I stopped in today to wander the aisles in search of a birthday gift for my dad, who has everything... Thankfully Kyle, a friendly young man, asked if I needed help. He suggested a Yeti mug and I ended up purchasing Yeti wine tumblers for both of my parents. They will love them! Kyle then helped me find a hanging flower basket with "traily down thingies", which was the best description I could give of what I wanted. He found the perfect basket, and carried it to my car because it was huge. Awesome service at a local business! read more

Johnsons always has what we're looking for. Love their hardware section. If I'm ever in need of an obscure screw, nut or bolt, I've always been able to find what I'm looking for and they are sold individually too. It's nice to not have to buy a large pack of something if it's a one-off need. read more

I'm supporting more local businesses like Johnson's Home And Garden. It's nice and big with lots of unique things to choose from. I've not yet walked throughout the store to see everything they carry. Super helpful staff and prices are pretty good read more

Make sure you check out Ladies Night in the fall. It's quickly becoming one of my favorite events around town to attend! Ladies night always impresses with a free high end gift at the door, bites, 21+ drinks, sweets, games, prizes and raffles. Plus you get 20% off most anything in the store that night. I'm still in love with my Stihl handheld vacuum that I bought at Ladies Night last year. It really sucks!!! Tickets go really fast because this event is so popular. Watch your email! read more

I'm sending an update because I finally received a response from the owner brad Johnson after two days. In a nut shell he told me to file a claim with my insurance company and they could go after them. Here's a direct quote from his email to me "In addition, when we are asked to load an item (especially a heavy item) in a cargo area of a vehicle, some wear to that cargo area is to be expected." Apparently in their opinion damage to a brand new vehicle is normal and expected. I'm flabbergasted at this response. read more

Johnsons Home & Garden - Hardware Stores Near Me - Maple Valley, Washington

Friendly, knowledgeable staff here. They have most everything I need, at competitive prices. They have suggested several good solutions to problems I've had. read more

Not saying, I don't enjoy the big box stores, but the smaller, locally owned stores like Johnson's are outstanding. Sure they have a lot of the same things that other stores have, but it's the people that make the difference. I've gone in a few times since moving to this area And never been disappointed. I was over by the barbecue section one day, and an employee struck up a conversation about a couple of different smokers and spice blends. It was evident that it wasn't just conversation to him as he knew his stuff and it was great to share a moment with somebody that could actually help me. Easy to find and ample parking. This place is truly a hidden gem in Maple Valley. I highly recommend Johnson's. read more

Very helpful and insightful customer service quite impressed with Johnson's home and garden and would most certainly recommend. read more

See all

This place has the most knowledgeable and helpful staff! It's a fantastic spot to find all your garden essentials.

I appreciate this older salesperson that truly is passionate about his job. An older gentleman helped me In the plumbing area and was so helpful and friendly. read more

This is, by far, the weirdest hardware store I've ever been in. LOVE IT! I ended up here over a year ago by sheer chance. I was in the area for lunch and decided to pop my head in to see what they had. Everything. This hardware store has everything. Very nice garden section overall and a nice selection of pond care needs/plants/decor. Love the Koi pond in the back!! They also have a very nice selection of bird/squirrel feeders and all the related food you'd see along with that. From there I just started walking down the aisles the first time I came. If you have a DIY project and are having a hard time finding something, come to Johnson's because there's an incredibly good chance they're going to have that weird piece you're looking for! Highly knowledgeable employees, as well. I consulted one of them for a plumbing job and he not only had some great ideas how to fix my problem, he knew exactly where to find the pieces, while also explaining it in a manner that allowed me to get the job done. Back in the day I'd go around to different stores, not find what I want, and end up at McLendon's (which is also funky and has its place in the world). Now? It's a little bit of a drive for me, but if I need something I know is unusual Johnson's is my first and only stop! read more

Honestly every time I come here (over the last year 2021) asking for help they look at me like "where is your husband"?! Please know women know how to do handy work and don't look annoyed at me when I'm asking questions like which paint brush would you recommend for the work I'm doing, any question should be welcomed and service should be top no matter who you are servicing...I wanted to support a local business but Home Depot is looking better... read more

I moved to Black diamond in 1974. Johnson's has been my go to hardware store ever since then. They keep the most knowledgeable people on staff. Cindy has been working paint ever since I started going too Johnsons. Doug is a master gardener. Jay has always been willing to go the extra mile to find what I needed. Johnson's do it hardware has always helped me get the job done. I am grateful for their great service. Rick Ryerse read more

I really enjoy having a locally owned hardware store. They really do have a little bit of everything which can sometimes make it difficult to find what you need. If you need help finding said item the employees are friendly and knowledgeable. They have some cute home decor for indoors and outdoors. I have come across the occasional employee that wasn't exactly rude but were very short and wouldn't let me finish my question. However it's only happened twice with a smaller older lady, I haven't seen her in a while so... The also, have a large variety of sodas and snacks near the checkout that sometimes leads to impulse buys of tasty snacks. Because they are local the prices tend to be higher than Lowe's or Home Depot but we enjoy supporting our local business. It's usually our go to hardware store! Check them out over the large chain stores, you won't be disappointed. P.S.check out their selection of spices and rubs, I absolutely love them! read more

Love this store! They have everything you want in a hardware or garden store. Friendly, helpful service. Clean, attractive, well organized. Shelves well stocked. Even in late summer, the garden center was full of beautiful plants for your yard. This is my go-to store for home & garden. read more

Great home and garden center. They had what I needed which big box stores don't carry. They have an abundance of tools & materials. Plants for sale looked healthy and happy. Def will come back again read more

Our go to local little home improvement center. Have always had a good experience with staff here. They repaired our chainsaw which has been working great ever since. They always have the little things we need and we pretty regularly pick up some bird seed too. Enjoy the mom and pop feel vs a Home Depot but have no problem shopping both. Decent plant selection during the. spring and summer season as well. read more

This is a terrific store. I have been shopping at the Johnsons for over 15 years. They have a little of everything, with an enormous section for screws, nuts, and bolts. Their outside garden center has a great selection roses during the summer. The store hires some very knowledgeable people. I sometimes run into issues with my home projects and they can usually locate an employee that has extensive knowledge in whatever I am working on that knows exactly the tools / products I need to get the job done right. I appreciate that if needed, I can shop online and get a curbside delivery. They are pretty quick to fill my orders (I keep them limited to just a few higher priced items) and I have been using that service when COVID came out as well as during the Omicron outbreak. read more

Helpful and friendly employees. I always find what I was looking for. Large selection of plants in the nursery.

Worked here for years and have nothing bad to say about the wonderful staff! I always go in if I need help with any household projects. Janice and Bill are especially helpful! Will always be a johnsons fan. read more

My husband and i have spent thousands of dollars there over the last 30 yrs, but no more. Today my hubby went to Johnson's to get propane. He was wandering around rhe store because they are changing their stock around. He had a can of barbeque rub in his hand and noticed a policeman following him. He went over to the policeman and asked him why. The policeman told him it was because my hubby was wandering around with a can of rub in his hand and didn't have a basket. My husband is 73 yrs old and was clean and dressed in jeans and a shirt. If Johnson's has so much theft they need to harrass senior citizens when they shop there, I'll take my business elsewhere. read more

Several days ago I returned to Johnson's for some hardware. On my prior visit to hardware, Lisa was working and she tried to locate a strap/device to hold furniture to the wall in case of earthquake, but they did not have what I was looking for ( very unusual at Johnson's!). When I returned to the store a couple days later for some hardware items and I again was greeted by Lisa. When I described what I needed, Lisa immediately took me to the appropriate shelves and located exactly what I needed. Lisa was exceptionally personable and helpful which confirms that I will always go first to Johnson's to purchase what I need because Lisa is someone I know will truly help me! read more

I called this store explaining that I had a blank key fob that I wanted to have cut, and the person on the phone assured me that it wouldn't be a problem and they can cut the key for me. They even asked if I needed to re-code the blank key to match the vehicle, and I told them that wasn't necessary. When I got to the store, the employee inside states that they do not/have never cut customer keys, only keys that are sold at the store. I asked, and they do not sell key fobs, just all metal door keys. Very poor customer communication/training all around, I had to go elsewhere disappointed. read more

I related to the woman who was so upset that her 73 year old husband was followed around by the store cop as I'm 74 and wonder around just like him, usually a store employee will come up to me and ask if they can help me as I always look confused and lost. I'm always grateful for the help as they save me a lot of time, usually have a cart though as it gives me something to hold and steady me on my feet. In this new world we live in now that they have taken God out of the schools and government, shop lifting is seen as a right instead of a sin, don't blame them for keeping an eye on you as everyone doesn't know you. It's my favorite store and haven't found any other store that is as helpful and knowledgeable about everything. read more

This place has earned 2.5 stars in my book. Selection is limited on many items. It's more of a small, neighborhood hardware store. Sometimes I find a knowledgeable worker (like the gentleman in the garden center) but sometimes the only worker I can find is an older lady who knows nothing about slug bait. Tonight, I got there a few minutes before closing (pretty sad about loosing my keys)... and the cashier was unwilling/ unable to make me a car key because it takes a few minutes for the electric ones. I guess she can't work a minute past closing. :( read more

I am still amazed every time I walk into Johnson's. They have a great selection of everything, but most importantly, they have a tremendous number of staff on hand that know the store, know hardware and are super helpful. We live midway between Johnson's and Home Depot. It is a no brainer when choosing which store - it's Johnsons. Great service. Great people. Great selection. Same prices. read more

This place is so overwhelming. Spent 20 minutes just taking a lap around the store to see everything they have. I don't think they missed a thing. Paint, flooring, cables, auto care, patio furniture, a huge garden department, wood.... I think they have every home remodeling product available. The aisles are cram packed full from the floor all the way to the top of the displays. I didn't see a single empty spot in the entire store besides the walkways. Quick and convenient, located in 4 Corners across the street from Fred Meyer. Very large store, pretty new. Big parking lot, no issue finding a spot. They have free popcorn when you walk in the door, yay! My only two issues with this place: 1. Customer service. I know I'm young and I don't look like the typical customer in a hardware store....buttttt I just bought a house and I was in looking at buying a TON of stuff for the place, as my boyfriend and I plan on gutting and remodeling the house top to bottom. So. Just because I am young, don't look over me to talk to the older gentleman who looks like he is there for business. I am too. I still work hard and make my money, and I was looking to spend it here. 2. PRICES. They are sooooooo high! Very expensive for my taste - definitely would suggest heading down to Home Depot or even Fred Meyer for some of the basic stuff you need. read more

Amazing service! After Home Depot disappointing me time and time again this weekend and not seem to want my money or my business, I went to Johnson's instead. They want my business from here on out. read more

Johnsons Home & Garden - Hardware Stores Near Me - Maple Valley, Washington

Nice local hardware store that stocked with the basics. They do have a very good selection of screws and bolts. Lumber is very limited. The staff usually friendly and helpful. Prices are a little bit higher than the big hardware store, but I will take it for the convenience. Also, I am happy to support local businesses. This is my go to store for basic hardware needs. read more

I have to increase my review but this is based solely on the lovely ladies at the paint counter. Two summers ago we bought some deck stain and supplies at Johnsons, so this summer when we need to re-stain in, I reluctantly went back for more. The lady who helped me was so helpful and friendly. She walked me all the way back to the electrical tape when I remembered that I needed some. Thank you lovely ladies for your help and attention! read more

Came here to make some copy of keys for my brother and I had a good experience. The guy who helped me was really nice and helped me picked out cool keys. read more

This place is great. Locally owned and managed, great selection, super friendly people. They are a Stihl dealer and have a huge selection. Everyone wore masks, they require masks, they provide complimentary masks as well as hand sanitizer. This has become my local go-to and I don't ever want to go to the orange and blue big box stores again. read more

Shop Local! I love Johnson's and have been going there for 20 years. Johnson's has a great selection of a variety of materials-- I hardly ever can't find what I need. The staff is great and very knowledgeable about nearly every home project you need help with, and will always go out of their way to help the customer. Brad, Jay, Janice, Bill, Doug, and the rest of the gang are simply the tops. Do they have everything you may find at the H.D. or other Big Box stores? Actually, other than cupboards and appliances, they have MORE. Love the local guys and want them to be around another 50 years! read more

During summer my husband and I went to this store to buy things we need. My husband has work computer in his backpack. When we entered to the store, store employee said to my husband "you have to leave backpack in front by casher" I won't leave $2000 work laptop in a car and won't leave with your employee . So we left the store . We went to Ace hardware. read more

i needed a scribe to make lines for drilling stainless steel. so . on my way past, i stopped by the greatest hardware store in the World. they were out of carbide tippedscribes, but they had one made of tool steel which i bought. it worked, im very impressed with the knowledgable staff, the selection is great, and people are friendly. the only problem is i always have to ask where im going to find things. they have that much in inventory. take my word for it. if Johnson's dont have it. you dont need it. read more

Elliott did an outstanding job helping us with the stain we needed for our split rail fence. He is encyclopedic in his knowledge and the stain he recommended turned out perfect for what we wanted. read more

I love this home town hardware store with great service! They're getting ready for the holiday season & stocked up on all kinds of great seasonal plants. Shop local. read more

Absolutely terrific customers service. I would highly recommend this location. Thanks again Johnsons for helping my husband and I begin the beginning stages of painting our home:) read more

Great hardware store with a good selection, and outstanding customer service. I just moved to the area and seem to be at Johnson's every day for something. Saves me the time vs driving to the HD in Covington. I also prefer the friendliness and knowledge of the staff which is far superior to HD. My dog loves it there! read more
