Pennwood Paint & Supply Co — Local services in Wilkinsburg

After standing at the Home Depot paint window for half an hour without assistance, I decided to check out an independent store for that 'personal touch'. At Pennwood Paint & Supply, I found it.

Coming in as a total novice, the owner patiently walked me through several techniques(going so far as to pull some brushes off the wall and show me different strokes), went over the differences in the paints, and actually talked me OUT of some extra stuff I didn't need.

A perfect place to get everything you need for a paint job. Whether you are a novice or a pro, you are going to get honest advice, no silly gizmos, and great prices. John and his staff are always helpful and make me and my kid feel welcome every time...It's a perfect little shop as is, but if he ever decided to expand to become a small hardware shop, I'd be there once a week like everyone else in the neighborhood with a...
