I just came in looking for a freezer light bulb.. Other than the girl telling me what isle they were in (girl at front register) I was unsuccessful and quite a few employees walked right by me and didn't even ask if I needed help.. read more

I came in really close to closing to order some sheds. Kelli was super helpful in the ordering process, and the manager Victoria was great as well. There were a few other ladies that were helpful as well, but I didn't get a chance to see their name tags. What a great team of employees. Excellent customer service! read more

Jake the manager was nice, but the cashier Catharine was unfriendly, argumentative and a bit hostile. She refused to take a coupon, argued with me about it while not listening to what I was saying. When I spoke with Jake he said that they do in fact take those coupons. Maybe she should have consulted a manager before first trying to run me off in a condescending manner. This was my first visit here and it really gave a bad impression. From now on I'll stick with their competitor True Value who goes above and beyond for their guests and always provides great customer service. They also pick and choose who they mandate their mask rule on. I was approached and told it was mandatory and an old man who walked in before me was not. read more

I came into today to buy some plywood and was told I couldn't go through any of it to find the right piece. They told me all the wood is the same when you can visually see some are bowing and others are cracked. I'll probably just return for small stuff now when I can't get to Redlands or Beaumont. read more

I normally go to ace to grab something I need as it is right around the corner from my house. It typically has what I need and for that I give ace 5 Stars. However, this review is based off of my most recent experience there. As I stood in line the cashier, who has always been exceptionally kind and quick with what he does, asked the store manager to help with something. Normally, a store manager (who should be an example to his employees) would help, or take the opportunity to teach this young man but no, the manager treated the young man with such disrespect and spoke to him as if he had done something terribly wrong. It made me and I'm sure the other customers in line feel very uncomfortable. Now I totally realize there could be way more going on here, and I understand this employee may be on thin ice because of other issues. But whether he is or not, no manager should talk like that to his employee in front of customers and more importantly no one should ever treat or talk to another human being like that no matter what... read more

I love our local Ace store. The staff are always friendly, knowledgeable and willing to help. The other day I placed an online order for an OONI pizza oven. After a couple days my order was canceled but no reason was given. I tried several times to call customer service but wasn't able to get my answer. Then I called my local Ace and one of the mangers, Justine, did the leg work and helped me get my OONI ordered again. Thank you so much Justine and Ace. Yucaipa is lucky to have an Ace hardware and you earned a customer for life. read more

I made a call from Beaumont to ask for Benjamin Moore advance paint and ask if they carried the full line, satin in particular. I was told they did until I made the drive and they only carry high gloss. At $5 a gallon for gas, I was upset. Whoever answers the phone should know what they are talking about. read more

omg... omg... omg. What a turn around !!! This place is now my favorite store... not hardware store...STORE PERIOD, The staff is now energetic, Super Friendly, and get this.... SUPER ATTENTIVE !!! read more

I went in to have keys made. Girl did a great job. However the cashier was talking to a customer while I was paying, she was talking about the presidential debate on the border and how it shouldn't have been allowed to be in Spanish. She said " really now there on TV talking in Spanish! I had to turn off my TV, it needs to be only in English, that's what we speak here. " the customer is agreeing with her and throwing his 2 cents in. While my Mexican butt is standing there . If the president or anyone in Congress, who ever etc etc is talking about the border, Mexicans, deportation, illegals Then it should be spoken in Spanish and English. They need to know what's going on and what's going to happen to them. It's like talking behind their backs as far as I'm concerned. Interpret is a better word. Either way u look at it, the employee should NEVER talk to customers like that. Racist in that store. read more

Customer service is not up to par with most Ace Hardware stores. This is the third time this year that the person seemed more bothered than interested in helping me. I also take into account that I came in with a half hour left before closing and the current employment climate, so I gave 2 stars. The worker pool is thin and a lot of the time these days you have to settle. It's just frustrating when you're spending money and the entire time the person keeps sighing because you are getting more than one item. read more

First time shopper at this Ace. Great service. Lots of help to locate items I needed. Everyone was friendly and helpful, especially the store manager. Had to make two visits, both visits were the same excellent service!!!! read more

Very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff who dont make you feel like an idiot for asking stupid questions. Helped me solve my pest problem without having to call an exterminator and has helped me maintain a pest free home. Some prices are a bit much than the lowest youd see else where, but thats because they stock quality product, it seems like if it doesnt work they dont stock it and i appreciate that. read more

This store is awfully handy when you need something obscure. They have always come through with bolts, nuts, and odd-shaped screws. Much more convenient than driving out to HD or Lowe's. This is the crux of my complaint: customer service here sucks. Now, I understand that you don't go to a hardware store to feel all fuzzy inside. But dealing with employees who obviously don't care about helping you can get irritating. A cashier was busy texting someone than ringing me up. I waited for about a minute for her to finish her conversation. I just think the store should do something to boost the morale of their (younger) crew. It would go a long way. read more

If I could give 10 or more reviews I would! I ordered a Weber bbq and customer service were so helpful and caring. ACE is the place thats for sure 5th street Yucaipa, California! I had purchased a bbq from another place 5 years ago and I never forgot how bad the customer service was and when I received my bbq it was assembled terribly. That's why I went to ACE because somehow I knew in my heart that they would put my bbq together just perfectly. And they assembled it and delivered it on time!!! I am so thankful and jazzed! Thank you all of you there at ACE!!! read more

As I left this store recently, I found myself very grateful for it. I live only a few blocks away and don't have to drive to Beaumont or Redlands hardware stores to complete the small projects that I undertake quite frequently. I come here knowing a few things: 1) I know that I will attempt to find the items myself for 5 minutes before I ask for help (Most of the time, I am offered assistance prior to the expiration of that time). 2) This is not a 'high volume' store, so I understand that having/ keeping a huge staff is not sustainable and I'm comfortable with that. 3) When I do get assistance, I anticipate that they will have what I need. 4) I know that I will pay a little higher retail here, but it saves the trip 12 miles in either direction to save a buck or two. My time is worth more to me than that. For a store with knowledgeable staff, the things you need and a good 'mom and pop' feel, Ace will get the job done. I hope my five-star review offsets the negative reviews of others who are less understanding than I am. (Update)Taylor and Allie were awesome during my last visit. They were super helpful and their customer service was through the roof. Thanks, ladies! read more

This is a great store to get unusual parts and pieces but they will not allow customers to use their restrooms. Have you ever had to pee so bad you were on the verge of peeing your pants? !!!! If you're going to open up to make money, please have the common courtesy to provide restrooms. read more

I am thrilled to say that my experience with the local Ace Hardware was as good as the one back home in La Jolla Ca. I have been in many times and have been welcomed and they facilitated every need with swift and informative style. They are no nonsense project managers. But their unique personality beams right threw. I had no problem exchanging the remaining items I did not use. And I recommend this group of competent people completely. Check your YELP offerings too as it was effective in getting me a free ceiling air conditioning filter! That was just what I needed too. No questions asked...normally $7.00! It is so appreciated to have these local support teams on our side when it comes to household repairs, and a kind down home attitude as well. Thanks for your consistent help in my never ending home repair journey. read more

Back to back trips from a diy project. Great selection. The staff is always friendly. So easy because it's close and not a big box store. read more

Crown Ace Hardware - Special pieces. - Hardware Stores Near Me - Yucaipa, California

See all

Always the best customer service and they have everything. I'll pay a few dollars more any day to shop here instead of Home Depot. They have a great rewards program and you can't beat their coupons. Thanks Ace for providing Yucaipa with the best hardware store. read more

I just walked out of your store 2 employees not wearing face coverings, maybe there's a new county mandate the makes it not mandatory to be covered but it didn't make me feel safe not this soon, so no business of mine read more

This isn't some giant warehouse DIY store stocked with limited source brands aka Lowes or Home Depot. There's pretty much every replacement part across many brands, ever conceivable screw, nut or bolt - including metric sizes - as well as plumbing parts, hardware and a great selection of tools. My only gripe is that some of the staff aren't as knowledgeable as Sean so you can end up just finding it yourself but honestly there's a lot of knowledge in everyone's head so I'm never afraid to ask. Impressed by the paint section- quality and cost is far better than either of the big brands- and there's a whole yard full of building materials for the bigger projects. The loyalty program is worth joining as we've saved over $100 this year. Prices are a little higher than the big box but I don't have to do the long drive, deal with ill informed staff or struggle to find essential parts. Locally owned so use it. read more

So I came into crown ace with a bit of trepidation. I was told that the customer service here is grouchy, Ha! Anything but the truth! These people are absolutely wonderful and really know their stuff! Tina helped me greatly. I needed a few different things and she followed me around the store ensuring that I found everything I need. Their prices were reasonable and every person that I met there had a smile on their face :-) The only thing keeping me from giving them five stars is the fact that there were a number of items that do not have prices on them. That was a bit annoying but they're kind and friendly attitude certainly counteracted any negativity. By far the friendliest hardware store in the area! read more

Love to small town feel and wonderful service. We are so glad you are here! The customer service is great and they have pretty much anything you would need. Shop local and support this great store! read more

Love this place! Somehow they always have what I need and their staff knows where it is and are very friendly. We need need more Ace Hardwares! read more

Don't ever get keys made here. I had 3 simple keys duplicated and none worked. I had to go back a second time and told them to please make sure new set works. They checked and double checked and assured me it was a good key. Again i returned to the house to use the keys and none of the 3 worked again! So frustrating and it was then that I remembered the same experience at the same store years ago. I wish i had remembered earlier. Managers did nothing but offer to try a third time. read more

On New Year's Eve, a slight odor of natural gas in my old farm house root cellar prompted a call to the Gas Company. Shortly, Mike arrived and did a thorough inspection. All was safe, but we detected a small hole in my aging floor furnace casing, so he had turn shut it down, meaning no heat for the house as the temperatures were dropping to the 40s and below. I called Ace and asked about space heaters. They had several types but I could not get up the hill in time. Heather, who took the call, put me on hold. She came back to say, "We're bringing you a heater! What price range and kind are you interested in?" I told her and she said someone would be coming down shortly! That someone, who delivered it, set it up, and even declined a tip and mug of hot cider, was Joe, the store manager, himself. I did not know that until New Year's morning when I called to thank Heather and the staff for this amazing gesture when everyone was ready to go home to their families on a chilly New Year's Eve. This kind of genuine care and concern for a long time, senior customer is why so many Yucaipa and Redlands customers love their small town family owned or locally owned businesses. This is a rare example of customer care and service. "We don't want you to be cold on this wintry night, "Heather explained when I could not find the words after such an unexpected surprise. In a world now filled with unkind, uncaring, mean-spirited, destructive, revenge driven, and hate filled people around us, there shines those who are generous, kind, caring, and going out of their way to help others. May this new year bring every warm and good wish wish to Ace and always helpful team of dedicated staff members who have shown me nothing but the best of customer service for many, many years. read more

I can not say enough about the fantastic service I received from Haylee Bangle last weekend. I was re screening my back sliding door at first I got the material too thick brought that back and got the right material when I unrolled it found it was to short. At this point I was becoming frustrated when I got back Ace Haylee who had helped me originally and understood my situation took me out to the screen and glass room and had them cut me a piece of screen material for my door. Haylee went out of her way to see that I got what I needed to do my door. it is this kind of service that will have me go to this Ace Hardware for any of my hardware needs first. Thank you Haylee read more

Love going to Ace Hardware. All the staff are very friendly. Had a project recently and got stuck, Dennis at Ace helped talk me through what to do and helped me find what I needed, just like at the store in the small town where I grew up. Really appreciated that and love the small town feel. Service with a smile and people that really care. read more

Love this place. The staff is so helpful. This is a true small town hardware store. They spend time with me to complete projects the way I want. Haylee was great. She took the time to find what I need and help me put it together!! read more

EXTREMELY helpful staff. Well-organized store. Easy returns. Home Depot and Lowe's could take some pointers from them. "Ace Rewards" Program is also a nice incentive. read more

Great Ace Hardware store, Helpful, friendly, and fast. Whatever they're paying their employees isn't enough!. They are on top of their game. If HD had service like this store they would be a Monster!. read more

** Iam editing my review, because after I complained the BBB, Ace has given me a full refund. DO NOT purchase paint here. I tried to buy black paint here- I went home and the color was a navy blue/grey. I went back to Ace and had the assistant manager Joe help me. He suggested adding a few squirts of black to my gallon of grey paint. The end result was still grey. I told him that I was not happy with the paint color, but he said there was nothing he could do about it. I then decided to just return the paint and get a refund. He would not refund me my $30 stating that my paint had now became a "custom color" and they do not refund on "custom colors". I asked him if he was a paint specialist and he said yes, I explained how adding a few squirts of black to this light navy blue/grey would not work. He became defensive... and re-iterated there was nothing he could do about it. I told him I would never shop here again-even though I'am completely remodeling my home, I also told him I would be putting in a complaint to the BBB, he still did not care to help me nor act like he even cared. *All I can do is warn others not to waste money and time buying paint here. read more

Everytime ive gone here no matter what the project, there is always an employee willing to take the time to explain in detail to me what is required. I cant tell you how much time or money they have saved me! I always shop here for my hardware needs read more

Sean D! Thanks for the awesome service. I will be back for more exceptional experiences at Crown Ace Hardware.

Pretty disappointed - This is my 3rd visit.... Almost useless help - When asking for bolts and nuts , the guy pretty much just points and grunts.... I got home with only 2 of the 3 cans of paint I asked for . The 3rd simply disappeared behind the counter and never made it to my bag.... Not really wanting to return there..... read more

Horrible service waited and no one came even after they called, cashier was incompetent whoever she was at 4:39pm 12/5 I will drive 30 min out of the way than to ever go back.. read more

If you look at the reviews before mine you will see that they all have usually 4 to 5 stars and mine would be the same but I was at Ace three times in the last week and a half and I don't know what they've done but there's no one working there anymore! Not sure what happened but a few months ago there was a huge shakeup and just about everybody that had worked there for years no longer work there managers were moved people were let go and now there's all new people there. And now the last few times I've been there I practically live at that place there's only been 3 to 4 employees in the entire store yesterday myself and many other customers were running around trying to find somebody to help us with no one available I really hope that this gets resolved soon I would hate to start going to the other place at the boulevard!!!! read more

Always the best service & most knowledgeable staff to help me with my project needs. Yucaipa Ace Hardware offers a great atmosphere and a very well organized store, with inventory always available, I never have to drive around looking what i need. From small to big projects, Ace has you covered. I also like that they carry different products than your typical Home Depot or Lowe's stores. You will find everything you need here & at great prices! read more

Sooooo disappointed in this place. I have always liked ACE over the big box stores but will not be back. Took a screen in for repair. Never received a call when it was ready and when I called a week later I was told they could not find my screen. After speaking to a supervisor and then passed on to someone else, I was told they would make a new one for me. Although Ramon was very apologetic the screen they made is garbage compared to my original screen. My screen was made from strong custom made material. You can tell this one was made from cheap material. The mesh isn't tight and the frame is very flimsy. I decided to just deal with it and take it home. When I went to install it, I found there is at least a quarter inch gap on either side. The measurements were based off of what your employee took when I brought it in. I am so irritated that I don't even want to take it back. Again, used to love this tire but I will not be back!!!! read more

Called to see if they had any specials on the Traeger grills was told they had $50.00 off grills that were priced $400.00 or more. Got there and of course they said no you get a free bag of pellets ... really pellets ?! So I talked with the manager Shelly and she said that sale is Father's Day and they would not honor what their employee said! We bought the grill because we were here and have been looking but definitely no customer service skills. If your not gonna stand by what your employees say when consumers are calling in maybe you should train them to have correct info for your customers or not be on the phones. read more
