Humus - full of rocks, glass and plastic
Michelle L.

BEWARE - Poor Quality Compost and Poor Customer Service On Saturday, July 26, my husband purchased half a yard of "humus blend" compost from the Davis Ace rock yard. When he got home, I immediately noticed several large rocks, glass shards, and bits of plastic mixed in. I called the store right away and was told there had been previous complaints, but they thought this was a new delivery. The store manager apologized and said we could return the compost for a full refund. When we returned it, the yard staff were kind and helpful in removing it from our truck. However, when I went inside to process the refund, the rock yard manager was curt -- both to us and to the associate handling the return. When I explained why we were returning the product, his only response was that it was our responsibility to inspect the compost before purchase. This was shocking and completely inappropriate. A customer buying a "humus blend" should not have to sift through it on-site to make sure it doesn't contain glass and debris. I followed up with an email and a letter to the store owner, Mark Schulein, but received no response. Needless to say, we will be purchasing our landscape products elsewhere. I was willing to write this off as a one-time mistake, but the manager's dismissive attitude and lack of accountability have made me lose trust in the quality and integrity of Davis Ace Hardware.

Small wheel (rats need at least 12" wheels) and dirty tube.

Was in the store again and nothing has changed with the enclosure. Got a picture this time, the rats seem very depressed. Employee was very nice and said she'd inform management, so we'll see. Why sell animals if you don't actually care about their wellbeing? Even understaffed Petco has better enclosures than this. What are you gonna do about it management?

Repotting our precious orchid plant
Jolene L.

When you are gifted with a beautiful orchid, you tend to want to keep the plant long after the blooms have shared their beautiful blossoms. That's why we went to Ace and found everything we needed to repot and properly care for our orchid plant. Great variety of almost everything you need for lawn and garden care. Prices are reasonable too. We found the aerated pot, all the potting materials, and even brought home some fragrant rosemary. Every employee we encountered was super knowledgeable and helpful. No one rushes you off. It's been a fun shopping experience every time we go to Ace.

For my garden
Lizz H.

Well...as they say... Ace is the Place"! And I have to agree. This location has certainly been a cornerstone of Davis as far back as I can remember and then some! Most people in Davis just consider this place part of their family! And even though the original owners, who lovingly started this store I believe 30 years ago, recently sold to another owner... it still remains a valued member of the Davis Community! Electrical, plumbing, nails and hammers... all the basics are here! But it also has that creative and personal touch that we all love and adore! A great big ole section dedicated to indoor plants, everything yard care, live animals (just little ones LOL) and lots of bird items as you can tell from my photos. The outdoor section is filled with seasonal plants and flowers. And soooo much more! Exceptional customer service. Help always available in every department. Advice with any problem or project you may have! Just a reliable store in every way! Thank you for being the best Ace! Here's to 30 more great years.

See all

Both the staff and district manager at this location were unhelpful in resolving an ordering issue…read more I ordered a $1600 pool cleaning robot for same day delivery after seeing that option available on the Leslie's Pool website. I selected Davis, and what could have been the start of a great relationship with a local business quickly became a disappointment due to their disinterest in helping resolve a Leslie's end error. Unfortunately the staff and the district manager made it very apparent they could not be bothered with me and tried to pass the buck for the Leslie's error telling me to call Uber, who of course insisted it was a Leslie's error. Uber thankfully told me to call Leslie's Corporate although I had to find that number on my own. Leslie's Corporate confirmed I entered the correct delivery address as screenshots and an invoice show (and as I had explained) and is working to resolve the problem and get me my apparently no longer arriving same day product... Even sending me to Leslie's corporate and a general knowledge of what was going on and some empathy from the local staff could have resolved the issue that morning instead of in the afternoon after a day spent chasing around a $1600 item, mostly for the benefit of Leslie's or Uber; one of whom was going to have to eat the cost with AMEX if they didn't get it back. Regardless of whose fault it was I will not be visiting Leslie's in Davis or getting a quote for pool service from them. I want to work with businesses that go out of their way to help customers, especially when the error is due to their brand.

We have a Polaris Robotic Sweeper that stopped working wile under warranty. It was purchased at…read moreLeslie's in Vacaville. We attempted to have it serviced at the Vacaville location but the manager was short with us and would not allow us to leave it to be serviced. We contacted Leslie's main office and they suggest we try their store in Davis. We drove to Davis and spoke with the store manager, Paula. Paula was great! She took the time to listen about the sweeper and how it wasn't operating. Paula explained that 1) they would be more than happy to take the sweeper and repair it. 2) Paula also let us know that Polaris is backlogged and slow shipping parts out. 3) Paula said she our keep us updated on the sweeper. Paula called us weekly to update us on what was actually wrong with the sweeper and that the parts had been ordered. Approximately 3 weeks later Paula called and said the motor has been replaced, they also wanted to replace the cord but that had not come in yet. Paula said if wanted to pick up the sweeper we could and they would notify us when the cord came in. We picked up the sweeper and approximately a week later Paula called us again. This time she said the sweeper cord still hadn't came in BUT we were getting a new sweeper to replace the one that was under warranty. I can't say enough good things about Paula and the Davis, Leslie's Pool Supply. I have no doubt that Paula's tenacity and Pierre's, the District Manager's concern for taking care of customers was what led to this positive outcome. We definitely would say that if you live in Vacaville it s we'll worth the drive to Leslie's in Davis. We will be spending our money at Leslie's in Davis. We even brought Paula a present for her great customer service.
