The service here is simply the best in all PDX for plumy & electrical needs. They have rewired @ 6 lamps for me in the past 2 months ... It feels great to have the lamps back in services. Locally owned & operated & great prices too!

Weve worked with A-Boy multiple times now purchasing plumbing fixture for our kitchen and bathrooms and electrical fixtures throughout the house. They are very knowledgeable and helpful.Their prices are excellent as well for quality product. Weve found our fixtures to be cheaper than online and we get to hold/see them before buying.They will continue to receive my business.

A sink drain broke and needed to be replaced. I was able to receive help at the door and check out with the correct part. Thank you for excellent service!

Audrey was awesome! I was looking for a replacement for a broken shower handle. They didn’t carry the part I needed, but Audrey went out of her way to identify the part, searched for it online and instructed me how to install it. She was super helpful, while not try to sell me anything. Thank you Audrey!!! I’ll definitely return to A-Boy for future needs!

This place is great. Prices are a little higher than the box stores but reasonable enough. The big difference here is the quality of the customer service is always top notch. The staff are incredibly friendly and eager to help. The store is well stocked, it is rare that they dont have what you need. Locally owned businesses are worth supporting and I will always come here first.

This is my new plumbing store. Finding help was easy and the fix was far cheaper(for me, anyway) when talking to people who know a thing or two about plumbing

They did a great job of rewiring an antique chandelier for me at a really good price highly recommended

I read that Aboy fixes lamps. I stopped by just before closing just to ask if they could fix my lamp. Without hesitation and a few minutes later my lamp was repaired. No only was I speechless but dumbfounded when Bill said no charge!!!I do appreciate great customer service as it’s a rarity these days and I can’t thank you enough! I’ll be back and I hope you will purvey them too! Thank you!!!

I was referred to A-Boy by another local business who didn’t have what I needed. They recommended A-Boy due to their large selection of less common adapters, etc... sure enough they had exactly what I needed and they were super helpful finding it. Customer service and product selection is first rate!

I love coming in here and seeing this cute little guy

Customer service is excellent as is the selection. Took care of a few things here that other hardware stores didnt have or couldnt be bothered to figure out properly. Jack worked with me on each problem I had and helped me find a solution that fit.

Ive been here dozens of times over the last 25 years, and they have had everything Ive needed every time.

Love the service these guys gave me. I forget the gentlemens name but I had to convert a 220v electrical plug to a different style and he made an extension cord for me, on the spot, for a killer deal. Ill be back!

Great shop with friendly, helpful staff. Selection and stock is generally better than the big box stores in a lot of categories. Ive also found items can even be cheaper here that Ive found them at the big box stores. A local gem and great resource.

A-Boy is hit and miss. Mostly miss. I have tried so many times to support my local electrical/plumbing shop. But 4 out of 5 times, they either dont carry what Im looking for (normal house plumbing work) or dont know if they carry it. Ive found one person at the Hollywood store that was helpful and knowledgeable. Everyone else is either distinctly unhelpful or without a clue.

I normally dont write reviews but I wanted to share that A-Boy Electric and Plumbing are fantastic!This time I brought my van and Bill helped me out with plumbing for my new water tank. Its working great!Im not going anywhere else in Portland than to here when it comes to Electric and Plumbing etc, they rock!

The people here are super helpful. Nothing like having someone walk you through the repair of an 80 year old valve stem washer replacement and how to use rubber packing rope to replace a washer that is disintegrated to nothing. Great people and a great resource for DIYers.

Excellent service and ideas for my project. Why would I go to a big box store?

Good prices, good selection, and friendly and knowledgeable experts to help.

I had a problem with a GFCI switch in my house. I called up A-Boy, and I asked if someone could give me some information on what it might be.Josh came on the line and troubleshoot the problem with me. He walked me through a few steps until we figured out the problem. Thanks for being so courteous and helpful !

Took in a lamp into A-Boy in Hollywood for repair. This was the second stop in two days to see if I could get it fixed. Bill was an absolute magician and did what others couldn’t. The lamp is now good as new. Thank you, Bill.

Excellent customer service. Bill was very patient, and answered lots of questions. I was working on several plumbing and electrical projects at once, and Bill covered all of em. Thanks Bill!

Why would you go anywhere else! Took my Husbands Kitchen Sink Trap Plumbing Problem to Bill at Aboy Plumbing Hollywood store and not only did he find all the parts we needed but he also cut pipes & assembled the whole contraption so I can just take it right home and have my husband put it back together easily. Sorry the Big box stores Dont do that. Again another reason we need to shop our local neighborhood family owned stores. Wed be lost without them! Thank you Bill, and Gary for leading me to Bill.😂 You guys are the best!😁

Easiest thing all day! Went in with my plumbing questions, Mike got me the parts I needed (and even improved my set up) super helpful!

Repaired my mid-century modern lamp! Handle my broken lamp on the spot. Couldn’t be more pleased. Five star customer service. You don’t get this type of hands on care at Home Depot, Lowe’s, Lamps Plus or Amazon. Another great reason to support local stores and smaller businesses. Thank you!!! AAA +++

I am a journeyman plumber in the Portland area and completing a few projects for my customers. Our company is communicating through phone and text and practicing appropriate social distancing. I came into a boys with a mask on and A diluted bleach water spray bottle and a clean rag. I spritz the handle and wipped it off as I entered. They chuckled at me and asked if I always do that. I said no there is a pandemic going on. They begin to chuckle as well as did not practice safe social distancing at all. I recommend not going into this story during these times

Phenomenal staff, very helpful.

I’ve remodeled 2 bathrooms and a kitchen and this place has by far the most knowledgeable and friendly staff. They have walked me through each step of the way for many of my most complicated projects and they always have what I need. They clearly put people above profit. I’ve gotten advice that saved me money and time. Love these qualified women and men!!

I have purchased many specialty bulbs there over the years and have been happy with their offerings, prices and staff members. I wanted to replace a light and thought Id go to A-Boy rather than a boutique place like Rejuvenation. I cant say I was happy with the floor sales person. I was pretty clear, I thought, with what I wanted, but she wanted to engage with me on something else entirely. Very frustrating to the point that I felt like I was auditioning for help. The selection they have, though, is quite good when you consider the small size of the store and their prices are quite competitive. I imagine that if I knew more about lighting or were an electrical contractor I would have left with a light, but as it was I left empty-handed.

I was in here picking up some stuff for a client and the guy behind the counter started giving electrical advice to a customer. I was stunned! It was obvious that he knew nothing about the trade, and the advice that he was giving, pretending to tell an unsuspecting customer how to wire something, was outright dangerous.Sadly there is no way to hold him responsible for endangering the public.

Always great and helpful.

Bill I believe is the manager was very helpful polite and I will not go to another plumbing supply company again. Every time I have been to A Boy on sandy the whole crew has been a pleasure to deal with. Thank you Bill! I have a new go to plumbing guy.

Jack, Bill, and Todd are all knowledgeable and helpful and named in order of the amount of experience Ive had with each. 100% success rate in getting my jobs done with these guys. Thank you for being willing to share your knowledge with your friendly attitudes. You have yourself a lifetime customer here. Thank you!

Great Inventory...courteous employees.

This used to be a good place for plumbing stuff but it has gone down hill. The staff are not very knowledgeable, and the inventory is very limited. I have purchased several items that failed and they do not stock replacement parts for anything.

I asked if they gave massages for sore backs, but they didnt. The service and help was almost as good as if they did. They sent me away with exactly what I needed for much less than I had anticipated. Thank you A-Boy.

These guys have a good selection, good prices and good advice. I always visit in the midst of some plumbing disaster and I always leave with a solid plan and hope in my heart.

Awesome customer service, wish I would have come here in the first place when looking for a kitchen sink. It would of saved me a lot of stress! The lady in the show room was up beat positive and help me find just what I needed !!!! very competitive pricing too!!!

Usually have what I need, helpful staff and a house cat!

I was trying to get fittings to hook up a toilet/bide seat for a client. I couldnt find anything to match up to what I needed. I was about to give up when Jerry walked up and asked If I needed help. I gave him my problem and 15 minutes later we came up with a solution that worked. Jerrys diligence towards trying just about everything finally worked. Great customer service. Thank You

Huge selection in every aisle. Helpful, knowledgeable staff. Need to explore the rest of the store next visit:

I brought two quirky projects to them: wiring artisanal lampshades, and repairing the frayed cord on a very old toaster. It was fun! Bill kept the old cloth covered cord, which I appreciate. I also bought a Toto Washlet from Audrey and she was super helpful. A-Boy in Hollywood is a wonderful resource.

I like em. Quality tools and materials at a reasonable price, and right in the neighborhood. Have to go to Parkrose Hardware, otherwise. Staff is friendly and helpful, with just the right amount of help me, but leave me alone, too. If I have a question, Im answered in a friendly way. Otherwise, they dont try to sell me stuff I dont want.

They where very helpful and if I needed any help I can bring my project in and get the help I need thank you for that💜

Customer service are very knowledgeable and helpful. They ask what you are doing and make suggestions that are easier and better. Way better than Home Depot or Lowes.

Wish thier Foster store was still open.

They are always extremely helpful and have what I need. Its nice to deal with a locally owned company.

These guys are great. They help me plan a large plumbing project using PEX then they loaned me the tool, so I didnt have to buy it myself. And I got lots of great advice, including to stay away from the plastic PEX joints and use the brass. Im glad I did, I think its going to be much more durable.I had to take back a ton of stuff ( just standard over buying, due to home amateur knowledge) when I was done, and they did it with zero complaints!

Its nice to have a store I can walk to when I just need a few screws or whatever. The employees are OK but not super-knowledgeable (e.g., when I was looking for a new thermostat for my furnace nobody had any clue what the differences between their models were).

The folks at aboy are always helpful.

Great staff extremely helpful.

They had everything I needed, and were helpful and friendly looking to check when I called beforehand.

Really above and beyond service. The person helping me took 15 minutes to fix something for me for no charge rather than selling me a replacement part.

Ive been a customer for years.Local, friendly staff, product stock is intermittent.Still my Goto for repair parts. They are always willing to help.I start here before the Orange Box trek, or Plumbing Wholesalers.

Excellent place. They know what theyre talking about.

Super-helpful, friendly staff. They make time to explain things.

Non existent customer service. Guy acted like he was surprised to see a customer, then did nothing to be of service. First and last visit.

Awesome old school service. Unbeatable.

Always very friendly & helpful.

Didnt have anything I was looking for

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff for your plumbing project.

They just have no clue what they are talking about. Had me on hold and kept coming back on to mix up voltage and wattage, even I know the difference. Then they would put me back on hold again to check the price and come back on to tell me the voltage wattage mix up again but still no price. Needless to say, I won’t be buying from them anyway so screw the price...

Decent selection of hardware, staff is knowledgeable.

Excellent purveyor of all plumbing products

Waiting for my husband to text me back about measurements for a project- i parked and in the parking lot (and got out of my car) a surly man rushed out immediately and told me I couldnt park in the lot. I told him I was a customer and he told me to park across the street..... Found a parking spot at home depot.
