“This place is what hardware stores used to be. The crew here is incredibly friendly and actually knows their stuff. Every time I go in, someone asks if I need help and they genuinely mean it - not just pointing you to an aisle, but walking you through solutions.
Yeah, prices might be a bit higher than Home Depot or Lowe's, but I'll gladly pay the difference. At the big boxes you're wandering around forever trying to find someone, and when you do they have no clue. Here? They know exactly what you need and often suggest better solutions than what you came in for.
The team remembers customers and treats you like a neighbor, not a transaction. That matters. If you value actual expertise and friendly service over saving two bucks, this is your spot. Love this crew.”
“Dan greeted me with a huge smile as soon as I walked in. He was kind, patient and knowledgeable. I found what I needed and was out in less than 10 minutes. Not to many people left that are friendly and customer oriented. Thank you Dan!”
“I wish people would stop reviewing this Ace and giving the garden center such high praise. I want it to be my secret.
Seriously, best Ace garden center ever. Great staff. Healthy plants. Great prices. Love this place. There are 2 aces significantly closer to me, but when I want a plant, I will absolutely drive this far.
Their plants are healthier then some nurseries in the area, by far.”

“I had two stops to accomplish. Ace for some hardware & then to grocery store for chicken seasoning. I walk in & noticed some meat rubs on displayed & I checked to see if they had some seasonings. As I was looking, I was about to bypass the display & go get the hardware I needed when I noticed a huge section behind the display of all kinds of rubs, spices, & SEASONINGS, CHICKEN SEASONING to boot!! I got two things done in one stop, THANKS!!”
“Who doesn't love harbor freight? I'm not going to pay hundreds for the same thing. More than likely there is project I saw on Pinterest I'm attempting so until I see a need to spend hundreds of dollars on a drill and even if I do , harbor freight will be my place to go. Budget friendly to expert quality and large selection so how could you go wrong?”
“I placed my order online but did call the store and spoke to someone about how long it might take to receive my chain hoist since it was not available in the store (shipped from the factory).
I got my answer that it might take 10 days to arrive. So I placed my order.”

“Mr. Michael in paint was amazing. Super helpful and intuitive. Helped me get through my list 10x faster. Great guy with tons of knowledge. Took great care of me and my brother.”
“Home Depot always has what I need. Better than Lowe's in my experience. Even if HD doesn't have what I need Lowe's is right next to it so I just go to both”
“Store associate Owen was extremely helpful in educating us about starting a vegetable garden. He explained everything we needed to get off the ground, literally, and answered all of our questions. We were very impressed with him.”
