Kelly-Moore Paint Store

I have to say again this is the best store.
I’m painting old doors, some have oil based under peeling latex. Yikes. Their primer worked amazing to reseal the oil based stuff.
I wanted durability without shine, I hate semi gloss, and their eggshell dura poxy paint is working amazing.
It was drying a little sketchy but it looks amazing now — perfect protection for non perfect old doors. Best paint ever !

Recently we wanted to refresh our exterior house paint, but learned that the color we chose years ago was no longer made. Since we didn’t have any of the old paint left, we brought along a decorative item that had been painted to match the house to the Kelly-​Moore store on Campbell Avenue.
Israel Garcia, the assistant store manager, was really helpful. He prepared a custom quart of paint for us to take home as a test sample, and it matched PERFECTLY. We really appreciated the time he took with us that day, discussing other paint projects we had in mind and making recommendations without pushing the products.
It was a pleasant surprise to have such a warm and hospitable experience in a paint store. Israel obviously enjoys working with people and helping them find what they need. There was no up-​selling, just straightforward recommendations about what products might work best for the different projects we are considering.
We will definitely be coming back to this Kelly-​Moore location.

This store is amazingly helpful! They have graciously donated to our non-​profit, Playworks for many low-​income school beautification projects. Thank you from us and from the students!

The people in this store go out of their way to provide excellent service.

As a painter, I’ve been going to this store for about one year almost every day. I go to this store even though there’s another KM nearby my house because they have excellent customer service.
The store manager, Mark is a very diligent guy. He opens the store well before the opening hour, ready to sell.
He is super friendly, always smiling. He’s always willing to help out. For example, my experience with other store is that they don’t usually offer same day color match. But this store, they try if I really need it the same day. I like that Mark makes an effort to help me, with friendly manner. I feel very welcomed here.
Mark is very knowledgeable of KM product, like what type of material to apply, and how. He also tells me what promotions is going on and how I can save money. He patiently answers to my questions.
The staffs are helpful. I recommend this store, thumbs up!

Employees smoking near the store entrance is a poor show. I don’t care what transpires inside, nasty smoke that I have to walk through ruins everything. I think I will go to another KM to get paint from now on. Clean it up KM!

I went in today and the staff was fantastic! One immediately offered help and gave me great advice on the project I was working on. The other perfectly color matched a sample I had brought in. I heard about an exciting new color line up that was coming in this week so I’ll be back next week to check it out!

So I’m working on some trials in my house for some children’s room murals and I wasn’t quite sure where to start. I have done murals before but never with wall paint. I came in to Kelly Moore the other day and was lookin around at paints and plastic and tape and such and then a clerk behind the counter asked if I needed help. I told him what I was getting into and that I was just looking for some prep stuff. His name was James and he was very nice and friendly.
He pointed me to some cheap plastic that would cover the floor and gave me tips on how I could extend its lifespan to reuse it multiple times (since I’m just starting and not looking to pay for high quality at the moment). He talked to me about the different types of tape there were, why X was better than Y and why Y wasn’t as good as X.
He talked a little bit about colors with me but never pushed for me to buy any. He gave me some color charts to take home and look thru. He told me he was a canvas painter himself and because I am an art student, we got to talking.
He talked to me a little about brushes but, again, knowing that I’m starting and assembling piece by piece he never pushed for me to buy anything other than what I came for, tape and plastic. I felt it was more for my own knowledge rather than for his commission, which is sometimes hard to find these days.
I give Kelly Moore 5 stars because the customer service was spectacular. I never felt pressured to buy or upgrade and James was very knowledgeable about the paints and other products. The paints are a little more expensive than other places so I will probably go elsewhere (unless there’s an awesome sale) but I will definitely come back for some more prep items.

Great help! I needed to match a color and Mark, the manager, personally helped me. He has the expertise and he went the extra 10 miles to make sure I got the match I needed. Friendly and honest, too. I highly recommend them!

Great service! I’m a homeowner that is always painting something. Today I went in to Kelly Moore to pick up some paint for my ceiling. Mark was great! He was super helpful, friendly, and knowledgable. I would definitely recommend this store to someone who needs advice about painting/​colors, etc. The guys know what they are talking about.

take from a licensed painter that’s used Kelly Moore and other brands for many years — Kelly Moore is a rip off. Their paints are not rated very well by consumer reports and yet they charge prices that are as high as anywhere you will find. I constantly have to scratch my head when forced to purchase a can of paint from them. Want a color match? be prepared to wait several days. My advice is to use Home Depot Behr products — the paint is superior in everyway and the cost is up to 50% less depending on what discount you may or may not get at Kelly Moore.
No one at Home Depot is on commision — that’s not the case at Kelly Moore — where they have all kinds of incentives to charge you as much as they think they can get away with.

Oh Yeah! I love being the first! Alright, so if you hate Home Depot down the street, which it appears most people do based on their star rating and you need anything paint-​centric, come here instead. The boys are always nice and will actually give me an opinion. I am ALWAYS painting and never once have I ran into rudeness, but 4 out of 5 times at the big hardware store on Hamilton, someone will leave me annoyed upon check-​out. Save yourself piece of mind and go to Kelly Moore instead.
