“Great free parking out front. I was looking for something to fill the gap of a Habitat for Humanity ReStore and this isn’t quite it. They have more of a specialized and antique vibe. Perfect if you’re restoring an old home as they have lots of crystal door knobs, stained glass windows and brass odds and ends. Not so great if you’re just looking for a deal in upgrading your apartment fixtures from the landlord special.”

“Best shopping experience ever. I know nothing about plumbing and I need to change the drain on my sink. I show a photo of the pipe I have to change and two minutes later, I have all the parts I need in hand, valuable advice on how to do the job well and a smile on my face. I felt like I was shopping in the past, when service and human contact still existed.”

8742 Rue de Grosbois, Montréal QC H1K 2G7
“This is my go-to hardware store from now on. I was commissioned to paint some melamine cabinets, I've never done that before, and after doing loads of online research I visited de Grosbois for the first time, then a variety of the big paint stores around the city for prices and such.. ended up coming right back de Grosbois. The expertise the staff gave was top-notch, the Adhero 290 was water-based which was important for me and the price was better or on par with the big paint stores, the sandpaper selection blew me away, I wasn't expecting the Swiss-made metal+ sandpapers in various grits, nor the fabric-backed sandpapers in a small shop, and definitely not at a good price (which they were!) For every question I asked I got responses that aligned with my research. The Adhero 290 primer worked very well undiluted with my 600w electric spray gun, and the MF kitchen and bathroom paint was perfectly colour-matched to the card number and adhered perfectly to the primer. I received only good service in this little shop.”
