“The friendly neighborhood hardware store - I could not recommend them enough. Stopped in for paint this morning and Will took great care of me. I had to buy over 4 gallons of color-matched paint and was in/ out in less than 20 minutes. The whole team here is helpful, knowledgable, and you can tell they're just good people in general. Very glad they are so conveniently located in Courthouse.”
“Potomac Paint in Arlington has been incredibly helpful throughout our full home renovation. In particular, Khalim was innovative and went above and beyond when staining a T-molding to perfectly match the tricky color of our engineered hardwood. My contractor said it would be impossible unless it was factory-made, yet Khalim somehow made it happen. We were thoroughly impressed! I would say this is the best paint store in the DMV region.”
“I would give Tehyana and Jamie 5 stars any day. They were so helpful and understanding of our situation. However, on our first visit to this store we were assisted by an employee who apparently was the manager. To say he wasn’t helpful would be an understatement. I brought a small sample of the wall we were trying to touch up to see if he could color match it. He proceeded to ask me what kind of paint I wanted to which I replied what do you suggest in this type of scenario? We were hopeful that he would provide an adequate recommendation, seeing as how he is a subject matter expert at this. Unfortunately, all he said was “I dont know” and chose the type for us. Once our paint was ready, he didn’t even bother to show us that the color matched which I thought it was weird. We went to get some brushes and rollers and when we were ready to check out we stood at the register for a good 30 seconds before he even noticed us, since he was too busy on his phone. No receipt was provided, which I know I should have asked. Back at our place, we realized that the paint we had bought was no where close to what we wanted. It actually was the wrong type and the color was way off. We decided to go back to the same store since it was the only one open and that is when Tehyana and Jamie came through. Not only were they helpful and attentive, but they were also able to provide the paint at no cost once we explained to them what had happened earlier. Again, the comparison between the two visits and how we were treated was out of this world.”
