Homedepot or Lowes?

[Account Closed]

Im just curious on which store you all use for your rental property material and why and what you buy there?

For me it is a combination of the two.

Homedepot:
For paint I use Kilz Pro-X dead flat, all fans and light fixtures, all plumbing(bigger selection)

Lowes:
I use there tile and backspalsh. I feel they have a much bigger selection.

Im missing a few but these are my major ones.

Home Depot for me. I quickly realized that Lowes fails on multiple fronts

For instance, the free samples of hardwood at home depot cost $0.25 each at lowes.

They gave me the wrong paint and I had to prove to them that it was their mistake. Once I did, they gave me replacement paint on the cheap, but it was a pain. I also bought a worklight that failed 4 times before I finally got one that did work.

Rob K, I stole your comment from another thread about naming it "Blowes" and it has spread like wildfire throughout my network. Thanks for the priceless comment!
