I come here because I always experience amazing customer/shop service (Jeff the mechanic is the…read moreman!) and Jeremy is one of the best salesmen I've met in the industry. His knowledge and personability are rare traits these days, and it's hard to find folks that will go the extra mile who genuinely care about getting you the right tools. We bought a wood splitter this weekend. We are really grateful that the owner held it for us all week! We have been excited to pick this up and we are stoked to keep supporting a local shop that sells quality equipment. There were two gentlemen working when we made the purchase, Jeremy and some other guy named James who I had never met before. They were a bit busy and we weren't in a rush, so we waited for things to simmer down after Jeremy rang us up so we could get a run-through of the equipment and load it up. Really no big deal to wait - I worked retail for years I know it can be hectic - but Mr. Jimbo didnt seem at all interested in actually helping when he could have sped things along. He literally just acted like we were "in the way" or we were some sort inconvenience. I came back in to ask a question about a pin for the hitch mount (Genuine safety inquiry, so a legit concern.) Dude just stood behind the counter sneering at us and snapped at Jeremy to, "Make it quick...." Um, we just spent nearly 3k on a machine, can you at least act like you work here or give a hoot about the customers? He apparently gave us dirty looks the entire time we were there, my husband pointed this out as we were leaving, so I'm not the only one who took note of his insolence. I will remain a loyal customer, but hopefully I can consult with everyone else who works there. Maybe James would be better off working at the DMV...Insufferable people seem to fit in well there.

I am extremely dissatisfied with this business. My husband dropped off our weed stringer yard…read moremachine for repair on April 13th. We were told due to it being the beginning of spring that it wouldn't be done for about 4 weeks. Which was understandable. However, here we sit on July 1st without our machine . My husband has been by on 3 separate occasions and keeps being told 2 weeks and then a week. He has also had to since go and purchase another machine due to the fact that we do landscaping part time and needed this for work. I'm sorry but this is unacceptable.It has been 2 and a half months and it still isn't done. I don't know what the issue is over there but we should be discounted on the price or compensated in some way. When my husband said something to the manager regarding the machine not being done in a timely fashion the manager was like well that's the price we quoted you. Yes it was but we were also told it would be 4 weeks not 10+ weeks. We definitely won't be doing business with this store again.

I rarely leave reviews, but my experience with Reliable Hardware and Steel was beyond disappointing…read morefrom start to finish. In February 2026, I came in and met with William about building custom standing marquee frames for my business. He drew up plans and told me they could make adjustable frames that would hold my marquee letters and numbers. After several days with no follow-up, I had to repeatedly call and leave messages before someone finally called back and apologized. I returned to the shop and William admitted he had forgotten about the project and had misplaced the original drawings. We went over everything again from scratch, and he even brought in another senior welder to discuss ideas and create a mock-up to make sure the final product would work correctly. I made it extremely clear that these frames were needed for booked events, including the Sonoma County Cheese Festival on March 21st. I was assured multiple times that the project would be completed in time. I was also told the work should only take a few hours plus material prep, so the pricing discussion sounded reasonable at first. At their request, I brought in my marquee numbers so they could properly mock up the frame and ensure everything fit correctly. After dropping them off, communication once again completely disappeared. I called multiple times trying to get updates and eventually stopped expecting responses because of how poorly communication had already gone. Over a month later, long after the deadline had passed and after I had already been forced to look for other solutions for my clients, they finally called me to come see the frame. The frame itself was rusty, had water inside it, and the quoted price ended up being around $1,150 for ONE frame -- far higher than what had originally been discussed. What upset me even more was the condition of my marquee numbers when they returned them. They were dropped off in excellent condition, freshly painted, and barely used. When I got them back, they were filthy, stained, covered in rust residue, and appeared to have been left sitting in water. The wooden bases were compromised and now require repairs and repainting before I can even rent them out again. As a small business owner, this cost me time, money, missed opportunities, and damage to equipment I worked hard to build. To make things worse, after I declined the frame because of the condition and pricing, the interaction became hostile. Instead of handling the situation professionally, I was told to "get the fuck out of my shop," followed by additional insults from management. The lack of communication, missed deadlines, poor care of customer property, and unprofessional behavior made this one of the worst business experiences I've had.

Robert called me back that day and came out and took care of the problem in less than 15 minutes. I invested probably 4 hours reading the manual, You-Tube videos on the subject and fiddling with my tractor... but decided in the end to call a professional. Robert's truck has a hoist, welding rig, generator, 30 gallons of grease and all manner of tools so that he can fix most any problem in the field. He's also got a shop in Penngrove where he can do major repair work. He fixes generators also if you have a generator on your remote site. He fixed my tractor and charged me "whatever you think is reasonable" - which was quite reasonable to me - but worth his time to come and take care of the MF30. (I have some tire work that I'll have him do later.)

I hauled the mower into the local saw service twice this spring. It still wouldn't mow for more than 90 seconds. Another go-to small engine shop in town wouldn't even look at it. After searching and searching online, before I broke down and spent another $5000 on a new mower, I heard about Bill's Lawnmower in Santa Rosa. A Yelp review said that shop was closed, but Bill was now operating a mobile service van called Mower Medic. Bill responded quickly to my call and addressed the problem with great expertise and persistence. I appreciated a mobile provider who could observe what was going wrong when I operated the equipment in my own field. It took a couple of trips to resolve the problem, which gave me the chance to understand Bill's exceptional business and customer service ethics and enjoy his entertaining delivery. He could be teaching classes in business school if he weren't busy repairing engines. Bill ultimately solved the problem completely and charged an extremely reasonable fee for his services. Save yourself time and trouble; call Mower Medic first.
