**Update 8/17/26:** I have since learned additional information that I believe is important for…read moreanyone purchasing paint here, particularly for touch-ups. When I originally returned to Ace with the matching problem, Matt's brother repeatedly treated the "Rev" date on my paint label as though it were the date I purchased the paint and characterized the paint as being more than two years old. I have since spoken with Benjamin Moore and learned that the "Rev" date refers to a revision of the paint formula, not the purchase date. My container separately stated that the paint had been mixed on 3/28/25. That distinction matters. When I originally came to the paint counter for additional paint, I brought a photograph of my old paint can and label specifically because I needed paint for touch-ups, and I was told the new paint would match. No one explained that the formula had been revised or asked when my walls had originally been painted. Had I been told, "This formula has changed since your original paint was mixed, so it may not blend properly for touch-ups," I would never have used it throughout my home. The touch-ups did not blend. The differences involved not only color, but also sheen and flashing. I now have to repaint entire walls, corner to corner, wherever the touch-up paint was applied. I have since gone to another local Benjamin Moore retailer for help correcting the problem. They explained that formula changes, sheen differences, flashing, and other variables can create exactly these kinds of touch-up problems. My advice to consumers is simple: **if you are buying paint for touch-ups, do not assume that bringing in the old paint label means the newly mixed paint will match. Ask specifically whether the formula has been revised since your original paint was made, and whether the new paint is appropriate for touching up your existing walls.** What remains most disappointing to me is that this issue was not meaningfully investigated when I returned to the store. Instead, we were repeatedly questioned about whether we had mixed or applied the paint correctly and told the store could not verify that the paint on my wall was actually the paint they had sold me. I have been a customer since 2019. This experience has changed where I will purchase paint in the future.

I just had Kameron, the owner's son, come to my house, remove my old corroded, Window Screens and brought back my brand new ones and installed them! It was great service and so reasonably priced. I highly highly highly recommend you check Ace Hardware in Port Hueneme for replacement Window Screens. It was an excellent experience. I'll be going there for all of my Hardware needs in the future. (I didn't want to remove and install myself, so paid a small service charge for this personal service)

The city of Santa Paula is beyond lucky to have a hardware store!…read more I think the outside of the store is misleading as it may seem a very small store. But, it's actually quite large inside! I come in here often; have had keys made, bought some yard signs and locks that were needed. And, huge huge shout out to one of their employees a few months ago. Wish I had gotten his name! I came in as my keyfob remote had crapped out. There was a young man who went over and above to try to help me figure out the issue! He came outside to my car with me, had some technical electrical thing that he used to try to help determine if my car was "reading" the fob or not. We even checked a new battery just in case. Come to find out, it didn't need a new battery: my keyfob no longer works in my 15 year old car. :( But big thanks to the employee who helped me *finally determine it was not a battery issue. Staff is pretty good which is so nice to experience. Of course, during the covid, they all have masks on. I didn't notice if they offered sanitizer at the front door, but they do have a "one way door IN and another door OUT", which is per usual at most businesses now it seems. I just recently found out that they carry Ginger Chews. Who would have known!? I would recommend this Ace Hardware and I know that Santa Paula could sure use the support, too.

When you're done with the wood, someone is usually watching you and they know when you're done usually. Or you can just let them know you're done and you want your form with the wood you got counted.
