In particular, on a Sunday, I had a paint issue on a $100,000.00 remodel project and Elizabeth and regional manager Sarah Stewart handled with expediency and professionalism. I've been working on projects with Sarah a couple times a year, every year. She is the Goddess of information when it comes to paint. I'm so grateful for all she's done. The correction she came up with has my customer elated. Thank you Sherwin Williams for superior service and staff.

In all my years of working with them I've had only a couple mix-ups which they took care of without any hassle.

I selected a color and they prepared a half-pint sample so I can paint it on my wall to see how it looks!

I have come in here twice. Both times, they were friendly and extremely helpful!…read more I will be having the exterior of my house repainted this summer. The biggest fear was picking the "right" colors. There are just too many colors to choose from. Also, most people, like me, do not know how different colors work (intuitively or theoretically). So, I just didn't know where to begin! That said, I walked in here without knowing ANYTHING (other than wanting to repaint the exterior). Casey was amazing. She listened to me carefully (although I was not very much of help as I didn't know what I wanted myself). She picked out a couple of brochures and directed me to this very useful binder "Color Inspiration and Ideas," which shows you common color combinations (see my photos). They have a very spacious showroom. I just sat there and went through the binder, picking out combinations I liked and excluding ones I didn't like. While I was studying the binder, she checked on me a couple times but she gave me the "space" I needed. She also directed me to the Benjamin Moore website to try out the color combinations I liked online. This is an amazing tool. You can upload a picture of your house and try out different colors on your house (and it's free)! After trying out many different combinations of colors online, I came in here again to look at the colors I liked. I was able to pick up some paint swatches to bring home. The lady who helped me was very pleasant and was able to find the colors I wanted quickly. I'd thought I would need Photoshop to "virtually" paint my house to see how it would look, but, thanks to Casey, I was able to do it for free on the Benjamin Moore webpage ("Personal Color Viewer"). So far, this potentially scary project has been very pleasant. In fact, I have learned a lot thanks to Stockton's Paint!

These guys eased our minds and were a tremendous help.

They weren't that busy and with four people behind the counter, they made it clear that they didn't give a damn about me or my gallon of paint. No thanks, I'll take my business elsewhere.

I took it home and started to try and suck up wet leaves and it kept getting clogged. I finally gave up. and just raked the leaves. The clerk never did tell me that this has a mulcher and works best with dry leaves. I have a blower vacuum that just sucks up anything at home. I went to return it, because it wasn't doing what I was told it would and since I don't live there, I couldn't wait for the leaves to dry. I was told by the same guy that sold it to me and one of the younger clerks that I can't return it. They gave me all kind of excuses and I finally gave up. I will never shop there again. I would not have had this head ache if I had gone to Home depot or Lowes. At least they know what they are selling.

We asked an employee to help us get the boxes out because we're both old and did not trust ourselves putting it in the cart. The employee, I believe his name was Matt or Mac (another employee called his name from afar but his jacket was covering his name) and he rolled his eyes, sighed, and told us he had a million things to do but would send someone else over. It would've taken all of 10 seconds to help us. He walked away before we could even try and explain what we needed. After waiting for another employee to come by, nobody ever did so my husband went and found someone. This man had the worst body odor I have ever smelled. I had to walk away. My husband and I both could smell him from 6+ feet away. After we walked away, we overheard an employee use the term "beaner" while talking about someone. I am absolutely disgusted, that is hateful behavior and that employee should be ashamed of himself. We WON'T be back.
