Scarboro Hardware

I just finished at Scarborough Hardware. What amazing service I received. Just bought simple things but the experience was made so easy. Many thanks.

I lived “just up the lane” from this wonderful business for more than 20 years and whenever I was building anything, doing bits of handiwork around the house or tending to our pool it was literally a 2-3 minute walk if and when I needed anything, which was always in stock. I moved approx 3km away 5 years ago and now live a 5 minute walk from Bunnings, nonetheless, rather than walk to the conglomerate that try as they do to be “friendly to the locals”, I either drive, ride my motorcycle or my e-trike up the hill to Scarboro Hardware. Just one little anecdote to describe how much I relied on and will miss them when they close. One time after hitting a roo and knocking the headlight and it’s fixtures off my motorcycle whilst down south on holiday, unsure of how to fix it all back on, I called in to ask Jarrad how to go about it. Without a thought, he got some, nuts, bolts and screws together and fixed it for me in a matter of minutes. Alas, it’s terribly sad state of affairs when locals businesses have to close due to rezoning and the attraction of the big dollars from developers.

Best service, well trained staff. Spacious store and a good range of materials. My preferred hardware.

These guys are great. Check in here first before you bother with the big retailer down the road and avoid the hassle of the car park. It isn't a big store but they have most things you need, and I've always had great in person help with what I'm looking for.

A unique local hardware store with expert knowledge and not afraid to recommend a competitor. Pity they are closing down.

What a delightful find. An old style country hardware store with excellent stock range and pleasant, helpful, and knowledgeable staff. Obtained difficult to find rust restorer primer while visiting from Geraldton. A pleasure to explore.

Great service, kowlagable and friendly staff. Great selection of things you really need and most important at a very fair price. Highly recommend.

I have driven past SH so many time over the last 5 years and thought hmmm I should go in there and try them out but up until Friday of last week I had not mainly because a family member works for Bunnings. I can categorically say the experience was amazing the service was impeccable and yes it was significantly cheaper. I called them today I asked if they had a particular item their response was no however she provided me with another local supplier and they had what I wanted for a price, yes again, cheaper than Bunnings. Good on the locals.
