This is where I go for professional metalworking tools and supplies that Home Depot, Lowe's, and…read moreeven Grainger don't have in stock. This place (1) has the right and the best tools in stock, (2) the tools are often American-made, (3) the employees are knowledgeable and friendly, and (4) the prices are not any higher than at the ubiquitous Home Depots / Walmarts. Some things I bought here -- endmills, precision files, abrasives, spot weld removers, scribes. The entrance is on the back side of the building, not the side facing O'Toole Ave.

Amazing old fashioned tool supply store that caters to the little guy. I'm a home shop hobbyist and…read moreAl and Gilbert are always happy to take the time to guide me to the right tools. I come in with an idea of what I want and their advice gets me to what I need. They don't mind that I buy things in small numbers and have never had anything but a friendly attitude. Their tools are top-notch too. I believe them when they say they don't carry anything less than "good" quality, and the pricing is more than fair. I just bought a set of drills from them and I would have paid more at Home Depot, Lowes, or Amazon for an inferior product. Call or stop by in person, this is not an online store in any way.

If the goal is to make customers question every life decision that led them here, Cody is…read moreabsolutely crushing it. I've never seen someone work so hard at doing so little. Every task somehow becomes a side quest, and somehow the final result is still wrong. You could give Cody one simple job with three instructions and he'd find a way to complete the secret fourth option: none of the above. The consistency is honestly impressive. You know exactly what you're getting every time is confusion, delays, and a strong desire to ask, "Is Cody actually working right now?" 10/10 entertainment. 2/10 performance. Would absolutely not recommend if you enjoy things being done correctly. PLEASE FIRE THAT MAN ASAP!!!

Don't have a lot of room so lets make this short. First, I am a Taper and have been taping for the…read morelast 13 years. It has been my pride and honor, my bread and butter, and honestly one of the best things that I have taken the time to learn how to do with my hands. Within the time of my short career, there have been many a stores that I have came across to try out, and to see what they have to offer to make my job easier and more enjoyable, and if you live in the bay area, there really arn't too many places that you can go to for the specialized craft of taping besides AMES. However, among the few and far between each AMES location has its own values, merits, and above all, personality. When you are looking at a full day of sanding, or a full day of running the box, it's the small things that can make or break your attitude for the day. With that said, there are not many places within the U.S. that can measure up to the service, the knowledge, and the good vibes that Estella and Victoria provide. These two are the dynamic duo to the fullest and are honestly the main reason I return to this specific location day after day for all of my taping needs! Estella, the Grand Master of making things happen and knowing all things taping. If you are a taper, or if you know a taper, or if you run your own company of tapers, you know Estella. Estella is the backbone of this location and from the amount of information that flows through her, at times, it feels like this company, I honestly don't know what they would do without her. Ever time I have walked through those doors she has always greeted me with respect and put me up on game from the time to I was an apprentice, to now where I am a journeyman standing on my own. Some of the best customer service in the industry could be learned from this woman. She has always gone above and beyond for her clients and customers, specially when a payment was due! lol But also more than that, whatever special tool that you needed, she was right there on phone trying her best to get it in her shop, whatever new tool that came out, she gave her honest opinion about it. Among other things, she was and always will be the Godmother!! Victoria, next to every Queen is another one that has the others back! and this is what Victoria was to Estella, another Queen that had her back. From what I have seen throughout my years she has really grown into herself and has held her own. Dare I say, Victoria is one of the best assets that this company has. These days, it's hard to find someone with the same spirit, determination, and dedication to her job than Victoria. She has just as much knowledge as Estella and always has a big smile while she is at work. I look forward to conducting my business with her every time I walk through those doors with the name AMES on them. I don't believe that I have ever walked in to the store and they have ever been backed up when it came to paperwork, or inventory. Even if Victoria had a lot of work to do she has always put the customer first which I have always appreciated. She is such a hard worker, I think any company would be lucky to have her. I can see her as being a manager of her own store someday, I know she deserves it! All in all, I have been to all of the AMES locations in the bay area and with everything that I have just wrote I'm sure that you can tell why. This is one of the best locations that AMES has to offer. Superior Drywall Applications (My company) definitely recommends AMES to get all of your taping needs, and this location specifically due to the overwhelming support one receives from these ladies who run this shop. They truly are the best, and any company would be stupid to loose these two wonderful employees willingly, just the same as they would be lucky to have them, in which this case, this company is!
