Needed a few 6ft ladders in the last minute and they came through for me big time.Thank you guys.Great store.

Just a thank you for the great experience working with Christine Daniels, design consultant. We worked together to create a terrific package for shades for my new apartment. She kept me informed as we progressed through the path which included back delay on one of my shades. The finished product was exceptional including the spot on measuring and the wonderful installation process. Thanks to all involved. read more

A few years ago I ordered some new blinds from Kathleen. Kathleen was so helpful and guided me through the whole process. The man she sent to measure and install is a perfectionist and a really nice person. Really knows his craft. The blinds came when promised. They were perfect and look great. Kathleen is a real pro. I was so impressed I went back today and ordered another blind from her. I'm sure it will be another great experience. read more

I'm indifferent about this location. I used to purchase from the Janovic on 7th Ave, but after they had a mishap and had to close the store I went to this third Avenue store. I asked if they could match the same price as 7th Avenue, which was a $4 difference and the Indian man and black woman behind the counter made it seem like it was a big deal and they're not able to match the price because they could lose their jobs. The total was 48 with tax and the women said, you want me to pay the $8 for you. She was condescending and made me out to be a cheapskate. I didn't care about the money, it's the principal that I got one piece and expect the same price and service no matter which of their stores I'm in. Customer service could definitely be better, and they work like snails. Can't wait for the 7th ave store to reopen. Everyone there is friendly and doubt talk down to you. read more

We were visiting from out of town and this is the only place that would allow my children to use the restroom. MARNIE IS THE BEST ASSISTANT MANAGER EVER. We even offered to buy something we didn't need because we were so greatful. You just don't find kindness like that anymore. She is a GEM. Thank you, The Neil's read more

Indont go anywhere else for my paint. Marnie is super helpful and knowledgeable and most importantly loves what she does.

I always a have amazing shopping experience at the Gramercy Janovic. I have to say the team is very knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you Marnie and Shawn! read more

Janovic - Home Decor Near Me - New York, New York

I have been shopping at Janovic / Benjamin Moore since 1999, almost 20 years! I have to say I love how the store is always changing displays and mixing it up and keeping it fresh. More then anything I love the help I get from the staff. Marnie in particular is always a joy to work with. She is equally pleasant, fun, and efficient. She gets that as a designer I'm usually in a rush and very specific about my needs. She always goes above and beyond to listen, help and to be creative! The true test of customer service is not when things are perfect but when things go wrong. While things going wrong with Janovic is rare, when a couple times there was a mistake or a mis-tint on a color Marnie bends over backwards to make it right, and make it fast! She along with the entire team really is the glue that keeps me coming back as a happy customer. read more

I bought Hunter Douglas blinds here a little over 2 years ago and at first was very impressed with them. However it only took about a month to start having issues with the blinds not working. In the first instance the remote control needed to be replaced. Subsequent visits (probably about 4 or 5 at time of writing) they needed to be reset. Currently due to the Covid situation one blind (which covers 2 windows) has been permanently down since March. I tried to see about having it fixed now that things are opening up and was referred from here to a guy in the 7th avenue store who- after just calling him back - said he was too busy to look into it right now. Honestly I would not recommend these blinds to anyone and realize a smarter decision would have been to select the manual blinds at time of purchase. So now I am having to contact head office to see if they can do anything about this. At this point I want them replaced with something that works! Note I removed my initial review after my experience with this company and their products went downhill swiftly following installation read more

Janovic is very organized, has a great selection and the people are helpful. Itt's also very helpful that the have in stock the most popular Benjamin Moore off-white colors. There is one thing that bugs me and that is if you are a contractor or show them a union card, they charge you considerably less for the paint than if you are a regular consumer. This is regardless of the quantity. One time I purchased several hundreds of dollars of paint only to be told by the contractor that they charge him less. This makes the consumer feel bad. If I'm getting this wrong, the manager here can message me and let me know. read more

Absolutely enjoyed the experience at Janovic Paint Place in the Bronx. Henry was extremely patient and knowable; he took his time explaining the best way to select colors. He asked all the right questions and made us feel comfortable. We are so excited to use our MB paint!! This place ROCKS!! Need paint and good advice, come to this place. read more

I decided to repaint my baby's room and while I never really held a paint brush before, I decided that this might be the weekend to do it and went in to Janovic (recommended by my superintendent) yesterday to get some paint and supplies. Not only did a get excellent customer care but also great suggestions and answers on my many questions. 5 stars! read more

I came in looking for paint colors for my kitchen and Marni guided me to the two colors that perfectly complimented each other. She was honest with me when I asked her opinion and her recommendations were spot on. She really knows color. Then Kathleen helped me with a window treatment that will work with my new colors. Can't wait to have them come and get my measurements. I am so lucky to have all of these super friendly and knowledgeable folks within walking distance to my apartment. Can't wait to plan the next home improvement. read more

Marnie and Kathleen are the best. They have both been really helpful while I was redecorating. Not only do they have great taste and style but they were very friendly and always willing to help. Marnie is a color genius and picked the perfect shade of grey. I tried about 5 shades prior and got it right on the first try. Kathleen is very accommodating and responsive. read more

The new manager of this store, Gordon, is the WORST. He is rude and unhelpful. The nice people the other 2 people are referring to were let go in the past couple of weeks for some reason. He has given me nothing but attitude on 2 separate occasions. I came in with a quart they made to match the hundreds of dollars worth of paint i bought at the store. It wasn't close to a match to the original color. He said he didn't know when i bought it (its on the can and in the computer system) and didn't know who mixed it so it wasn't his problem. TERRIBLE SERVICE. read more

Marnie is a godsend. A literal godsend. While redoing my apartment, I was in the Janovic store daily, if not more than once a day. Marnie was knowledgable and helpful - be it suggesting tools that I had not even realized I would need, or pointing out a paint color that would look great. She (and the rest of her team) were always efficient, helpful, and so friendly. If you're looking for great service and great quality paints, look no further... read more

A great help with friend service. I could not ask for more from my local hardware store.

This is the worst paint store ever. I walked in and asked for a specific paint that I know they carry. I spelled it out - he told me he'd never heard of it before. I realized it must have been a language barrier so I searched for it on my phone and found it. Without apologizing he brought me over to the paint. I didn't have my glasses with me and asked if I needed anything special. He told me it was a latex based paint and to clean the brush with soap and water and said I can use it with any brush. I asked him was he sure and he said yes. It was an oil based paint which need to be used in a well ventilated area and cleaned with mineral spirits and the brush he sold me kept losing the bristles as I painted. Ugh! DO NOT GO TO THIS STORE IF YOU NEED ANY INFORMATION. Go to the store on 4th Ave and 11th st read more

Re: Janovic Paint & Decorating Center / Benjamin Moore Paints speciality at 292 Third Avenue (22/23) in Gramercy, New York, NY 10003 This used to be, about five or years ago, a decent business to go for quality paint, advice, professionalism, and friendly help. We spent hundreds of dollars there back then, and clearly we now feel betrayed. In our present day returns in 2014 and 2015, everything has changed for the worse. Our experience there has been a horror. We don't understand what has happened. The staff absolutely DO NOT want to assist the customers. They laugh at you, even, and disappear. They say they will "be right with you", and never come. We are not exaggerating. They push you to read the pamphlets, choose your own path and colors, give no advice on the diverse, speciality Benjamin Moore paints, and state adamantly that they have no opinion. They offer absolutely zero assistance. We can't believe that this was once a prideful Benjamin Moore paint outlet. We were so angry with our last visits to seek guidance and make purchases for our new residences, (last and last visit in March 2015) that we left disappointed, frustrated, and outraged. We vowed and refused to ever return. This is an opportunity for another quality paint manufacturer to move in and show what excellence, sustainability, longevity, brand stature, and loyalty to customers and consumers means. They have lost our business. We advise that one avoids this location like the plague unless the company takes a hard look at what their employees are doing and not doing, show some accountability, and prove that they want our business!! It was almost as if the staff didn't want us to buy anything. And they got their wish, we didn't buy anything. Save your money, your time, and your honor. read more

Bad customer service at the Gramercy store and bad service over the phone. Actually, no customer service over the phone at their main number. The salesman at the Gramercy location is MIA and there's no one else that can help with the blinds or shades. How do they stay in business? read more

These people are great at their jobs. This staff is knowledgeable and patient, and offered personalized recommendations for my project that took into account my personal style and budget. They understand that picking paint colors is confusing and overwhelming, and break it down to a simple set of guidelines. I got great advice and recommendations that answered all of my questions. They are true experts in the industry. read more

Marnie helped me SO much when I needed to choose paint colors for my house in Long Island. Wanting to paint all the rooms (except for the bedroom) different shades of grey, I was obsessively agonizing over the choices. Most of the grey colors had undertones of other colors: red, blue, green, brown. I was really going crazy, and not able to make good decisions! Marnie said to me: This is what you're going to do--and proceeded to choose the perfect variation of grey colors for the kitchen, living room/dining room/hallway, guest room and bathroom--each a pure grey color that worked so well in each space. She even chose the absolute perfect smokey purple color that I was wanting for the master bedroom. Choosing the just-right paint color is always a challenge, but it doesn't need to be with the help of lovely Marnie! read more

Everyone there was super helpful and made my experience really easy and fun. I was so pleased with the help and advice from Ally and Shawn especially. I'll always go back to this location for any of my paining needs. read more

Excellent store. I've been buying paint there for many years. When the size I wanted wasn't available they mixed it for me. Extremely polite and knowledgeable staff. Great to have it in the neighborhood. read more

Stood around for 30 minutes before I could get the attention of any of the two whole people "working." When I finally managed to catch someone's attention and asked a few questions about paint and colors, they offered zero help and just pointed to the selection while starting a conversation with someone else. Thanks, dude. Had to stand there for another 15 minutes until that conversation was done, at which point the man glanced at me and then just disappeared into the back for a while. After he finally reappeared, I had to again wait for him to acknowledge me before I finally ordered a couple of samples of paint. Cherry on top is that he rings me up and then proceeds to help other customers while I just stand there waiting for my samples to be made. Another 20 minutes of waiting for him to stop talking to other people and to just freaking give me what I had already paid for half an hour ago. If not for the fact that paint cans aren't the lightest and that not too many places sell Benjamin Moore paint, I would totally go somewhere else if I could. Too bad almost all the other stores that carry it are probably also affiliated with Janovic... It pisses me off that I'm giving money to these people for such poor customer service. Total time in this store was over an hour just to get some paint samples. By the time I was leaving, the store was closing so my original plan of getting paint samples on the way home from work, painting some swatches, and then picking up paint to start that evening had to be scrapped. Wasted evening. Wasted time. Painting sucks enough as it is, glad I get to have even more fun in the process. *sarcasm* read more

We had a positive experience with this store. We ordered several different window treatments and they all worked out/fit very well. Jesus came out and measured and Kathleen was our extremely helpful and patient salesperson. You can tell she really cares about her clients, which was very refreshing. Also, pricing was reasonable and the product was of high quality. We plan on using this store for our future orders. read more

Great Service! I have been in and out of this Janovic for the last month or so. I needed help choosing colors. I found the staff to be terrific. They were always pleasant, knowledgeable and willing to help in any way possible. The manager Shawn is outstanding. Shawn worked with me in selecting the right colors. I also spoke to him several times on the phone. He always took the call. The delivery came right on time. After trying a sample of one of the paint colors in my kitchen, I realized it was too light. Since it was a paint with a formula, I knew they would not take it back. But Shawn who is a great mixologist, told me to bring the paint over and he would darken it. He did! And it looks great! read more

I am moving into a new apartment and wanted to paint my bedroom and living room different shades of grey. I had no idea on where to start since there are so many grey options and I did not want one that looked blue or green in different lighting. I went into Janovic with a color I liked for my bedroom, but thought it was too dark for my living room. Lenny was a HUGE help. He suggested we lighten the color and see how it looks. I spent about an hour there testing it with his help and another woman employee (I did not get her name). I will continue to go to this paint store even if I move out of Gramercy! read more

So incredibly unorganized with extremely poor customer service. Failed to deliver the right curtains, postponing for months on end with no reliable contact. Stuck home multiple times waiting for no-show deliveries. read more

I love this store! Shawn knows everything there is to know about paint and so is his wonderful staff. Ally helped me so much. He is knowledgeable and such a nice person. I was so happy to see Ally in the store. I know him for many years when he worked at Vercesi on 23rd street. He knows so much about paint, home decor, and blinds. read more

Be careful when you purchase blinds here. My wife went to Janovic to purchase a set of blackout shades for our baby's room and was upsold by Tabatha with the assurance that the Hunter Douglas Duets were a far superior product which she used in her own kids rooms. The Duets were 5 times more expensive ($1,500), but Otis came out to our apartment to measure for the Duets and reiterated that this was the proper product for our window. When the Duets were installed, there was a 1 1/2 inch gap between the Duet and the window frame which let in way too much light. We called customer service who sent out the head installer. The head installer insisted that the Duets were properly installed and the problem was with the type of window we had. We called Bill Hudgins, the head of customer service, who reviewed our file and said he would call back to discuss some resolution. After a week, he still had not called back. When I called him, he said there was nothing he was willing to do. Janivoc's employees knowingly sold us a very expensive product that they knew would not work for our window and is now refusing to work with us in any way. They have been rude and unresponsive in dealing with us. I would not recommend them to anyone. read more
