In-house services

Six reasons people drive past the big box.

Everything below is done in-house by people on the payroll — not shipped out, not subcontracted, not run through a call center.

We sell things, but we also do things. Here are the six services on the Dickman Road floor that have kept Battle Creek homeowners, contractors, and property managers walking past the big-box parking lot since 2008. Everything below is done in-house by people on the payroll — not shipped out, not subcontracted, not run through a call center.

Paint & Color Matching

Bring in the swatch, the chip, a scrap of trim, the lid of the old can, or a photo on your phone — we'll match it on the spectrophotometer and mix a fresh gallon of Benjamin Moore Regal Select, Ben, Aura, or Valspar Reserve while you walk the rest of the aisle. We also mix Cabot solid and semi-transparent stains, Zinsser primers, and the Rust-Oleum specialty line. Custom tints, quart samples, and tinted primers all available. If the color exists, we can get it in the can.

  • In-store spectro color match · any sample
  • Benjamin Moore, Valspar, Cabot, Rust-Oleum mixing
  • Quart, gallon, and 5-gallon sizes
  • Zero-VOC and low-VOC formulas in stock

Assembly & Small-Engine Repair

Weber grills, Traeger pellet grills, patio sets, wheelbarrows, and anything else that shows up in a flat-pack — we'll assemble it before delivery or you pick it up ready to fire. On the repair side, our small-engine shop services push mowers, riding mowers, snow blowers, trimmers, chainsaws, and blowers from every major brand. Tune-ups, blade sharpening, oil changes, carburetor rebuilds, and winter-prep. We service what we sell, and we service what you bought somewhere else too.

  • Grill and patio assembly — included on most purchases
  • Mower & snow-blower tune-ups
  • Chainsaw sharpening and chain replacement
  • Winter-prep service for 2-cycle equipment

Key Cutting & Rekeying

House keys, deadbolt keys, padlock keys, mailbox keys, and most automotive transponder blanks (chip keys depend on vehicle). Two for a couple of bucks, cut while you shop. We also rekey Kwikset SmartKey, Schlage, and Defiant deadbolts in-store — handy if you've just bought a house or lost a tenant's set.

  • House, deadbolt, padlock, mailbox keys
  • Kwikset SmartKey rekeying in-store
  • Transponder blanks in stock
  • Cut while you shop

Propane Refill

Refill by the gallon, not the swap fee. Grill tanks (20-lb), camper tanks, forklift tanks, and anything else legally refillable. Our certified attendants handle the fill, you save roughly 30% over tank exchange programs, and you keep your own tank. Pull up to the cage behind the store during U-Haul desk hours.

  • 20-lb grill tanks, RV tanks, forklift tanks
  • Charged by the gallon — no swap fee
  • Certified attendants on staff
  • Mon–Sat 8a–5p · Sun 10a–4p

The thing Home Depot can't find

The Bolt Wall.

Bring the old screw. Bring a photo of the hole. Bring the weird washer that fell off the snowblower last winter. Someone here — usually Dave, sometimes Marlene — will pull open a drawer, hold up the match, and say “that'll be eleven cents.”

Fourteen hundred labeled drawers. Imperial and metric. Wood screws, machine screws, lag bolts, carriage bolts, sheet metal, self-tapping, deck, concrete, masonry, drywall. Stainless, galvanized, brass. Nuts, washers, anchors, hooks, eye bolts, turnbuckles.

If we don't have it, we'll tell you where to find it. Usually at the other end of the aisle.

Ask Dave where it is
