They had everything I needed for a few home repairs and a ton of cool plants. Ill definitely be back!

Really helpful staff and they have just about anything you could ask for. They will take the time to walk through a project with you and give you advice. Its also family owned, which is great. Prices are competitive and the experience is worth any premium you pay to avoid the big box stores. Great selection of tools, home repair supplies, grilling gear, and they have a nursery on the roof! They even get the schools involved through gardening programs and partner with a local CSA. Love this place.

I love the store it have everything i need to build my fish tank stand thank u

It was clean, well stocked, and had pleasant, polite staff. Much more of a high-end place than I expected.

All the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. A great place to go for all your urban gardening needs.

Great store. They got everything.

Never a bad experience at Jenks. The staff cares, and they really know their stuff. You know, how hardware stores used to be? I didnt know stores like this still existed. Their inventory, services and prices are amazingly competitive, too. Pretty much anything you can get or do at Lowes, you can get or do here. Do yourself a favor and shop here. Support a local business and feel good knowing you got everything you need at a great price.

Super cool hardware store that houses cultivate the city on their roof. What a grat combo.

Fantastic neighborhood hardware store. Super helpful staff. Well-stocked and fair prices!

I have been a Jenks customer for several decades. They are knowledgeable, friendly and easy in conversation.

Mr. James, Mike and other staff:Helped tremendously after a car key I had made there wouldnt come out of the ignition. They called the locksmith and took car of everything with the ultimate hospitality. Thank you Jenks Hardware, I will never forget you. I will refer you to everyone I know. Thank you, Marsha Bass

Still the best hardware store in DC. And probably on the East coast. Thx jenks.

The customer service at Jenks is top notch. I often come in with questions and the staff is always knowledgeable, patient and thorough in answering them. This store is also an awesome piece of DC’s history, and I always love going in here.

Difficult to navigate and seems like staff is all children. No exchange offered on return product.

Great local store with great assistance and selection

WS Jenks is the bees knees. I ordered a Sawstop tablesaw and they were VERY helpful. They had a guy come deliver it to me and I think they even have a service to set it up for you which I didn’t opt for…but kind of wished I did while I struggled with the 500lb beast in my shop. The thing about WS that they didn’t tell me about was their rewards program, which is pretty good and I’m glad I opened what I thought was a piece of junk mail which turned out to be a $90 gift card essentially.I purchased a dado brake for my new favorite saw with them after my superb experience buying my saw. I couldn’t find one in the tablesaw area so I had to ask am employee for help who went into the back to go get one. I’m not really sure what the story was on it, but the box said dado brake, but the actual product inside was a standard brake – so there was no way it would work with a dado blade. I of course didn’t know this and it sat on a shelf for a few months before I got my dado blade. After 3 months, the receipt was long gone, I realized what had happened and was very upset. I left a poor review and the very next morning they contacted me. WS Jenks offered to ship me a BRAND NEW dado brake so I wouldn’t have to drive up again from southern MD. They even offered to pay return shipping on the bad brake which was now covered in sawdust from being in my tablesaw and without a receipt. Their customer service is top notch and they go beyond most other companies these days. They have a really nice store that I love visiting and all the staff I have worked with has been super duper helpful and really knowledgeable. They bent over backwards multiple times for my business and I’m a happy customer.

Great local spot. They are always very helpful with questions.

Awesome selection. Very helpful staff. Always a pleasure shopping here

Jenks is always reliable and has great help. Mike is very knowledgeable as well as the rest of the staff there. Ive gone in with questions and hes helped me find the right solution. Theyre my go-to hardware store in DC.

Pleasantly surprised by this well-organized store and welcoming staff. Ill be back!

I really love going there because they always have what I need to fix my home and extras. Thank you Renee

Holy mother respecter, this plage is huge for a local hardware store. Friendly staff, and they had all the stuff my wife and I needed. Great place!

Great local hardware store that probably has what you need. They also partnered with a local group to have a greenhouse/garden plant situation on the roof

This is a fantastic, locally owned and operated in the neighborhood. Go and spend money there! The service and selection are fantastic and these folks really know their stuff and are eager to help!

This is a great hardware store. They have everything you need for a home project, from carpentry tools and equipment to gardening to paint supplies. The store is extremely clean and well organized. Its family owned and operated from what I can tell. Everyone I spoke with was very kind and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend this store.

For finds you wouldnt think, they have it. But keys are a problem.

I visit the store today. Tha store is so nice, clean and organized. I work down the street l tell people about where they can get keys made, many people ask me. I have never been in the store until today. This store is awesome.😌

I cannot be more happy with my experience at this hardware store. Jerry went out of his way to help me and give me crucial advice for wood work project that I am working on.David was also extremely knowledgeable about things as specific as nail finishes and purposes.the staff was kind and helpful. This is my new hardware store. I will come back and bring others too. I can’t see myself going back to the big name stores Anymore.

Friendly and inviting local hardware store with the odds and ends needed for home repair.Scott is always there to help and is truly the nicest person who will help you find whatever you need. He is on the far left after you enter.

This store is awesome, they have just about everything at a good price. I like going in and just browsing sometimes. They have a plant shop hidden on the roof too. I think Fragers might be owned by Ace Hardware so I go here any time I can instead even though its further from Capitol Hill.

Great location for a UPS drop off center and a 👍🏽to Joshua, an employee.

This location is well-stocked with a large range of tools (fine cabinetry machines, safety gear, painting tools, etc.), some simple household goods (pet care accessories, portable heaters, etc.), and basic construction materials. The staff are friendly and professional, and the retail floor is organized and clean. Certainly worth a visit, even if only to assess the stock for future use.

Good neighborhood hardware store with helpful staff and a better selection that you might expect. Its bigger on the inside than it looks from the street! Great for a quick trip when you dont want to go all the way to a big box store. Also a UPS drop off location.

This place is great, they are super friendly, helpful and the store is clean. I have been able to find everything I have been looking for and its local! One of my favorite businesses in the neighborhood!

This place is great. This place has been amazing to us since we moved to the neighborhood 4 months ago. We had an emergency with our shelving coming out of the wall, and the staff took time to explain what we needed to do to repair our shelving. They are courteous and helpful--now we make sure to stop by before any DIY project to make sure we have everything and know what we are getting in to. Great selection, great prices, THE MOST HELPFUL STAFF you will find for a hardware store.

Ive shopped here many times and agree with others that the staff here is incredibly helpful. I also appreciate the fact that theyre a ups my choice location. The convenience plus their willingness to help problem shoot make them the neighborhood hardware store that I fully appreciate

Super helpful and friendly staff. They always have what I need and the store is very well laid out. Support local small business!

Large and spacious hardware store in the old school sense. The staff is knowledgeable like Fragers of yore without the crowded piled aisles.The rooftop garden is a work in progress, but the space should prove incredible before long.Nice tool selection, garden section is adequate but slightly slim on choices, the upstairs has a little bit of everything else.

Can’t give 5 stars because I’m still waiting on additional information regarding a order I placed almost three weeks ago. Maybe I should’ve just visited in person.

These people are great. Its like walking into a hardware store owned by your dad. Theyre immensely helpful and if they dont have something youre looking for, theyll offer to order it for you. Sometimes a trip to a big box store is necessary, but for most small scale home repair projects, this is the place to go.

The store gave me a feeling nostalgia, but their merchandise is as modern as Home Depot. The staff was very attentive to what I needed. I would definitely shop there again.

Fantastic customer service! James was very nice and helpful and the team working in the garden section on the roof helped us out regarding Orchids. He was very knowledgeable and friendly! We love to support local businesses and one like W.S. Jenks with this kind of outstanding customer service we know we will always come back! Thank you W.S. Jenks!!!

This place has everything on hand that is needed for any job, big or small.

Wide selection, highly recommend. Very knowledgeable people.

Super nice staff! Good selection of products. Support your local hardware store!

Friendly helpful staff, and reasonable prices. Wide selection of tools and home improvement supplies and a lovely garden center on the roof

Such a good spot with helpful, kind staff and everything you need. Its deceptively big and the H Street Farm on top of the store means I never leave without a new plant for the house.

This is the best new development on Bladensburg Road NE! The folks at W.S. Jenks & Son transformed a neglected building into a wonderful community resource with all of your hardware store needs and friendly, knowledgeable service. They seem very responsive to and engaged with the community. I have been very pleased with every visit and purchase.

My favorite place to shop. I decided to shop for a lock for our mailbox...and yes they had it. I was in an out in 20 min with service from the time I walked in! You are always greeted at the door with no waiting for someone to help. I took my wife again and guess what they had a lemon/lime tree she wants!

Very knowledgeable had everything Beyond a home owners need and then some .

Theyre very nice and helpful. I would love to buy all of my hardware needs here, but honestly theyre at least 10 percent, if not 20 percent, more expensive

Needed a few small items on a quick stop in DC. If you need it, chances are theyve got it. A real hardware store that beats the box stores hands down.

Scott at the NE dc location was wonderful and had knowledge of the products. He was extremely helpful and will always come back to jenks for Scott.Sam C

I love this place! Its got everything you could want, and everyone Ive talked to has been helpful and knowledgeable about their offerings.

Great service and selection. Dont forget to check out the garden store on the roof!

Excellent selection, lots of high-quality power tools, plumbing supplies, pretty much everything you need for minor and major home improvement and construction projects. Staff is very friendly knowledgeable, was able to find everything we needed quickly and offer advice.

Great place to shop and if its not in stock they will order it and call you when it arrives at store. !GEM!

This place has really improved since first opening. The staff are helpful and its a spacious layout, and never too crowded.

This is a hardware store unlike any other - its a beautiful place! The staff is helpful, and the selection of stuff they have in the store is amazing.

Great resource & much needed in the area. Seem to be a great corporate/neighborhood citizen. Staff is very pleasant and helpful. Thanks!

One of my favorite places in DC ! Everyone is so helpful and I could find everything I needed at great prices

This is a really great neighborhood hardware store and they allow dogs. They also have a really neat selection of wood working tools - from carving tools, to router bits, to table saws.

Great place that makes you feel at home with the customer service that was given. My dream hardware store.

Great selection of hard to find/quality brands--without the Ace Hardware exorbitant prices; Id rather buy a quality tool thats slightly more expensive that will last much longer than some junk from HD or Lowes. Moving forward, I will come here before visiting the big box stores--but I think price matching would be a great marketing tactic here.

This place is great!!! Definitely worth a trip vs the box stores.

Amazingly friendly, professional and helpful staff. A true gem!

Staff, extremely helpful.Store,clean and brightGreat customer service.

They were very helpful and fast no waiting.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Helped me with questions on cement wall install.

In comparison, to Kohler Equipment in Landover Hills, Md., W S Jenkins is the best for customer service. W S Jenkins in DC are motivated and courteous with customers, not Kohler. Very poor service at Kohler.

Very helpful staff and a great resource in this area. Well stocked & clean store.

Always helpful with my packages, even though I have told UPS not to take them there, haha!! Thanks Jenks!

Super helpful staff!

Super knowledgeable helpful guys and a local place to boot!

All staff I encountered were very pleasant and helpful. Theres a lot in there - going back today!

Nice store. Well stocked.

Exceptional Customer service, Everybody knows where things are and can point you to the right person about specifics. Very wide selection.

This is a neighborhood treasure, please check out this awesome small business for any and all home and garden needs. Besides having a huge inventory and rooftop garden, their staff are skilled, kind and patient and go above and beyond to help customers—whether it’s finding the right tool or product, offering advice, or even rolling up their sleeves to solve a pesky repair problem. They have been an invaluable resource in my first years living in DC.Thankful to have such a gem in the neighborhood!
