I came here with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised how good these guys were. They said my sample size was too small and sent me back which is the right thing to do because the other store didn't do that. So I came back with larger sample and Trevor made the paint and made me feel better about the whole process that things will only get better from here. When I came back home and applied the paint for the spots on my walls, it was an exact match. What a difference it makes when people do their jobs to the best of their abilities. I get it that the older man in the shop could come across cranky but he's the one who sent me back home to get a larger sample because of which Trevor made me the perfect paint. Overall, good customer service and extremely straightforward. Glad they're in the neighborhood. They're also reasonably priced compared to the other paint store I went to. Thanks to Trevor and the other two gentlemen who helped me as well.

Not the cleanest place in the world, but the colour matching can't be beat. All colors are made…read moreright in front of you from a recipe unlike other places where they use a computer. The problem with using the computer is that the machine will get jammed from dry residue from the paint and the workers rarely know how to clean the mechanism properly so you will not be getting the right amount of dye into the paint for the shade you choose and will have to return after wasting time painting only to realize the shade is off. Been there, done that, actually watched a worker get shot with red because the machine wasn't cleaned and the dry residue caused it to projectile towards her... lol, it was entertaining. They also do color matching, you can bring in just about anything, pillows, a piece of fabric, as long, and they can make other brands colors at a cheaper price with the same quality. They sell Pratt & Lambert, Sico, and some others, also they have their own brand of "Exclusive Paints". It's a family owned and run store, you can park right in front and they are conveniently located on College just west of Spadina on the north side. All in all my experiences here have been great and I've run into some entertainment industry types down there oddly enough. I guess nostalgia sticks for people... after all this place has been around for over 60 years, someone's always telling me a story when I come in there, I recommend the colour Dove that I got there, can't remember the make, it's an off-white purple... looks like white in the daytime and then turns to a very light calming purple as the night comes upon us, very refreshing!!!

As if they weren't cheap enough, you can also get paint in colours that sometimes you wouldn't think of using that are 'clearance'. If you're just painting a tool shed, or a kid's wooden toy box, is the colour really that important? It wasn't to me, and I paid about half of what I would have at Home Depot. By the way, haggling of prices is almost welcome here.

Went to closest store which sells Benjamin Moore and after choosing colour and quick consult, left with some paint. I painted my doors and colours don't match.

Anyways, off the another Benjamin Moore to get another quartz of Benjamin Moore Aura paint. So I'm out 40 dollars but another couple days work since I have many exterior doors.
