I just had to share this heartwarming experience we had at Sorensen Ace Hardware! My toddler is…read moreabsolutely obsessed with construction equipment--he spots every dump truck, excavator, and backhoe wherever we go. We pass by Sorensen Ace every day on our way to and from daycare, and there's one piece of equipment he's particularly smitten with, which we've affectionately named Bert. Today, on our way to feed the ducks along the canal, we decided to pop into the yard to check out all the machinery, including Bert. To our delight, a wonderful gentleman who was working nearby noticed my son's excitement. He generously invited us over and allowed my little one to climb onto the excavator! Watching him push and pull all the handles, moving the equipment back and forth with sheer joy was priceless. This kind man truly made my son's day--and possibly his entire week--by letting him "ride" Bert and explore all the controls. I didn't catch his name, but he is an absolute gem! Thank you for your kindness and for making a little boy's dreams come true. We can't wait to come back and visit Bert again! Highly recommend stopping by for anyone with little construction enthusiasts!

Instead of Sorensen's for a propane refill, I suggest Tractor Supply. Tractor Supply allows you to…read morepay outside after your tank is full, so you don't need to make 2 frustrating trips inside, like Sorensen's does. Also Tractor Supply was considerably cheaper, $3.69 a gallon or roughly $18 to fill a standard 4.5 gallon tank. Sorry to say, Sorensen's doesn't have its propane act together. Tractor Supply does. For whatever reason, Tractor Supply (Los Banos) is not listed as a propane refiller on Yelp. Don't believe Yelp.

I have called them 5 times and they refuse to even come to my house and look at the problem. Lance told me it is my problem, not his! He said my wood is defective!? And he told me that and he has never even come back to look at the problem. He just refuses to come back and even look at it. I paid them $8500 to paint the house and once the check cleared they were gone for good. Terrible. Beware. 3/2/26 - I just read Lance's response to my review. He says the pictures I posted were from before he painted. Not true. I just posted an additional picture showing today's date from time.gov and you can see the quality of work I have on my house today. The fact is that Lance has never come to my house to see the quality of work his people did on my house. So, he has assumed I posted old pictures.

Huge shoutout to Jesus the Assistant Manager and Efrain at Sherwin Williams in Merced…read more I came in with a lot of questions about a previous paint issue and Jesus walked me through everything with patience and real expertise. He didn't rush me he made sure I fully understood what happened and how to fix it the right way. That level of service is rare. On top of that Efrain mixed an old gallon of paint I brought in which was completely above and beyond. Efrain was also very helpful and professional throughout the whole visit. Because of this experience this will be my go to spot for paint from now on. Highly recommend.

It is almost impossible to get an identical match from a company that has painted previously. I brought in a sample. Ricky matched it identical, one of the best matches that I've had in my 38 years as a painter and a local contractor (Palma Painting). Ricky has gone over and beyond matching a color so well cuts down the time that we take to touch up walls that were previously painted with a different company. Normally, when someone matches a color for you, you have to paint the entire wall corner to corner just to make it look right with Ricky's knowledge and expertise. He matched it so well that I was able to get in and out of my project, save time, and help my profit margin. Thank you very much, Ricky. You're the best.
