“Honestly, this Ace has such amazing floor staff. They are all super knowledgeable and always eager to help. I really enjoy shopping here and getting not only what I need but often times getting an education on how to accomplish the project I am working on. I would specifically like to call out Jeff who always goes above and beyond to help any time I have a question.”
“This place is great!! If there is ever an issue, they take the lead and call the doctor's office to make sure everything is always correct. It's a great group of people that are always kind and helpful. Easy and quick!”
“I’ve been working with Mighty Pacific for the past 7 years now. They were my 3 shops secondary vendor. They mainly supplied us with batteries. After trying 2 other vendor’s that were out of state as my primary vendor I decided to switch it over to Mighty. The out of state vendors always had shipping issues, or excuses on why parts wouldn’t show in a timely fashion. No market presence. I manage 5 quick lubes (now) and having the right oil filters in stock is critical to our success. Once Dave came on board with Mighty there was a huge increase in customer service and boots on the ground. I met with Dave and few times and he was able to give me a price point that would work for my 3 quick lubes (We opened up 2 since the meetings). I tested Mighty oil filters at the new shop we opened in 2018. Dave setup the whole inventory for us. Racks, shelves, tools and chemicals. Stocked it and everything. The Mighty filters are high quality and so is the local service. Dave, Corey and Shawn earned the 3 others stores business. Dave helped us convert our old part numbers and then helped us reduce our inventory levels. Mighty carry’s the right tool, brake parts, quick lube items and tire supplies. Shawn special ordered the window stickers we carry so we can order them directly from Mighty. I really appreciate the local boots on the ground and the high level of customer service. You call one of the 3 guy’s I mentioned above, and they will answer the call and get it done right the first time. Keep it up Dave, Corey, Shawn and the entire Mighty Pacific team. When we opened up the 5th store Dave was back at it again. Helping us build it from the ground up. A great partner indeed.”
“A very good selection of hardware, seasonal plants and helpful staff. Sadly they have reduced some fishing tackle but still have fresh bait and sell Washington Fishing licenses.”
“Ignasio was very knowledgeable and even helped find the part I needed. He demonstrated how I would need to adjust it once I got back home and installed it. They have many of the parts that the contractors used to build our house and this brand of part was not available elsewhere. They charged me exactly what I could get the part for on line. I was able to make sure with Ignacio’s help that it was the correct part I needed. I recommend SiteOne Landscape Supply without reservation.”
“Spent a lot of years in my dad's shop waiting to show him shat it was that I hoped to show him before he left. Grant's towing&automotive in Chehalis was just one of his many ways of offering his time and dedication to the things he enjoyed doing. A back story to the request I made today after reading this sign. Words of affirmation is one of my love languages, quality time, and acts of service. When asking if anyone was able to take my picture, Ryan kindly stepped outside to take this for me. I still have it in my mind that I'm here for a reason. While my plans to create my nonprofit assisting children in difficult places didn't pan out the way I had hoped, I continue striving to create success through my efforts in my own ways. Thanks everyone!”

“I went in looking for rope for a project I was working on. I had to worry about getting it before 8am. Home Depot was open at 6am and was happy to find out that even the employees are on top of everything. I was asked if I needed help finding anything and after 10 minutes of searching for myself I was able to find the section with some help of the employees. I have really been into Home Depot cause I don't work in any line of work that involves them but when I needed to find supplies for my project Home Depot always comes in clutch.”
“Attention Pro parkers at this Home Depot. To park like a pro, keep the ass of your vehicle outward so you can load it like a pro. Tip #1. Stop backing in. Tip #2. Stop pulling in and roll into the parking spot ahead. Pros are allowed to use the parking space behind you, that they can park the ass of their vehicle where it belongs and load like a Pro. I hope this Pro advice further helps you tap into your intellectual side and suit your needs to Park & Load like the Pros and not be a jerk and blame others for your nonsense. Have a Great Day everyone! BTW, this Home Depot on Andreesen is the best we go to. Our absoute Favorite. Sincerely Everyday Regulars.”

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.
