Please go by this "valid" review and not the ones the owner posted himself. At first we thought wow…read morehe is so knowledgeable and can do all we asked. Said it would take one week. We actually chose him over a slightly lower quote because of the above. We gave down payment and when he started project he asked for more $ and b/c down payment was not half of quote we agreed. He continued to ask for more $ many times- even after was told not until it is complete- he would call 4+ times a day to ask for more $. Project took more than 3 weeks and was not done to satisfaction. He said he could do stucco repair- but did a lousy job- could not texture and now does not match the rest of house stucco. Also did not cover or tape anything so paint is splattered everywhere- never cleaned it up. Too much to mention- do not use- save yourself the headache and money.

Great local hardware store, worth driving a little longer to access. The staff has always been…read morefriendly and helpful, they know their stock, and provide service for either loading your car or delivering. First found them when they were a Tru Value, now they're an Ace but the team remains the same. We just bought a battery-powered snowblower from them. Though they were out of stock when we visited, Sam told us about the orders he had in and roughly when to expect ours. We put our name on the waitlist, and got a call within a week of his estimated delivery. They were able to assemble and deliver it the same day, and it now sits in our garage pending the next plowable snow. Truly exceptional service, and we will be letting our neighbors know!

This is an update to my previous review on our Pella sunroom window/door fiasco. We paid Lowes…read moreagain to replace the same sliding patio door with one going in the correct direction. They gave us a $600 credit towards that door for getting our $5000 order 100% wrong. We waited another couple months, paid our contractor to take out the wrong door which we have to sell ourselves to recoop the money and install the door that Lowes delivered. The contractor had difficulty with the door installation and told us (once it was installed) that it was definitely not the same quality door that we had paid for originally. Also, the door would not close enough to lock. I believe the handle screw holes where not placed correctly. Once again, back to Lowes. Had to prove to them that they sent us a low quality door to replace the high end one that we had paid for.... twice! Their response, we'll send something to make the handle lock. We certainly can't afford to buy another door. We definitely can't afford $1500 for the contractor to swap out another door. This is a nightmare. We asked for the cash difference between the original door and the low quality replacement that we received and also asked that they send their own installer to change the handle so we have a locking door. We'll never get the high quality door we ordered and paid for. It appears that Lowes is not willing pay us back the difference in what we paid for and what we now have installed. Could they have intentionally sent us a low quality door because of the $600 credit they applied for screwing up our entire window/door order? I'm starting to think so. Still waiting for their solution.........
