For years I've been looking for a reason to shop at Greenworks. From the time I first saw the…read moreproprietor, Alastair, on stage at Epic! to the kitchen reno of a friend, done with materials from Greenworks, I knew I had started a store love affair. Then one fateful rainy afternoon, Peter S and I were walking by. And it just so happened we'd just come from a neighbour's apartment that was being renovated. Needless to say, we had flooring on the brain. If you are into home finishings and fixtures like tiles, flooring and paints AND are someone who is also committed to sourcing environmentally sustainable items, this store is right up your alley. The staff is knowledgeable -- not just about the item, but also about its environmental footprint. They host workshops -- although according to their website -- their last one was held in July. The shopping experience itself is no pressure, quiet, and relaxed. We could take our time roaming and when we were ready, they sent us home with 2 bamboo flooring samples. Do I want to make sustainable choices for my apartment? You bet. I just need to save an additional sum to do so! Worth it? To me, yup.

In the midst of kitchen reno decision making, my man and I came here to get some sustainable…read morerenovation advice. We received some great advice, helpful service, and found some awesome tile options for the backsplash. I had been hoping to have a look at the Fireclay Tiles in person and they stock these here. Absolutely beautiful and made of recycled materials. Another wonderful bit of advice was regarding our counter top. We had our hearts set on a brand where there is a factory in Canada, but being that there is also a factory in Korea, it was hard to know which colour options came from which plant. We were able to find out from Diana that the colour we had chosen is made in Canada, which was great news. Other stores had not been able to provide this information, or told us incorrectly the material was made in China, or it was all made in Canada. They carry a lot of bulk and refillable cleaning supplies that are all green and earth-friendly. And should you need a chicken coop, they have those, too!

Because no one seems to care about their job here... I think I might find another place to get lumber next time.

Tile is tile for instance, but some of the hardware, tools, fasteners, etc. are pure junk Just be picky about what you get, and if you want anything to last, you may want to shop elsewhere. That being said, this is great for landlords where things like doorknobs, locks, and other small things that could break easily can be replaced cheaply, even if damaged by the tenants. I will continue to shop here, but I'll just be judicious on what I decide to buy.
