools to install them, all for a reasonable price! No other hardware or box store can even come close!”
“Weinstein Supply stepped up when another Bathroom Supply Company dropped the ball on our Swanstone Walls and Shower Door and had the materials to us within 6 weeks. We had been waiting on the Swanstone Walls from the other company since the beginning of January 2021 and were told in July that Swanstone did not have the order and we would have to reorder at the current pricing. We cancelled that order and went with Weinstein. Rose is on the ball and answered all of our questions and went out of her way to make sure we had the best match for what we wanted. This is an awesome company and I would highly recommend them.”
“As an electrical contractor who’s in supply houses every week, it takes a lot for one to stand out. This United Electric location in Lancaster did exactly that. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this is a well-run operation built with contractors in mind.
For the size of the showroom, the amount of inventory they carry is honestly surprising. Everything is clean, organized, and easy to navigate. It’s clearly built for contractors who need to get in, get what they need, and get back to work without wasting time.
Strong selection across the board. Square D, electrical boxes, connectors, zip ties, and a full lineup of tools including Milwaukee, Klein, Ideal, Greenlee, and Brady. You can tell they stock with intention, not just quantity. And that’s only the showroom. There’s a full warehouse behind it with even more inventory ready to go.
Trevor at the counter was outstanding. He took the time to explain what’s in stock, what qualifies for same day delivery within their 25 mile range, and what can be sourced quickly from other locations. That kind of clarity is huge when you’re managing jobs and timelines.
Also want to give a shout out to Jordan Weimer. He’s been a great rep to work with and consistently makes sure we’re taken care of.
Another thing that stood out is their investment in training. They’re not just pushing products, they’re helping contractors stay sharp. From NEC code updates to OSHA, NFPA, safety certifications, and equipment training, they offer a wide range of classes that actually add value to the trade.
Between the inventory, organization, lighting, knowledgeable staff, and overall professionalism, this is a very well run operation. Even had help loading material into the truck, which says a lot about their level of service.
If you’re a contractor in the Lancaster area, this is absolutely a supply house you want in your rotation.”
“Nothing like going to Home Depot on a Sunday morning.
You can't beat these prices and you always can find what you need much better than at Lowe's”
“Haven't been to this location in the past year. My hydrangea plant was put in sideways in my front yard so I needed to find something to keep them up as my mesh I wrapped around wasn't strong enough. I found small trellises and asked one of the employees in the blue vest if she thought they would help. She stopped what she was doing, listened and told me the different options I could use. She showed me the tomato cages and they were just what I needed and in my budget. She even offered to put the other trellis away for me. I Than
ked her and said I haven't been able to get help from associates the other times that I've been here. It made my day and my plants!”
“Darion has been a big help to me the last two times I shopped here. He was friendly, had a great attitude and was eager to help me. Darion took his job to help customers seriously”
“We recently built a new home with EGStoltzfus, and Yale Electric handled all of our lighting selections and orders. Kim did an excellent job communicating with us throughout the process, making sure we understood our options and that our fixtures fit perfectly with our vision for the home.
A heads-up for anyone planning a visit: their showroom is now appointment-only, so make sure to schedule ahead before you drive there.
Overall, we were very pleased with their service and would highly recommend Yale Electric for anyone building a home or updating their lighting.”
