Address map 550 Carpenter LaneAfter I had spent $8000-$9000 dollars in the store with the previous owner, Todd who was awesome, the new owners accused me of trying to rip them off $35 for returning my paint sample strip and wanting my deposit back without a receipt. I asked them to look up my account and they then told me I was not in the system and to please leave their store. They where very abrasive and I would say out right nasty, to say I was shocked is an understatement. With their attitude towards past clients I cannot see them staying in business for very long and I would recommend finding some where else to shop.

I was impressed by the owners' knowledge of both green and conventional home products. Did you know that the so-called "sustainable" bamboo flooring sold at the conventional DIY stores is made from the weaker part of the plant, and can withstand only a fraction of the PSI that green bamboo can? Plus, while the plant itself may be considered sustainable, there is no guarantee that it was harvested in an eco-friendly, or even people-friendly, manner.
