What a great resource! They repair windows, sharpen knives, and carry things like skeleton keys that you can’t find anywhere else. Always cheerful and ready to help.

Above and Beyond
I bought a push cart for my grandson and have been trying to assemble it for days. Technically not that hard to assemble, but some of the screws fit so tight I hit a road block. Even borrowing a power tool didn't help. I might have stripped one of the screws.
No problems. Vanderhoof Hareware to the rescue. I took it over to them and asked for help and Thomas said he would happy to finish it for me.
Thank you Thomas!!! Always friendly, helpful and very knowledgable.

A wonderful, family-owned store. Cookware, snowshovels, batteries at Costco prices. Knife sharpening. Screws and nails and BBQs and small appliances and tools. Patient, expert advice on how to fix your busted whatsit. Not the cheapest, but definitely the best. They always have what I need.

Thomas and Scott once again masterfully re-screened our patio sliding door and added hardware cloth on the outside to protect the door from dogs nails and soccer and basketballs! Genius!

A great family owned business. Excellent service and knowledgeable staff put them head and shoulders above every other hardware store. Since they are affiliated with True Value, the prices are good also as they buy in bulk with the big dogs.

This is an excellent store with a lot of history here. Members of the original family work here and they have great stories and products. Well laid out for the locals and travelers as well. Definitely worth a visit.

Their slogan can't be more true. If they don't have it, you likely don't need it. I've lost many bets with wife betting that they wouldn't have something only to find out that they have it. Forget Amazon. This is the true everything store.

Ordered online for curbside pickup. Ordering was easy. Not a lot of parking by the store (more in the rear) and there are only a few spots in the front if you were able to snag them. They brought out the light bulbs I ordered and put them in my car. They even wrapped the four sets of two bulbs together in plastic so they would stay as one package and taped the receipt to it. Well done. Thank you.

This is a superb store with superb service. Hard to pick an example of their outstanding help from so many instances over the years. They sharpen blades, fix broken lamps, talk through and solve myriad home-owner problems . Once needed to move some large (100 pound) stones and the owner insisted on lending me his hand cart rather than having me purchase one. One of the true benefits of living in Concord is having easy access to Vanderhoofs. I love the store and the staff.

I have been going to Vanderhoof's for 25 years and they are just the best- great service, friendly people , and they have everything! Plus Scott will fix anything that is wrong with appliances, screens ,you name it. I wouldn't go anywhere else even if prices might be cheaper at big box stores. Vanderhoofs is an institution in Concord. Lets keep it there!!
A year later its still the best !!

Recently purchased a new Webber grille from Vanderhoof's. For same price as big box store, they delivered the fully assembled grille right to our front door. Great service and we are supporting a local Concord business. Don't be fooled by how compact the store is - they have everything! Store is very clean and organized and the service cannot be beaten.

Once again, absolutely outstanding service and knowledge of all things hardware. I can call Scott or Thomas , place an order for pick up and get a text back within minutes that items ready for pick up! You can't get that at a mass merchandiser. Family owned, local residents and awesome service!
Lois Suarez February 6, 2021
Absolutely wonderful, great working keys and wonderful snow shovels along with a requested demo on how to use a newer type of shovel. Thomas and Scott are the best!

Absolute tops. Best hardware store I’ve seen on both coasts. Family in California wishes they could clone this in San Francisco. Thanks Scott for the help and advice today!

Had everything I needed, great friendly personnel. Easy to support local and no need to go elsewhere.

Very helpful staff here. They are always wearing masks and have curbside pickup.

As always Vanderhoof's was awesome... Scottie and Thomas are incredibly helpful. Got a 20x20 square of hardware cloth cut to size for a very modest price. Just one piece perfectly cut no need to purchase a big roll.

I was in the area doing a job when I suddenly realized that I needed some junction boxes. Called around a couple places and nobody had them. Called Vanderhoof’s and surprisingly they had exactly what I needed. The gentleman was very helpful over the phone and was extremely polite when I came in! Great prices great customer service! Five star all the way :-)

Vanderhoof Hardware is the best hardware store ever! Not only do they have everything that you might need tucked away (just ask), they will teach you how to use the tool you just bought, or help figure out what is the best approach to solving a home repair problem. Recently I went in with the problem that my kittens were jumping on top of my parrot's cage and sticking their paws through the bars. Scott not only had some ideas for what he could create with plexiglass to keep the kittens out, his creation was ready for pick-up by the time I got home. Creative problem solving coupled with amazing service and smiles. Local, family-run businesses are such a pleasure to support.

We recently bought a 150 year old house in town and are doing some minor work ourselves. We've been into the store a handful of times and have been really pleased with the service. Scott is knowledgeable, incredibly helpful and really patient with our questions. As first-time home owners, I'm sure we are asking "silly" and "simple" questions.... but he helps talk us through things, giving us the confidence to proceed!
