Milton Village Hardware

I was visiting Boston for a week and decided to look up an Elite Stihl dealership after a quick Google search I found Milton Village Hardware store, located on the outskirts of Boston near the end of the Red Line. A quick transfer onto the free Mattapan Trolley took me to Milton where a 5min walk found me standing outside this historic hardware store which I have been reliably informed by the staff (Colby & Dan) has been on the same site since 1918 (wow…that fact alone was worth the journey). On entering this store, it feels like stepping back into the past before the days of the poor service big box stores (no names mentioned here to avoid litigation!) you know who I am talking about. The service was immediately first class from the minute I entered the store with Colby being truly impressed with my impeccable British accent…. Ha ha ha. They are definitely missing a trick here because it would not have been apparent to your average customer that downstairs there was a hidden treasure trove of Stihl products all displayed with military precision. The most dangerous thing to do as a consumer is to go into an Aladdin’s cave of your favourite products with no good reason other than having an inquiring mind. I ended up fortunately finding two items that I actually needed a new pair of Stihl High Performance PRO Gloves and a Silky Gunfighter Professional Saw….Yeah Baby. This shop is a must for anyone in Boston and the surrounding areas who wants that personalised level of customer service, for all repairs and day to day servicing of your Stihl equipment and much more. Thanks for taking the time Colby & Dan for your excellent customer service, fantastic hardware store, but definitely consider putting up a sign to let new customers know what treasures are hidden in the basement.

They are knowledgeable and friendly. They have just about anything you could need for your home, the quality of the small engine repair is unmatched. Also, they'll make you a key, repair a lamp, sharpen your knives and lawnmower blades or repair a screen.

I have purchased many power tools from Milton Village Hardware over the years and have been completely satisfied with the products. There repair and service center is outstanding. Colby is an extremely skilled technician and the repair prices are reasonable.
