Big Johns Ace has been a staple in the community since 1904, starting as Cedaredge Lumber with a modest inventory of $69,000 and 5 employees. Over the years, the business has grown significantly, now employing up to 25 associates and boasting an inventory of over $1 million. Customers praise the friendly and knowledgeable staff, who are always ready to lend a helping hand and ensure customers find what they need, even if they didn't know they needed it. The store offers a wide range of products, including Marvin Windows, Therma-Tru Entry Doors, Select Structural Lumber, Trex Decking, and a fully stocked Ace Hardware. Many of the employees have been with the company for over a decade, some even for more than 25 years, providing exceptional customer service. While the prices may be a bit higher, customers generally find the quality and service worth the cost, making Big Johns Ace the go-to destination for home improvement and hardware needs in the area.
Friendly knowledgeable staff. They were on point and knew exactly where to find the items I needed. For a small town hardware operation I expected far less inventory, but this place has what you need for just about any project. I appreciate an establishment that serves smaller communities, and this place serves Cedaredge... read full comment

Friendly and helpful staff. I used to work at the True Value store and I know for a fact you have to know every item in the store and location.
