So that by itself makes Besse's the ultimate painter's destination in Torrington - well, DIY-painter, that is.

Parking is a bit problematic at times, but it's not a big deal. Great painting resource.

We wanted to update our experiences with Ace, and we realized in doing so that they really haven't…read morechanged much in the last three years. We like this store very much. We like the enlargement of their stock in recent years, the ease of access in this clean, well-organized store, and the helpfulness of the folks who work here. We think the store is more customer-oriented than ever, and we are especially happy with their rental section from whom we have rented everything from equipment to tents. And we continue to like that they offer a nice selection of Litchfield-tagged clothing items (hoodies, sweatshirts, etc.). Parking is better these days, and ... well, like we said, we're happy here. Thanks to the owners.

They have the Connecticut 169 books, local products, and really cute little stickers. There are even Litchfield sweatshirts. The employees were very engaged with the customers, and free ones were quick to offer their assistance. (One could call them "helpful hardware folk....) The aisles were clear, and the displays clean and well organized. The parking lot lines are a bit faded so it can be a bit of a free for all, or at least close quarters where the line is clearer one side than the other.

While visiting a friend's home I learned she had recently worked with Thomas and his team to…read morerefinish their kitchen and dining room cabinets, which were beautiful. The same evening I met her neighbor who also worked with Thomas to refinish her kitchen. I had been thinking about doing this in my kitchen as my dark cabinets, while beautiful and perfectly functioning, made my space look very dark. Like many people, I spend the majority of my time at home in my kitchen. I scheduled a consult with Thomas and his team and was struck by their eye for design and ability to keep the things we had that worked well and enhance them by adding just the right colors to make the space more current and to add brightness. I did not feel oversold and they took the time to come out several times to help us work through color decisions. When the crew came to do the work I was awestruck with their diligence, attention to detail, focus on preparation, and cleanliness. They minimized disruption to our family, and executed the project perfectly. Thomas came by frequently to be sure the project was on track. My husband and I could not be more pleased with the outcome. I absolutely give Thomas Mach Interiors five stars! The entire process and the outcome were flawless.

We have been in our house for 5 years and have lived with the old dark kitchen colors that were…read morepopular in the early 2000's. We had looked at replacing cabinets and at painting and we decided the cabinets were great and checked on painting. Some of the painters we looked at did not do the quality job we wanted (visible brush strokes etc.) so we contacted Thomas Mach for a consultation. He came and shared his vision for how our kitchen could look and we decided right then to go ahead on the project. His team was so professional, and completely protected the rest of the house from the painting. Everything was sprayed on the spot using Farrow and Ball Paint which carries a 6 year warranty. They also helped us decide on new countertops and back splash. They managed the entire project start to finish and we had a new kitchen in just over a week. We were so impressed we had them also paint our dining room which needed it. This was not a low cost project and more expensive than other companies we checked with, but the quality, professionalism and speed made the choice obvious and worth the value.

It said they had a certain amount of washers in store in stock for delivery. And they were right on. I was able to save 20% off of the price today by opening their credit card. Capped at $100 discount, even if you purchased a $700 machine. No problem at all. No pre payment penalties. I can pay it off as soon as i receive the first bill. Easy process. Tim only needed my name number and address in back by the appliances. Then he sent me up front to the cashiers to finalize the transaction. This is where they needed all of my info to process the cc app. Easy peasy. Girl up front very nice Extremely simple process. Tim was such a pleasure to work with. This store is in the sticks in the woods not close to much else but it was well worth the drive out here to find in stock appliances.
