Yes, the gentlemen who made a point of letting us know he was available to help us find something was friendly and soft-spoken. It's always a plus when staff make sure they acknowledge your presence with a nice greeting. Was it seeing the same exact cheese slicer that I just bought off Amazon last week? Well, a bit maddening but not really it. It was finding two cookbooks my wife and I haven't seen anywhere else. For my wife it was the kind she'd been looking for, a muffin cookbook, Do You Know The Muffin Pan? (what a great title) with a wide range of creative and original ideas spanning savory to sweet, from appetizers to dessert. For me it was finding a Mexican cookbook I didn't know I needed. Now, I've been a Danny Trejo fan a long time. Seen him in the movies and on TV. I knew he owned a popular Mexican restaurant in L.A. because he's guest judged on numerous TV cooking competition shows. But finding his cookbook, Trejo's Tacos, just gave me all the recipes I've always wanted but have never seen anywhere else--at least the way his restaurant prepares them. So, for the joyful experience of culinary discovery alone this store merits five stars. Oh, what was maddening about finding that cheese slicer was that I'd have preferred to have bought it from a local merchant instead of online. At least we bought the cookbooks.

I decided to go with 1st Ave because they were very responsive on the phone and email, and they were able to do the work faster than GS. I also really liked that the people at 1st Ave weren't pushy like at they were at some of the other companies. They came though with all they promised to do - called me when they were on the way to the job site, installed everything so all cabinets and drawers lined up and worked flawlessly, cut the quartz offsite and came back to install countertops, and cleaned up after themselves. I have been recommending them to friends and neighbours, and I would most definitely use them again.

Jon is the equivalent construction person. We got just what we wanted, on time, on budget (except for our changes) and admire the improvement every day.

Not only would we recommend, without reservation, for any remodel project but, for ourselves, we wouldn't use anyone else. GREAT job!!

We bought a built-in large refrigerator from Ferguson in Burlington 5 years ago. Very expensive to…read morebuy. This refrigerator was delivered and installed by Ferguson. This refrigerator recently died and we have bought a replacement elsewhere. On removing the refrigerator, it was discovered that the required anchor anti-tip bolts were never attached! And the installers also broke a back foot! As this refrigerator was top heavy, these anchor bolts are required for safety reasons! And probably the lack of anchoring might have shorted the lifespan of this refrigerator as it began to sit uneven and felt more wobbly over time. It is our suggestion that Ferguson contact all owners that have purchased built-in appliances that require anchor bolts and have them inspected. They can fall over causing severe damage, and could hurt someone. And finally, if we had to design our kitchen over again, we would never do built-in appliances ever again. They look good. But, they are not worth it!
