I am an amateur boat repair person, relying on YouTube and false confidence. Colton was amazingly helpful with dialing in what I needed, how much I need, how to use it, and how not to overspend. I respect so much that you didn't oversell me and that I believe I've got what I needed. I'll plan to follow in the near future with another review. Thanks. read more

This is an amazing store if you are an artist and want tools to display your art prints. Tish helped me right away. She provided me insight on simpler and cheaper solutions to the project I came in with. Thank you Tish and thank you Tap! read more

This place is wonderful! I brought in a small piece of acrylic hoping it could be cut it to a smaller size for me. Although it was a product I had not bought there (& had a coating on the back we weren't sure would cut cleanly), the gentleman took it to the back and returned it to me a minute or two later smoothly trimmed to my exact dimension. And wouldn't let me pay him for the work. I am a (grateful) customer for life. Thank you!! read more

I needed some sheets of Plexiglass to extend some shelf depths (without replacing the shelves with deeper shelves). These guys 100% ROCKED IT. Within half an hour of walking into the store, they had the pieces cut and ready to go. The guy who helped me (the receipt says Colton, so I assume that's his name) was friendly, knowledgeable, and even suggested a nearby place to have a beer while I waited. Seriously, this was the best shopping experience I've had a quite a while, and I will definitely be back (I do have more shelves that might need extending). Highest recommendation! read more

Thank you Tap for having such wonderful employees. read more

I've been going to Tap Plastics for years. A great selection of cut-offs that I've used for woodworking jigs, router bases, etc. But, it's their service that knocks it out of the park. Yesterday, I needed some pieces for an exterior project at home. I had questions about which plastics are best for outdoor use, and what adhesive I would need. Tisha answered all of my questions, and offered other helpful advice. So, big thanks and kudos to Tisha, who is also very friendly. To spread the appreciation around, where it belongs, I've always had positive experiences with the staff at Tap. No reason not to be a happy customer. read more

Had a piece of plexi cut to fit a custom frame. Got it same day and the piece had to be custom cut as the frame wasn't perfect but was important for me to use. No attitude, reputation until it fit perfectly! Can't say enough kind things about them or the staff! read more

I have been in the customer service for 33 years and the people at Tap Plastics are AMAZING!!! I went in there today, not exactly knowing what I needed. I'm sure I sounded like a co.plete idiot. But Laney and Cody knew exactly what to do and they rocked it! Laney was super friendly and didn't laugh at my inability with a tape measure. And Cody helped me save on cash and was so quick to get me what I needed. Who knew having something custom-made could be so easy and stress-free? I highly recommend them for all your plastic needs!!!!! And thank you to my friend Keelie for recommending them to me! read more

The staff here are always quick to assist with anything you need advice or help with. Prices are really awesome and the turn around time for a piece being cut is almost 0. Been coming here for years and don't see that changing any time soon. read more

You know those times when you're brainstorming for cool stuff to do/make/build and you think "man, life would be great if I had a perfectly clear acrylic cube six inches on a side, a highly durable faux shoji screen, 27 square feet of fiberglass patch, and a roll of blue painter's tape." Well even if not, this place is for you. I went in for a 16 by 20" clear plastic picture frame, but holy crap there was a lot of other stuff in there. If you want a sample of their wares, check out their website: http://www.tapplastics.com/. The only beef I have is that it smells a little funny (plastic-y, go figure) and I can't get that quote from "The Graduate" out of my head. read more
