My experience at this store with Nolan was so positive that I decided to step out from mainly…read morereviewing restaurants to give this place a shout-out. In the past in a different city I was a regular at our local S-W store. I think we had stopped in this Madison location once or twice since relocating to the area. I needed to get some paint for a project and needed it color matched. After the initial try I returned twice and worked with Nolan in attempt to better match the color. He was super patient and really determined to get the best match possible. He was very positive and customer focused which was greatly appreciated especially since their paint is not cheap. And in the end I think we got a good match. Thanks!

We have found excellent service and expert advice in choosing types of stains for outdoor application and interior latex for redecorating. I waited a year now to report that the oil based outdoor sealer and stain on a shed is still looking great!

Costs have skyrocketed everywhere, and you want to do it once and do it right!

I then recalled the paint used 11 years ago to paint it was from Hallman-Lindsay.

I am in LOVE with this store. I can not say enough good about it. I usually use big box stores for…read morewhat I need and that's because I know what I need and what I'm getting. When it comes to staining...well let's say I am the clueless wonder. Their customer service is excellent....both super friendly and knowlegeable. Bring in a sample of what you want matched. Bring in a sample piece for them to use to make the match and they will match it dead nuts on. I never tried oil based stains as I thought they were so much harder to work with. WRONG!! OMG...their stains are virtually foolproof. Not even kidding when I say they are pretty much idiot proof. They go on so smooth it's like magic. Prices are super reasonable. You pay no more there than you would at a bigger box store and on many items like good brushes they're cheaper. I can not say enough good about this store and its employees. I would recommend them hands down to anyplace else. My days of water based stain and poly and being pissed and frustrated are over. Oil based and custom mixed colors all the way now thanks to Hallman-Lindsay.

Best prices on painting accessories in Janesville, hands down. There's almost always specials on…read morePurdy and Wooster brushes. Only place in Janesville I know of that has Tung Oil (not "tung oil *finish*" - which is tung oil and poly). Their house brand rags are the best I've ever used - if you do a lot of wiping, buy your rags here. Their bags of rags are almost entirely made of the rags you pick through other bags to find when you want a decent one for your project. The sell Jen brand foam brushes for what you'd pay on Amazon. (Jen is probably tied for first place for best foam brushes. The ones at the box stores are essentially unusable.) The only negative-in-a-totally-selfish-way thing I have to say about them is they carry every paint thinner in existence from denatured alcohol to naptha to the most uncommon ones, but they don't carry odorless mineral spirits. Which is understandable because most pros prefer naptha for application because it dries faster and paint thinner for cleaning because it cuts better but I'm a sensitive fucking snowflake and need my thinner's stink removed. Their paints are as good as anyone else's top tier, with competitive prices, but if you're not a contractor it's the hidden costs of painting that really hit you and their prices on those are far lower than the competition for either the same or a better product (drop cloths, painter's pal liners, brushes, foam brushes, sandpaper, etc). Working with wood, I use a lot of oils, poly, spar, rags, foam brushes, and sandpaper. I know the prices on Amazon and at Home Depot, Wal-Mart, Sherwin-Williams, and Farm & Fleet for all of them. H-L is the place to go. Also their staff is ridiculously helpful if you need it. And they carry Cabot wood stain and General Finishes milk paint - both of which are top end for what they do. 5/5 all day.

I was brought up front to finish the Check out and handed over to someone else to complete the process. All-in-all it was about a 2 hr job from When I walked in to order to When I Walked back Out. Originally we were told that the install dates were about 2 weeks out and someone would be calling me for an install date. Two weeks later I called to check on an install date and was told my order had been cancelled. WHAT?!! Turns out that the different carpet ordered for a porch was canceled in error. They did offer 50% discount on the porch carpet which was a small room and Consisted of a price about $50 less. install date was 4 weeks from the order date. I received a phone call one day for The house carpet and received a call the next day for a different install date for the porch carpet. I asked them to please install all the Carpet on The same day. Installation day arrives and I received a call telling me they were loading up now and would arrive in 15-20 minutes which turned into about an hour later. Maybe they stopped off for breakfast?
