So, I figured I'd stop in and see if they carried the item and cost for reference. Not only did they carry the particular item, but it was a fraction of the cost. Needless to say, we made the purchase. Aside from this specific example, this store has (at first glance) almost any tool you could dream of. I would highly encourage someone looking for tools to drop in. Hopefully you find what you're looking for. I'm so happy I came across this store and, had I know, would have shopped here for tools sooner.

I tried for over a month working with both customer service and the installer to come inspect the flooring. Threshold incorrectly installed, scratch on the floor, inexpert caulking were the headline (but not the only) problems. Installer finally showed up, then took an age to "file a report" ( I had already provided pictures). There was no dispute about these complaints. But no amount of phone calls or emails could prompt faster action. It became my full time job to follow up. Even now, as I sit here, some 6 weeks after install, the "approval" has been issued by LL flooring to make corrections but I still can't get a date. My advice is to avoid the LL Flooring third party installers at all costs! LL likes to play this both ways--they seem to have control over the installers for some purposes but not others. Regardless, they either can't or won't effectively and efficiently resolve issues with the install.

Generator Installed Incorrectly, Not Reliably Operational, and No Accountability…read more We had an extremely poor experience with Martin Porter and Clark Sales & Service. Martin was our primary point of contact and the person we relied upon to advise us regarding the appropriate Generac system, generator placement, available options, covered circuits, and coordination of the installation. Our 26 kW Generac generator was installed in approximately July 2025. During the following year, it experienced repeated operational problems and failed us during two power outages. When we needed the generator in May, it did not operate because of a failed circuit that the technician described as an extremely unusual problem for a generator of that age. The more serious problem occurred during an extended power outage and heat wave. Although we had specifically agreed that our well pump and HVAC would be backed up, neither operated on generator power. We were left without water or air conditioning during the outage, creating exactly the health and safety situation we purchased the generator to prevent. Martin did arrange for the electrical contractor to return and correct the problem. The electrician initially appeared to believe that the well pump and HVAC had been connected properly, but later claimed that those items had been omitted from Martin's work order. Regardless of how the mistake occurred between Clark Sales & Service and its contractor, the critical circuits we expressly requested were not connected, and no effective quality-control testing was performed before the system was placed in service. After completing the corrective work, the contractor did not test the system to confirm that the well pump and HVAC operated on generator power. We later tested the system ourselves with a different electrician and confirmed that the corrected system was working properly. We have received no meaningful acknowledgment or apology from Martin or Clark Sales & Service for the incorrect installation, lack of testing, or substantial inconvenience and physical discomfort it caused. After the corrective work was completed, I directly asked Martin to call me and acknowledge what had happened. He did not respond and has not communicated with me since. We also would have considered a larger, whole-home Generac system, but Martin did not adequately explain or present those options. We now intend to upgrade through another provider because we no longer have confidence in Martin Porter or Clark Sales & Service. Based on our experience, we cannot recommend Clark Sales & Service. Anyone using this company should insist on comprehensive testing under simulated outage conditions before accepting the installation.

Long story short, I didn't see a difference. And since I already knew the paints I wanted, I was good.
