I am in LOVE with this store. I can not say enough good about it. I usually use big box stores for…read morewhat I need and that's because I know what I need and what I'm getting. When it comes to staining...well let's say I am the clueless wonder. Their customer service is excellent....both super friendly and knowlegeable. Bring in a sample of what you want matched. Bring in a sample piece for them to use to make the match and they will match it dead nuts on. I never tried oil based stains as I thought they were so much harder to work with. WRONG!! OMG...their stains are virtually foolproof. Not even kidding when I say they are pretty much idiot proof. They go on so smooth it's like magic. Prices are super reasonable. You pay no more there than you would at a bigger box store and on many items like good brushes they're cheaper. I can not say enough good about this store and its employees. I would recommend them hands down to anyplace else. My days of water based stain and poly and being pissed and frustrated are over. Oil based and custom mixed colors all the way now thanks to Hallman-Lindsay.

Best prices on painting accessories in Janesville, hands down. There's almost always specials on…read morePurdy and Wooster brushes. Only place in Janesville I know of that has Tung Oil (not "tung oil *finish*" - which is tung oil and poly). Their house brand rags are the best I've ever used - if you do a lot of wiping, buy your rags here. Their bags of rags are almost entirely made of the rags you pick through other bags to find when you want a decent one for your project. The sell Jen brand foam brushes for what you'd pay on Amazon. (Jen is probably tied for first place for best foam brushes. The ones at the box stores are essentially unusable.) The only negative-in-a-totally-selfish-way thing I have to say about them is they carry every paint thinner in existence from denatured alcohol to naptha to the most uncommon ones, but they don't carry odorless mineral spirits. Which is understandable because most pros prefer naptha for application because it dries faster and paint thinner for cleaning because it cuts better but I'm a sensitive fucking snowflake and need my thinner's stink removed. Their paints are as good as anyone else's top tier, with competitive prices, but if you're not a contractor it's the hidden costs of painting that really hit you and their prices on those are far lower than the competition for either the same or a better product (drop cloths, painter's pal liners, brushes, foam brushes, sandpaper, etc). Working with wood, I use a lot of oils, poly, spar, rags, foam brushes, and sandpaper. I know the prices on Amazon and at Home Depot, Wal-Mart, Sherwin-Williams, and Farm & Fleet for all of them. H-L is the place to go. Also their staff is ridiculously helpful if you need it. And they carry Cabot wood stain and General Finishes milk paint - both of which are top end for what they do. 5/5 all day.

The staff is far more knowledgeable and patient than the folks at the big-box stores. They are super friendly, and they really take the time to help you. They have high quality products at competitive prices. I love the fact that they carry zero-VOC paint. The big-box stores claim to have this, but if you read the labels, you'll find that it is really low-VOC paint. Not the same thing....still contains carcinogens. Another thing I like about Lloyd's is the fact that they keep a record of the paints you purchased and what room you were painting at the time. So when your kid draws on the walls or you accidentally ding the wall while moving furniture, you can just go back to Lloyd's, and they'll mix up a bucket of the same color. Three cheers for Lloyd's! My family has been visiting them my whole life, and we're never disappointed.

I recently purchased over $550 worth of paint. Which did not get much let me tell you (this was for…read morean apartment to give you an idea of prices). The paint quality was certainly not higher than the insult and poor customer service I was given in return. One gallon of paint was not correct, when I took it into the store to question it, I was told nothing was wrong with it. THAT might have been acceptable except they didn't even open it to check. REALLY? ? YOU NEED TO LEARN ABOUT CUSTOMER SERVICE. Never again, the paint is not worth the cost and combined with being insulted I will never purchase again.

Odell picked up the phone after a couple rings introduced himself, thanked me for calling and asked what project he could assist with. After the Q&A I went in to purchase supplies for our remodel and Odell greeted me as soon as I walked in. Odell made my experience a smooth one with no up selling only recommending the supplies I needed with each having an explanation of why he recommended each item. Thank you Odell and Sherwin Williams for the outstanding customer service and quality products.

However, the girl who was helping me, was very informative and let me know that this brand was now carried by a different company.

They didn't make a sale this day, but I will definitely be back for new colors for another room!!
