The very young but friendly and knowledgeable clerk explained the different kinds of paint and what we would need for our purpose. It didn't take too long to mix the paints, and we were in and out within half an hour. I imagine most of the customers are professionals. It is not a very big store but it's convenient and closer than the bigger hardware store.

The store is excellently stocked and a store employee by the name of "Lance" is both professional and knowledgeable. As a Jehovah's Witness, I believe in giving sincere commendation, when it is due.

Painted right over nail marks, Some of the issues were roller marks on the walls and not smoothed out a nothing was really finished. Also he added to the job and painted on the back side of my TV, windows frames. I know they have lots of good reviews but NOT really finished like a professional contractor should. Real cheep job. Luis would not come back to the home because he said he was afraid of us. All we did was call and call and text. Luis thought we were being sneaky since my husband was upset and called him on his phone, Luis was afraid for this. I could have a police officer come by and make sure Luis was safe in my home, but Luis had his worker do a quick job get the money and gone. I have a disability and when I went to see the room after it was done, I did not see anything because of my ADA I have vision issues. I feel sorry for someone that they do something for. PLEASE RECHECK EVERY BIT BEFORE YOU HAD OVER THAT CHECK, he did offer to come back a couple of times but he was scared and never showed up. Look at some of my pictures of the walls they painted, finished look, this was after they did the job.

They Never Finished the job, we had to hire another crew to correct it after this contractor.read more
