This is the hardware store that every town used to have, until Home Depot and Walmart came in to town... I drove here to pickup some shelving accessories....wowzers, they stock nearly every type of fastener, grommet or accessory that you might need in your life. Wow! They have paint supplies, housewares, hardware, outdoor apparel, barbecue, gardening equipment and accessories, and they even are now carrying maple syrup start-up kits!!! The Staff is friendly and very informative. If you're looking for something for your house come to Rocky's Ace Hardware. I'm sure you won't be let down!

I watched an employee (older man with gray hair and beard) walk up to a customer in line and just…read moreabsolutely berate the poor guy for being in the "wrong line" and acted like the customer was stupid. The customer looked at me with disbelief and walked off. Then my turn was next. I had just purchased an item days earlier that was hundreds of dollars and didn't work right out of the box. I had my receipt with me. He would not exchange it or refund me. He said they had to ship my brand new item out for repair. I don't think I have ever seen such a rude and angry person allowed to deal with the public anywhere. I thought he was joking at first it was so bad.

I absolutely hate having to purchase something at Hammond's in Boothbay. I do it only as a…read moreconvenience. When you enter this store you are never greeted, the numerous employees continue to look down at their desks, doing nothing of note. Someone has set up a rope system, absurd spacing and thick plexi-glass barriers making it even harder to do business here. The prospect of catching covid is equivalent to catching a good deal here. Even the cashier seems to have forgotten to smile or say thank you during my numerous visits there. Now, if it were reasonably priced, I could put up with all the cold shoulders, but, not surprisingly, it's not. I drive to Hancock lumber in Damariscotta and save $$$ and receive a welcome smile. I give Hammond's yard guys a 5 star rating but stay away from the sales office !

Everything went great. 4 weeks ago i had Lowe's come out to my house to look at a pair of exterior sliding doors. The Lowes rep showed up on Monday, took the dimensions and said he would e mail a quote. 2 weeks went by and i called the Lowe's rep and asked about the quote. He said he gad it on his desk and would get it over to me this week. 2 weeks later, still no quote. Called him again on my cell, went to voice mail, let a message, no response. i gave up, called the competition, got a price and ordered the sliding doors. If Lowe's wasn't interested or couldn't do it, fine just say so. Ghosting me is VERY unprofessional.
