I am a year round resident in Venice. It really upsets me that some people write a review when…read morethey have one back experience at this store. I have been writing reviews whenever they ask for my opinion and I tell them we need more workers and a larger store. All falls on deaf ears. I hope these negative reviews don't close our store. The employees have always been more then helpful and friendly. Maybe not the new employees but they come around. I realize I have to be patient when I go there, especially when there is a sale. Thank you Just Me, Marie

This is a Joanne's location I have never had a good experience at. The employees are never…read morefriendly to me, but always to the elderly ladies in the store. The last time I was there, I waited while the two employees finished talking to each other about personal things before even calling me up to the register to ring me up. It was a bit rude and she didn't even thank me or even attempt to make small talk. It is also small, cramped and has no planner section, forcing me to not be able to grab any of the Joanne's only items. I wanted to find out if they had a community room a week ago, so I called a few times, never once anyone answering the phone. Order online if you need to make a Joanne's purchase and stay away from the Venice store.

The owner Billy impressed me with his knowledge of his product lines and paint products in general. In my occasional dealings with the big box stores when buying paint, there were often questions they couldn't answer. However, at Venice Paints, Billy is very well-informed and would recommend alternative products if there was a better fit for the project as well as colour recommendations. He knows his stuff and his ability to match colours is almost mystical! He does this all with a smile and a friendly chat and his shop pup Scrappy is pretty dang cute too. Highly Recommended!

Poor quality work as the frames we had given for fixing chipped and came apart in no time. They are also impolite and don't seem to understand how to speak to a customer in a respectful and dignified manner. As far as our family goes, we won't be giving them any more business and will also tell our neighbors (two whom we had referred to them a year ago) about our most horrible experience with this business.

I called to see what's up and to warn them about what just happened and no answer. I tried five times that day. Now it's Saturday and I called another 6 times just for no answer. So in my experience, they sell resealed product.
