Hirshfield's Maplewood Contractor Service Center

"When I need to match stain, Hirshfields in Maplewood is the “go-to!”"

"I have been painting professionally since 1999. My partner Jeanne and I have applied many brands of paint. We have been to all the "big brand" stores and the "big box" stores during our career. Hirshfield's Maplewood has been our favorite paint supplier for the last 15 years. A more personal atmosphere, sound advice when needed, great product selection (we prefer Platinum Ceramic Matte over all others)."

"Excellent service. I had several questions & all were answered. Reasonable pricing too. Less than the same product brand at a wood workers store I've been going to."

"I would like to thank Jake, Adam, and the rest of the staff at the Maplewood Hirshfields Contractor Flooring store for taking a significant amount of time helping me as a customer/ commercial floor care refinishing contractor spec out the various materials needed for durable floor coatings. I was originally referred to Hirshfields by a product matter specialist and salesman from another paint company. He told me that Rust Oleum industrial coatings perform better and cost less than any other brand he has dealt with. He wasn't kidding. Specifically, I was having performance issues with 3 other brands of floor coatings in the commercial restaurant/cafeteria/dining as well as commercial and residential car traffic garages. I switched to Rust Oleum industrial coatings Sierra S60 for the commercial bar/restaurant/dining market and and have had no issues with peeling/chipping from bar stools/table legs since. I switched to Rust Oleum industrial coatings 9100 for commercial & residential car traffic garages that has high ASTIM (american society of testing materials, an independent laboratory who tests and rates industrial products and materials) durability rating and malleability with thermal shock (this means that in the winter cold it is engineered to be less likely (but not guaranteed) to peel and crack as the concrete expands and contracts in brittle cold temperatures. Another mystery challenge I have solved by working with rust oleum industrial coatings is the color flecking or paint chips you frequently see in residential Epoxy garage floors. I have seen a substantial number of garage floors that costed thousands to install fail within 18 months JAKE explained that the color chips are made from 2 types of materials. They are acrylic and vinyl. Acrylic, the same as interior wall paint offers decorative effects but isn't suited for industrial applications. Vinyl however is. To understand this, imagine if you owned a repair garage, paid big bucks for a washable maintainable epoxy floor system and dropped a cars brake rotor on the floor. Acrylic will fail chip every time, Vinyl may not. Vinyl is the same material you see in grocery stores so you can see how it performs better than paint chips. Rust oleum industrial coatings has an ASTIM rating spec sheet on all their industrial products so you the consumer or contractor can know what you are telling your customers preventing costly lawsuits and redo's. I would also like to thank the Downtown Minneapolis commercial store as well as the Plymouth location next to Home D. as well as Paul K from Rust Oleum tech support for their helpful knowledge. It should be noted that Paul K is the starting point for product applications to a specific project. He is the regional product matter specialist and go to guy who is fluent, can briefly discuss your matter and tell you which store and store agent can help you through your project. It should also be noted that I have posted some before and after photos referencing the products I have used. There are 2 galleries. In the first, we have a restaurant cafeteria with failing floors. I removed the old failing coating and applied a new brilliant color using Sierra s60 In Gallery 2 a do it yourself that was slippery and failed tyhrough peeling was ground and recoated with Rustoleum industrial 9100, and vinyl broadcast chips And for the record, no I don't work for any of these companies, my reviews are intended to help the local community. Thanks for reading and like my review as helpful plz."

"I called Ashley from your Maplewood Store about needing some stain to match my cabinets that were scratched. After talking to the place I purchased the cabinets to the headquarters of the place that manufactures the cabinets I got no help. Talking to Ashley was the best thing that happened to me all day !! He listened to me and told me to bring in the kick plate to see if he could match the stain. I went in the next day since Ashley was working and he took the kick plate and some stain and matched it so closely that I could not tell the difference. He was pleasant on the phone and in person, knowledgeable and very helpful. I think this man is such a stellar employee. In today's world you don't find people like this !! He is an asset to your store and company. You are lucky to have him. I don't often write reviews however this man deserves one !! THANK YOU ASHLEY !"
