I placed a quick call to Rollier's and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. They let me know that they had some watercolor crayons and that they would hold them for me at the front desk. I popped over and ended up buying a plethora of fun craft items. The staff were personable throughout my interactions with them. If you need hardware, or homeware, or craft supplies, or cooking supplies, or basic food items, and so much more - they have it here. The store is well organized and you can tell that the staff take genuine delight in assisting their customers. I was even more impressed with this store when I learned that it has been in this location for over 70 years and was even around before then - at a different location - https://www.doitbest.com/rolliers-hardware/about-us/ . So what's up! They even host some fantastic community events - https://www.doitbest.com/rolliers-hardware/special-events . If you are in the area and need some basic household items, decorations, or just want to do some magical browsing - be sure to support a legacy family-owned local business and check out Rollier's. My nieces were entertained for hours - thanks to Rollier's lovely diverse selection of goods. Trust.

Luckily, my guess was on the money. My visit to Master's Hardware was friendly, efficient, and informative. Unlike some hardware stores, where you're left to fend for yourself, Master's Hardware helps you pick up everything you need in a very non-salesy, unobtrusive way. For nails, wall anchors, lighting pull-chain extensions, and all your other little moving needs, Master's will do the trick. Not sure about bigger projects, so you might want to call ahead if you're planning serious renovations or, I don't know, demolition. If you're clueless like me, this is the place to go.

There have been…read moremany times where I'm looking for just one small item, a screw or washer and these two guys have exactly what I'm looking for at a very fair price.

The friend mentioned Salik's and said, while it doesn't have everything, they have enough to make it worthwhile going there. Parking was easy - right in front of the store. Nice to see someone right behind a counter asking if they can help you. Try getting that at Home Depot or Lowe's. The price for the doorknob was right and the product worked out just fine. Went back for extra keys - a little more pricey than the aforementioned big box stores. But to save having to drive around the city for just one thing? Priceless! Go to Salik's if you're in the East End and want to support a local business instead of a big box.

JJ-Lawn Mower Repair

If you are calling JJ, check your ego at the door…read more JJ thinks you are an idiot. You don't take care of your tools. He thinks you put crappy gas in your mower. He knows you didn't run the tank to full empty before storing for the winter. Your grass is too high and when you pick it up, later you're going to cut it on low and kill the grass and your motor. That even assumes you pick it up; he bets you will never show up again and he'll just spend time and labor and have to scrap the mower two years later. He thinks your weed wacker is a piece of crap. And he's probably right. I know because his garage is full of mowers and weed wackers. And they all suffer from this lack of caring for your tools. But you should go to JJ because he will fix your mower, clean it and make it like new, do it quickly, and charge you next to nothing. And JJ is a cool guy. You will consider breaking your mower again just so you can listen to JJ complain about his customers. Thank you, JJ.

The 'warranty' repair shop that Greenworks first referred me to told me it'd be three weeks before they could even look at the mower. Well, that's not going to work when the lawn is already starting to look like some kind of a wild nature diorama. Enter Steel City Mower & Plow. These guys knew right away what my mower's problem was, they got me in right away, fixed it right away, and were even able to take care of all of the repairs as covered under warranty. They're friendly and easy to talk to. Very happy! Pro tip: When you come in from Library Road, go down the driveway in between the buildings; they're in the back on the lower level.

Told them I would just pick up my item and take it elsewhere, Bill tells me "but I just told you we have your part". Also tells me when I tell him it's ridiculous I didn't hear from anyone in over a month "I agree to disagree". They look like you do plenty of business, so taking my business elsewhere won't really affect them, but I just couldn't give them my business. There's a ton of competition out there, I'd suggest finding elsewhere to go.
