That is until I Google only to realize this is the main company behind Climate guard and Studio 41. For a better picture of what they do and who they are, look to reviews there.

Today my first visit to Henry Frerk & sons, was one of the best examples of genuinely friendly, extremely competent and efficient customer service that I had EVER experienced....from ANY type of supplier. Hands down, if you are looking for a great materials yard, particularly for all types of masonry or plaster work, do yourself a favor and make your masonry or plaster restoration project a WHOLE lot easier and better by going to see Elizabeth, Matt or one of the other great staff people there. Not only did Elizabeth seek out and carefully mix an extremely close match to my rare 90 year old grout, her knowledge of the "science" of mortar materials can be the difference between your masonry project last several years or multiple decades. Beyond the scientific expertise in coloration, application and adherence, Elizabeth provided detailed mixing and application instructions for my older lime-based mortar with additional and essential tips to achieve the best possible color and quality project. These instructions were invaluable to my tuckpointer who learned new tips as well from Elizabeth. She also requested the home address so they could keep a record of the grout color should a future owner need to match mortar in the future. What other supplier have you dealt with that would provide this kind of all-around, amazing service? In the world of big-box hardware stores where you can't find a salesperson, much less a knowledgeable expert, it's no surprise that this family-owned business have been in business since 1888. Yeah, that's not a typo. On top of all this, based upon other reviews apparently their prices are very competitive as well. Usually achieving two of the three pillars of a great business transaction (quality, price and service) is typically the best achievable outcome. It is extremely rare to get all three as you do here. Enuf said. Just go there and experience true customer service and value that is SO rare in today's hurried retail climate.

So I thought, "I'll just see what their Garden Area" looks like.... $278 later, I'm happy to give 5 stars! They had everything!!! The pottery section was so well stocked with a bunch of cool ceramic planters on sale. Gorgeous annuals and perennials!! I scored a massive fern as well as pots of lush perennials to add to my little garden. The staff were the best part! This was Friday night after I'm sure everyone has had a long day, yet each person went out of their way to greet me and ask if they could help me find anything! Check out lady was lovely, too. This might become a weekly Friday night mid-commute stop for me. Oh, plenty of parking. The lot wasn't crowded at all.

After speaking to manager Miguel , he told me he would not honor the price , I was shocked , because this has happen before at this Menards , and the price was honered and price was changed . Miguel did not want to hear what I was saying, and he clearly saw the price on the weed killer ... so I took all my items back and returned them , because I felt discriminated against , and told myself I would not shop at Menards again.

Not sure why I've been so loyal to home depot since moving to Chicago a few years back, but in general I do find Menard's prices to be slightly cheaper than home depot. Another point worth mentioning is their propane refills/exchange are only $15. By far the cheapest I've seen in the Lincoln Park area. 'Save big money at...' You know how it goes.
