“Excellent customer service. I called the store looking for a gallon of recently discontinued BM paint and Renee offered to try and locate it for me. She took my phone number and called me back within the hour after finding the paint in Crystal Lake. I am thrilled that the paint is an exact match. Additionally, I had been having an issue deciding on what paint to use to touch up my crown molding, and Renee’s suggestion worked without fault. I’m very happy that JC Licht was one of the first stores I called; otherwise, I’m sure I’d still be looking for my paint.” –Denise, Google
“Highly recommend! I met with designer, Ann, who was just lovely. She spent a considerable amount of time with me and was very patient. I just had Tim at my home expertly installing everything. Very happy! Everything is beautiful from the shades, custom drapes and hardware.” –Peggy, Google
“I absolutely love this private owned business! They where very professional and very friendly. I initially went in with a swatch expecting to have to compromise for a close or similar shade.. but to my surprise they MATCHED THE COLOR OF THE PAINT PERFECTLY WITH MY SWATCH! Every day I walk into my glam room to get all dolled up I am forever grateful for the business that made it all come to life with just a touch or COLOR! ♥️” –Jasmeen, Google
“Had to go in there the other day to pick up a few different items. One of the sales associates was very helpful in helping me figure out which wall anchor I needed to hang up a 30 lb mirror and what I needed to remove paint off of glass windows. I visited Home Depot the day before and it was impossible to find someone to help me out, glad that we have a hardware store in our neighborhood.” –James, Google
“Great paint store in Chicago that carries Benjamin Moore paint and general hardware store items like caulk, cleaning supplies, and basic home repair items. Highly recommend them for great service and quality paint products.” –Improovy, Inc.
