This was the ONLY place in Santa Rosa that had all the electrical items I needed in stock. Otherwise I’d have needed to go to multiple big box stores. Ordered on line, got a text and email when ready. In and out in a minute. Friendly. Prices just fine.
Great help finding products and recomendations for cleaning. Very helpful and wanted to be sure we were getting everything we needed.One concern is the aisle are very narrow.
I just visited your store on Yulupa Ave in Santa Rosa CA. As I entered an employee asked if I needed any help and I said point me in the direction of the lightbulbs. A second employee followed me to the lightbulbs and stood there while I made my selection. As I started to walk back to the checkstand he said can I help you with anything else?. I said no. He kept following me, and I started to get uncomfortable. I stopped and said are you following me? He said no, just seeing if you need any help. I said I already told you no. Do you think Im going to steal something?. He replied Well, you never know. This is what were told to do. So I ask: is it ACE corporate/company policy to treat your customers like thieves?
I went in looking for a water pressure gauge. Asked about it at the front. They directed me to the right place. A couple minutes search found the gauge. Very helpful staff. And they had what I needed.
Staff is super helpful. Not the cheapest but you won’t waste any time here. Thank you Collin for always being super courteous! Bravo!
Small but very well stocked for suburban needs. Super helpful staff!
Those guys are the best and they always have what I need!!
People here will help you with any question you got. Within reason, of course
Great selection in a small space. Staff are super helpful!
Ace never lets me down, always helpful employees, who know about everything in the store. If they dont have, you dont need it.
Everything you need and super friendly staff.
We have been customers since they opened their doors. They are very helpful & carry everything that we have ever needed from Ant bait to Yellowjacket traps. Plumbing & electrical. Paint & supplies. Nails & Screws. Brooms, Mops, & a huge assortment of cleaning supplies. Gardening supplies. Door knobs and deadbolts. Hasps & Locks. Chain by the foot. And so much more! If they don’t have it, they will order it.5 stars don’t do them justice.
The staff here are incredibly friendly and helpful! My favorite hardware store to shop!
Great service and impressive selection for such a small spot.
Super helpful staff and good inventory. They always seem to have parts that are hard to find at the big box stores.
They’ve always got plenty of nice people to help me find stuff in this little store. It is jampacked.
Always friendly and helpful staff. Not too crowded. Easy returns
Been a customer at BV Ace for 15 years. Best hardware store in the area, and its not a close competition. Friendly staff that is more knowledgeable than their competitors. Thats pretty much all you need to know.
An amazing collection of material and supplies cramed into a tiny closet.
I moved into a new apartment recently and needed a fan I could place in the window to bring in air from outside at night. I came into Ace hardware (2nd visit in my life) because Im trying to make a conscious effort to buy from smaller businesses instead of big box chains like Home Depot. I immediately saw the fan I needed next to the door upon entering, grabbed it, and checked out. It became very obvious the first few nights that this wasnt working because the base was too wide to get close enough to the window so I had to order a box fan specific to placing in windows. I brought this fan in over a weekend just 13 days after purchasing it only to be surprised that they wouldnt accept it back because of a tiny green sticker saying non-returnable. Their excuse was that they didnt want people buying fan and air purifiers in light of the heat waves and fires temporarily and then returning them.How exactly does 13 days (and only this long because I needed to come in over a weekend) constitute abusing a return policy? A policy which, mind you, says NOTHING about non-returnable items anywhere on the receipt; It simply says that items must be brought in within 30 days in new condition. So after discussing this with the clerk, Im dismissed and told to call John or Tom (something like that).I call that week and this person begins arguing with me about quality and that they have many items throughout the store with these stickers.When did quality not also dictate that you clearly make customers aware upon checking out that such a thing exists? When did quality dictate that you dont also explicitly write these terms on your return policy and on the receipts?I asked how any other returnable item is cleaned then? The person I spoke with argued with me how am I supposed to sanitize a fan in a box?---he never did answer how he sanitizes anything else that is returned. Are you seriously suggesting that every other returned item comes without a box?I happen to be a scientist of many years and I am the last person you should attempt lecturing on quality standards and sanitation. If it was that big of a deal that you thought I would be bringing COVID-19 germs in on a fan then you could have let the box sit in the back for a couple weeks. Do you think these boxes also arrive sanitized from the truckers who deliver them? Please dont kid yourself that youre fooling anyone. Every store also budgets in a loss for returned items---EVERY STORE.Ultimately I was told I could come in for store credit--no thanks, Ill pass! In fact, Ill be permanently taking my business back to Home Depot.
Great people. Always helpful.
Young man behind counter was very friendly and professional. Rare sight these days.
Great service and I love this place.
Its nice to have such a well stocked and friendly staffed store so close. Thank you for always being ready to help!
Great place...great staff...very helpful and knowledgeable!!!
Defiantly the best.
Had what l needed, very friendly staff
Well stocked, great customer help
Great customer service! So far theyve had everything Ive needed.
I didnt know places like this existed anymore. I just moved to this area in Santa Rosa and have been there twice. Both times the workers were so helpful. I had to replace a battery for my car key and it was difficult to open, the guy patiently did it for me (without me even asking) and was so nice about it. Definitely a store I can recommend!
The Price is Right they dont mark it up like other Ace Hardwares Ive been to like the one in Sonoma. The people are kind and helpful Ive always been able to find what I needed there
Very helpful staff!
Super helpful and knowledgeable staff.They had exactly Every item I needed Too.
This is my favorite hardware store. Theyve helped me with my weed whacker, replacing screens, etc., and my odd jobs where I ask can you think of a way to do . . . ?
Beautiful !
Very helpful staff!
I love this place! Locally owned, really friendly, helpful staff, and they know their stuff. And theyll tell you when they dont know! Its the only hardware store I go to.
The employees are very helpful!
Great little store with a very helpful staff.
My. Home town hardware store.
Excellent service
They nearly always have the things that I need from a hardware store and, more importantly, the staff is uniformly great. Friendly, engaged and helpful. I always enjoy the visit.
Nice pleasant store, with helpful staff. I get great service help everytime I come in. The store may be a little small. But it appears they have about very thing, plus very tidy and clean.
Helpful and friendly staff.
Parts I needed
I have rats in my garage, and now in my heater closet. We live on Matanzas Creek in Santa Rosa. I was using spring traps and they wore out after one catch. I went into ACE looking for bait to Kill them. I was directed to a metal container open at one end. It looks like a can with a straight bottom. At $50 I was reluctant to buy one. I returned a few weeks later and decided to buy one...Am I ever impressed!!! I have caught 4 rats and today alone 5 mice!!!! I am using peanut butter!!!! Amazing invention. Uses batteries...A big Thankyou to the store employee that directed me to,this great product!
Truly a favorite, neighborhood hardware store. I must have relied on them at least a dozen times or more. Always helpful and knowledgeable!!
Great customer service. Very friendly environment. Your neighborhood go to hardware store.
Compact store with large selection of high quality items at competitive prices. Very knowledgeable staff and theyre super helpful.
I was out enjoying the night with a friend decided to go to Ace Hardware to get a keychain walked in was stare down by the cashier / worker as if we were going to rob the place granted we were wearing beanies and looked I guess a menace to him but nonetheless he treated us as if we were criminals as we just walked in the establishment. To think that he would judge us by our appearance and not by the people that we are was quite disturbing I think that he should be reprimanded for his actions.
I love the Bennett Valley Ace Hardware! Everyone who works here is friendly and helpful and they have everything you need, usually.
Friendly helpful staff. They have everything you need.
Great place with plenty of items to chose from
They got everything. Theyre knowledgeable and friendly
Always helpful with projects. Their staff know how to get things to work, and dont send you home with the wrong product.
Friendly staff, always very helpful, and they always have a smile on.
The employees are very knowledgeable and helpful. Slightly more expensive than going to a big hardware store, but worth it in most cases.
Great store
They cram alot in a small store
Im always so surprised to see that they have more things than home depot.
Like this local hardware store!
Extremely helpful, knowledgeable staff!
Excellent and fast service!
Great people
