I have always used this shop for shopping for paints for my home in the last 10 years. The price…read morewas reasonable. Recently, I went there to buy a quarter paint to paint some spots on my interior wall, and the shop charged me $37! This is a crazy price! Later, I went to Home Depot, and the quarter paint only costs $14. You can't justify a threefold price by any excuse. I will no longer buy paints from this shop; it is a total rip-off in the name of inflation.

Yes, you'll pay more for their paint than you would at say, Home Depot but it is so worth it…read more Don't believe me? Then try it for yourself! Go to Home Depot and show the guy behing the paint counter a swatch of your granite countertop and ask him what color he would recommend considering you have cherry cabinetry. Then, when he's done laughing at you, go to Waters & Brown and show your granite swatch to Sam and Lauren (I think her name is.) That's what I did and they immediately both thought of the same color, Quahog. So much darker than I ever wanted to go but wow, just the right color. Then Sam suggested Oxygen (a pale blue) for the ceiling and a color called America's Cup for the trim. The America's Cup (an off white) threw my husband into fits of worry. Will it be too yellow? Will it look dirty and dingy? Sam, promised it wouldn't and explained why . . . and he was right. So right, that my husband went back and asked him what color we should paint the adjoining hall, Sam made a recommendation and my husband walked out with that color paint. This is the same husband who would gladly spend months deliberating every decision, no matter how minute!!! So it is no exaggeration when I say that Sam may have single-handedly saved my marriage, or perhaps my husband's life because I was ready to either kill or divorce him. So as we decorate our entire home over, all I can say is thank God for Waters and Brown, and thank God for Sam!!!!

In particular, the girl working the paint section of the store was very knowledgeable and was more than happy to answer any questions I had about paint, primer and best painting practices.

I found the prices to be a bit higher than Lowe's/Home Depot but to me the service more than made up for the couple dollars I would have saved. I will be back.

Everything was going well until the person supposedly helping me make it clear that she had little/no understanding of the math necessary to measure the area of a wall. At one point I swear she was just punching random numbers into her calculator, then came up with a number that was about 40% over what it should have been. She didn't know her product lines, was patronizing, and just gave off the attitude that being there somehow interrupted whatever is was that she does when not helping people on the sales floor. At that point I determined that taking my business elsewhere was probably the best course of action. They didn't seem too fazed about that - I suppose it happens frequently.
