I recently visited the store (Evergreen Park, Illinois) in order select paint for a basement. My…read moregoal was to select ceiling paint, wall paint and baseboard paint. I was serviced by Anthony who was very personable, patient and knowledgeable about products and the paint palettes. My situation was very tricky because one portion of the basement has blacked out ceilings and the other has a standard white drywall ceiling. It was important that the correct hue of gray was picked to ensure that the space remained welcoming and not industrial. Anthony educated me on warm hues vs. cool hues as well as which hues gave off green, blue or purple. I've shopped at this location for over 10 years and I've never encountered an associate this knowledgeable about his craft. I look forward to visiting this store for all of my paint projects.

Everyone wants to "know a guy in the business", and I'm going to give you the skinny on mine. Actually, all the employees at Calumet in Oak Forest are top notch, but if you have any paint related questions whatsoever, ask for Tony. He'll probably be in the back working on inventory, ordering new merchandise, or just taking a nap...I really never know, since after all, he's in the back. But he's sure to help when beckoned, so don't hesitate to ask for him by name. He gets that all the time. This is one of the only businesses I know of that carries other brands of paint along with the Benjamin Moore brand. Most of the others tend to have signed an exclusivity clause with BM, which means you're pretty much stuck with what they're giving you. Myself, I like a choice. So if you want your own guy in the painting industry, go to Calumet, ask for Tony and walk out with exactly what you need to get your project done right. The peace of mind you'll get will come at no extra charge.
