Scarborough Home & Garden: The Hardware Store Open Seven Days

Scarborough Home & Garden is open every day of the week, which is the fact that matters most when something breaks on a Sunday. It's at 13110 Highway 9, and it's the household half of Scarborough's two Boulder Creek stores.

What is in it

An Ace-affiliated hardware and garden store: tools, paint, plumbing and electrical, housewares, garden supplies, plants, outdoor gear, and the run of small parts that a mountain house consumes. Our directory listing also records animal feed here, including chicken feed, horse feed, dog food, and cat food, which is worth knowing if you keep birds and would rather not drive down the valley for a sack of layer pellets.

The chain does paint matching with Benjamin Moore and Cabot, including sample sizes, and cuts automotive and house keys, though not ones stamped DO NOT DUPLICATE. Services vary between the two Scarborough stores in town, so call before you count on a specific counter.

For lumber, building materials, propane filling, and STIHL service, that's the other store: Scarborough Building Supply at 12990 Highway 9.
