M&S Hardware - Tamaqua

I usually hate local hardware stores. They’re almost always over priced. This local hardware store is amazing though. The 10 items I needed were a lot cheaper here than running all the way to Lowe’s. That’s really weird but great. I already knew what I needed but the guy that worked there was able to confirm everything I needed since he was an actual 30 year professional plumber before working there people that work at Home Depot and Lowe’s. Can’t even tell you where the bathrooms at.
Ahhh and all the Milwaukee !!!!

Love shopping here, a bit more expensive than the big box stores, but take into consideration that to save a couple bucks you would have to waste time and gas to travel. Also, the big stores can't touch M&S customer service and care. Always friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable. Always my go to place for nearly everything I could need .
Update: since the pandemic and now the high gas prices, it makes even better sense to shop locally! The price begins to even out if you only need a couple of items for your home repair projects. The nearest big box stores are 14 or so miles away.
Still love the friendly and helpful staff and services they offer.

We are so lucky to have this business in our town ! I went there to get an adaptor for a pipe, took the pipe with me . Glenn I think was his name , helped me so much and even cut the pipe I needed ( which he really did not have to do ) ! Was no trouble for him and was so personable !!
Please Tamaqua - support this business !
I have gone to Lowes on several occasions because it’s on my way and couldn’t even get someone to wait on me - no more !!

Every time I go everyone is pleasant and friendly and they know where to find just what you are looking for.

Love this store they always have what I want

M&S is like and old school hardware store. The staff is always helpful and friendly. They carry the things that you need for the older homes. They are an asset to the Tamaqua area.

Great customer service. A young lady with red hair along with a young man were able to help me find a type of glue that suited my exact needs for my pool pump. Very knowledgeable in the products and excellent personalities.

The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Yes, you will pay more than a big box store, but have you ever asked for help at those stores? They are a family owned and operated business who help in support projects in our community. When you shop local, you support your local economy. It would be nice to see more people recognize these values and shop here instead of the big box stores.

A wonderful local hardware store. They have pretty much anything you will need for any project that good prices and great service and friendly staff

Great store with a great family friendly attitude! Would recommend to anyone to stop in and check them out! Everyone thinks that you can get better pricing at larger chain stores but almost every item I got was cheaper with a knowledgeable staff to boot!!

First off, I love the family friendly atmosphere. Every time we come in we receive quality service. M&S truly embodies what America means. Self sufficiency, hard work, and good old fashion know how. God bless the good people at M&S hardware.

Purchased an Echo chainsaw there and couldn't be happier with the price and service. Very knowledgeable and courteous staff. They maybe more expensive on some items but I prefer going to a store speaking to someone knowledgeable so I don't waste time on multiple trips dealing with staff that are utterly useless. Great job M + S!

Great selection not pushing sales people did I mention great selection price is great
Great place there should be one on every corner

Always great service from the employees. All very helpful and ready to answer your questions.

We were just passing by and needed some hooks to hang pots on comma we walk through the front counter and we were greeted very friendly. He then took us right to right where we needed to go. Cheap fast friendly

Knowledgable friendly staff and a large selection including many parts for older fixtures (ceiling lamps) and the kind of unique bits you can't find at Lowes or Home Depot.

Great service and good prices. Huge selection of Milwaukee tools and boxes. 2 floors to browse.

Knowledgeable and friendly staff, "Mom and Pop" feel, with big box store selection of products, I assume the owner is a good Christian because there is Christian music playing in background! Big plus for me!

Love shopping here and the associates are super friendly and extremely helpful. Local family with local business always a pleasure shopping there!

Great store and people. They have a good selection and are happy to help you.
