As far as hardware stores and home improvement goes, I always go to this Ace Hardware before Lowes or Home Depot. At this location you're almost always greeted at the door and asked if you need help finding anything. If so, I have found, every employee fully versed on locating specific items or quickly pointing you to another person who does. The staff is always VERY helpful and curteous. Not at all like some of the "miles of isles and stacks of racks" home improvement stores. The only reason I did'nt give 5 stars is due to once in a while, having to special order or find it somewhere else. But generally they have everything needed for standard home improvement projects. The most important reason I shop here is they love dogs and allow leashed friendly animals in where other stores forbid it. I bring my black lab with me every visit. She loves the biscuits at the checkout counter too!
