Kramer’s Paint & Hardware

Bob the owner was very knowledgeable. When i couldn’t figure out the size of my hot water heater (pipe) fitting, he gave me the two common choices to try. I returned the one not needed with no problems. BTW, I only paid for 1 of 2 initially. Nice

Last week I was visiting with a friend in Queens and was telling him about some part and tool I needed to diagnose and fix a problem with my ceiling fan and bedroom light. I had been to Home Depot in Edison a few weeks earlier but had the usual problem there; finding help and then when finding the help, finding that the help was of very little help. My friend enthusiastically suggested I check out this Kramer neighborhood store that he frequents.
I am so glad I did. The gentleman who assisted me, I believe he is the owner, was terrific. Not only did he have exactly what I needed but he was extremely patient in explaining how to use the tools and make the repairs. He even said to call him if I was having a problem.
That was no BS because things didn’t go smoothly and the gentleman whose name was Bob guided me thru everything. I only wish there was a place like this closer to home. I’d probably become more of a DIY. For a relatively small place, they seemed to have everything and if they don’t they said they can get it. Almost makes me want to move back to the 5 boroughs.
