U Save Plumbing & Hardware

Had good luck recently finding plumbing supplies for a bathroom remodel.
I've had them just point to a wall, but also had them pick out the part for me.
They took back what I didn't use for a full credit too. But their stated refund policy was short, like 15-days I think.
They have parts that HD doesn't and I like being able to get in and out quickly if you know what you're looking for.
Hope they can survive against the big chains.

This is an excellent store for plumbing supplies, and a good store for electrical and heating supplies. Keep in mind that this is a supply store for the trade and pro-amateur. iI you don't understand plumbing and electrical very well then go to an Ace or Home Depot store instead.

My first visit was a surprise. As a working carpenter, I usually expect small local hardware shops to stock mostly cleaning products, door mats, pet supplies, and light bulbs. But "U Save" has amazing depth in the most critical home-repair categories. The selection of pipe fittings, electrical boxes and wire, adhesive/caulks/sealants is remarkably complete for such a small storefront. Also, they clearly have *real* suppliers, they're not just a chain like Ace or True Value. Except for the fasteners department, most of U Save's stock is bulk on a shelf rather than being overly branded and bubble-carded. In other words, less "products" and more actual stock of the things you'll use up during a plumbing, electrical, rain-gutter, etc etc project. I hope all the local handymen know about this place, it will save them a few round trips to Colma.
