    This store is pretty awesome! It is like a Home Depot. It is very clean and organized. I really liked how they had the different tool brands very color coordinated! And throughout the store they had some pretty cool items! I also liked the old country design inside and out, it kind of reminded me of knots The only downside was the customer service at the register. My boyfriend was trying to buy a electric hand tool that had a big sign that said $99 and at the register it rang up $199. We let her know the sale price and she asked us oh was it a Friday frenzy? And I had never been to that store and I was confused and so my first thought was that they were already tagging sale prices for the time for the next day and I asked if she can honor the price and was a bit hesitant to call a manager so instead we just decided to not take the item. I would have liked if she would've better explained the way that sale worked instead of asking us the customer but now I know for next time I go to Check what day the sales are for. The item that I wanted was a Friday frenzy at that time and now it's Friday sale is an everyday sale!

    Excellent advice and products. Especially the paint department and stocking General Finishes.

    Disappointed with a Service (ISRAEL VAZQUEZ-COR). I spent thousands of dollars this summer having my outdoor patio build. All material from Ganahl lumber. I decided to go in myself and purchase one of the last items (Gabel plate) I wanted. It's true when they say, it's hard to find good help. As Israel brought out the book or manual he couldn't answer any of my question. I specifically told him, I wanted it for a 4 x 4 and he still got it wrong. I called back to try and order the right part and was told by him it would be a 25% restocking fee. So anyone reading this, if you special ordered a part and it's wrong one it's a 25% restocking fee. I felt he initially didn't want to help me out and on top of that he ordered the wrong part. In a way it worked out, I upgrade the 4 x 4 and they put a 6 x 6 for me. Just do your research or have the contractor buy everything!

    the Handsome one is me, Louis from Ganahl is on the right.  #markhill #tustin

    I haven't shopped much at Ganahl Lumber over the years cause I looked at this as a contractors store. Recently during a remodel of our home, we were searching for glass panel doors and Ganahl Lumber was recommended to us. How pleasantly was I surprised!!! Not only do they have a very large section of lumber, they also have everything you would need for a remodel, especially some items that would be a special order at other large box chain stores. Louis Avila in the Door department made shopping very easy. although I didn't know all the terms, he understood the application and the additional parts I would need for the installation. Here's the best part... I ordered on a Monday, and the doors were in the very next day. Everyone was very friendly, extremely knowledgeable and patient.

    Picking up more lumber!

It's not as busy as the Tyler location and the return process was easy and efficient. Staff greeted us when we entered and helped us with our return within minutes. I also had some free time to look for garden power tools. We looked at their lithium battery powered lawn mower and shrub cutter. They have quite a selection to choose from. At this location they also have wooden and metal tool boxes for your garage. I found a cute mini wooden tool box that was nice and I'll probably gift it to someone. I am still starting my collection of tools so don't need it know. They also have moving blankets, batteries, security lights, and something new to me exterior solar panels. Overall good visit. Clean interior and everything was organized and had prices on them. They even have a membership that you can join for even more savings!

None were in-stock. -_- The cashier told me I could "preorder" them, so that when they came in-stock, they'd be set aside for me. She said she didn't know how to do it though. -_- They were closing in 20 minutes. The Sales Manager came over to handle my preorder. He flipped around a binder for a good 5 minutes, and finally said "OK...I found the code to order the purple tool chest for you." Me: "I said I wanted 6...and I wanted WHITE." Him: "Oh. Hold on..." and started flipping again. -_- I said "I'm not in a big hurry for them, so how about you get the preorder all ready to process tomorrow...then call me & I'll come back to finalize the preorder." Him: "Oh, that'd be AWESOME. Thank you." I gave him my full name, phone number, and e-mail...and he wrote down exactly what I wanted. That was 2 days ago. -_- Yesterday, I waited until 3pm...and called back myself. The Sales Manager wasn't there - he was on his lunch break. I gave my name, phone & the subject to the guy that I was talking to & he said the Sales Manager would call me back as soon as he returned from his lunch break. No call. Today, I waited until 1pm, and called. Lady says the Sales Manager is off today. The lady I spoke to said "why don't you just come in & buy what you want? We don't do special orders." -_- Me: "...because as of Wednesday, you don't have them in-stock." Her: "Oh, then you'll need to pre-order them." Me: "THATS WHAT I HAVE BEEN TRYINB TO DO FOR 3 DAYS! Do YOU know how to do it, if I come today?" Her: "The Sales Manager can help with that." Me: "...but you said he's not working today." Her: "Right. You'll have to come some other time." -_- I'm going some other differently-badged Chinese items from Amazon...and I told her that. Her: "OK, great." -_-

    I ran into a major issue with a closet project. I ordered a closet system and paid a contractor to…read morepick it up and build it. Halfway through the assembly, we realized we were missing half of the items. When we called the store, they couldn't locate the missing parts, and they were completely out of stock when we tried to reorder. I was left with an incomplete closet, had to disassemble what the contractor put together, haul it back to the store myself, and was still stuck with a $200 bill for the contractor's time. I was ready to take my business elsewhere. However, an employee named Munabi completely turned my experience around. She was patient and went above and beyond to help me. The original system I bought was $380, and the replacement upgrade I needed was over $600. Munabi advocated for me, made several calls and worked with her manager, and secured a price match so I got the upgraded system for the same price as my original purchase. While the initial problem was a significant headache, Munabi's dedication and customer service made all the difference. Employees like her are the reason I'm sticking around--she turned a bad situation into a great outcome and made me feel valued as a customer. You just don't get good customer service like this anymore and I'm glad to see there's young people like this that are still willing to have pride in what they do. Well done, she will go far in life.

Since I had not made an advance reservation, the Pro Desk suggested that I check with the Tool Rental department. As soon as I arrived, I was warmly greeted by a gentleman named Allen. He asked a few routine questions, including whether I had reserved a truck in advance, and then personally took the time to walk all the way to the parking lot to check the availability. He returned with a smile and happily informed me that there was a flatbed truck available. Since I had never rented a truck from this location before, he politely requested my ID and completed the verification process, which I completely understood and appreciated. He also humbly asked whether I had anything to secure the load. When I told him I did not, he kindly showed me where I could purchase tie-down straps. Throughout our conversation, Allen explained everything clearly, including the rental rates, timing, and insurance options. He was courteous, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely humble. Within just a few minutes, he completed the paperwork, inspected the truck with me, thoroughly explained the rental process, and handed me the keys. I have rented vehicles from many places over the years, but I have rarely encountered someone with the professionalism and outstanding customer service that Allen demonstrated. His positive attitude and willingness to go above and beyond made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. Home Depot should be proud to have an employee like Allen. His leadership qualities, knowledge, and dedication to helping customers truly stand out. Please pass along my sincere appreciation to his manager. Employees like Allen are the reason customers keep coming back, and I believe he deserves recognition and consideration for future leadership opportunities. Thanks Allen.

I am not a professional so when it comes to home improvements that are easy, I come here to buy some tools and also talk to staff on getting their input on my home projects. I like coming here because it isn't as intimidating as Home Deport where they have a larger store and tons of items to look through. Here, it is small enough and easy enough for me to shop and find my own goodies. The store stocks a wide variety of top items like automotive tools, power tools, welding gear, generators, and hand tool sets -- all at competitive prices that help you save on projects big and small. The staff I interacted with were friendly and offered helpful suggestions when I had questions about specific tools and which ones to use for my home improvement project which made shopping easier. Inventory can be different from various Harbor Freight locations, so it is good to call ahead of time if you know exactly which tool you are looking for. It also helps when they have some good deals on the weekends. Last week it was a free item with purchase and this week it's a free bucket also with a purchase. Overall, good experience. If you register your phone number with them, they will record your purchase with your nunber so if you don't have your receipt for a return, they can look it up based on your phone number.
