But it has been in business serving the community since 1959! If you come on a nice Sunny afternoon, it is jammed packed with seniors shopping in the area. And surprisingly it has a decent collection of kitchenware. BBQ seems to be their expertise. They also provides both sales and services to bbq. I drop by here occasionally if I shopping or eating in the plaza but it is A-OK for something small or you are an Aeroplan point collector!

This is actually a small hardware store as far as hardware stores are concerned, however, they have…read moresuch a wide selection of products. Every time I have visited, there is always a version of the product I am looking for, only a couple of times I did not like the version of the product they had and I ended up buying it elsewhere. Also you cannot beat the prices, they are a great deal! I have really liked having this hardware close by, as I like to be handy and hands only with all my household chores. This place has made it possible for me to complete quite a few projects around my home. This is always the first place I visit when I need something for a project I am working on and they usually have what I need! The staff here is mostly just one person, I think I have seen someone in the back working. But the guy is really friendly, knowledgeable and he demonstrates that knowledge when recommending tools and products. what more can you ask of your local family owned hardware store - friendly and knowledgeable! Works for me.

I am a contractor and I spend a real amount of money on building supplies every year, so I am…read morewriting this from that angle, not as someone popping in for a few screws on a Saturday. Rona Uxbridge is the closest yard to my main site, which should make them my go-to. It does not. The gap between them and Home Depot has gotten too big to ignore. At Home Depot I have actual people I deal with by phone and email. They know me, they know what I usually order, and they help me build out the order before I even get there. They chase down better pricing, suggest alternatives when something is back-ordered, throw in discounts where they can, and waive delivery on the bigger jobs. That kind of relationship saves me hours every week and a meaningful amount of money over the year. Rona has been the opposite. Most of the staff are green and clearly have not been trained properly. Ask about something that is not sitting right in front of them and you usually get a shrug, a vague point at an aisle, and that is the end of it. Nobody checks stock, nobody offers an alternative, nobody follows up. Their system for pricing and product info is a mess to navigate, and there is no real contractor desk to speak of. I have read other reviews from local contractors saying the same thing, so I know it is not just me. There are one or two good ones in there who clearly care and know their stuff, but they cannot carry the whole store. It is frustrating because the location is great and the yard itself has potential. Proximity only matters if I can actually get in and out without losing half my morning. Until they put real effort into training their team and building out proper contractor support, I will keep driving the extra distance. If you are a homeowner grabbing a few odds and ends, you will probably be fine. If you are running a business and your time is money, you already know where to go.

Bought a Napoleon Prestige BBQ at this store August 16, 2023. We like to buy Canadian if we can…read moreand we know Napoleon is a good product. The store even put it together for us which was great. This BBQ works great, it is at our cottage, and it has not been used that much. When we went to change our propane tank in July 2025, we noticed the doors that open there are lined with a hard plastic. This plastic is all melting. None of our other BBQ's had plastic inside these doors. We did not notice it as we had not needed to change our propane tank. We reached out to the store and they said that since it is past a year, we need to contact Napoleon - which we did try to do. Spent over an hour on two tries to get through to customer service. Then tried on line with no response. My husband called the Aurora store and spoke with the BBQ person - they then submitted our claim. That was August 6 - no word back yet. Not very happy. We thought shopping at a local Canadian store and buying a Canadian BBQ would be the best. But not happy. I have some good pictures of the melting doors if anyone wants to see them. We would like metal doors for this BBQ. We have been looking at BBQ's now when we are out and they all have metal doors - just like our old BBQ's.
