Best and cutest hardware store on the gulf coast! Always greeted with a smile when I arrive. It's a…read morefamily owned small business with impeccable customer service. Not only do they have everything for your garden, building supplies, home renovation and repair, etc. etc. but they also have lumber, paint, and candles, hats, and other fun little things you won't find anywhere else. Their prices are also MUCH cheaper than Lowe's or Home Depot plus you're supporting a small business so win-win. It's a little hidden gem of a hardware store but definitely worth the trip if you'd like to get out of the city, go for a drive, see some cows, horses, old barns, and abandoned rail cars along the way.

I'm new to the area and my neighbors told me to go here because they have everything at probably…read morejust the same prices as Home Depot or Lowe's but way better service. I went for something simple like little pavers and southern hospitality was in full effect. I'm a city person, and it was just great to be welcomed with southern hospitality. They had everything I needed as I browsed so I'm very happy... you should go there

The GOOD - when you walk in the door the folks say hello and greet you with welcome warmth and…read morekindness... And then... The BAD - you walk in to the sporting goods side and the guy behind the counter gives you a look of disgust for daring to come in. He does ask if he can help you - though it's clear that is the last thing he really wants to do. I've been in twice - same guy, same attitude. It's a shame that all the great things the folks in the front hardware side do get cancelled out with what you remember - this guy treating you an unwelcome and unwanted visitor.

My advice to everyone is stay out of that back room because you'll be like a kid in a candy store and "accidentally" go over your budget. Very happy with their knowledge and their products. The kindness they showed to an elderly customer almost had me in tears. Please stop in and support this business.

Oh my goodness, where do I start? Old style Ace Hardware with knowledgeable and friendly staff…read more Been going here for over 40 years or more so it seems, used to come here for anti-fouling paint for Stauter boat with Grandaddy as a kid. I have been redoing the bathroom on Lil Pugs side of house and had a leaking faucet, replaced cartridges and still leaks. Made the trip to Wigman's and talked with the fella about it, he schooled me on spring/seal behind cartridges. He set me up with what I needed and instructions on how to install, a simple procedure I am sure everyone knows but me (I am more auto repair than home repair). Followed his steps and leak gone in less than 10 minutes, no telling what drama and expense he saved me. Every trip here is the same, it starts with a "what can I do to help" and ends with a reasonably priced purchase of ONLY what I need, and tips and pointers on how to do it. They didn't have the handle I needed but it is an older and unusual item, (who breaks a shower handle?) and they do often have those type items. If you need a REAL hardware store, you can't beat Wigman's. Prices are in line with big box, help yourself 'cause employee is former fry cook at local burger joint stores. Support this local business as they will offer you help and knowledge, something people seem to have lost a value in.

Also found some of their prices cheaper than the big box brands. They make you feel like family. Let's talk about the quality of products and items they sell.

Ace tends to have among the best customer service of any of the hardware type stores I've experienced. The folks working at most Ace locations actually seem cheerful and happy to help you find something or give suggestions on the best items for certain projects. The staff are also good about reminding you about available discounts and other money saving options. The experience at most Ace locations is far better than what you typically get at Lowes, Home Depot or Walmart.
