“Only 58% of customers indicated the store was very clean and 52% indicate product information was clear and helpful,” said Michael Taylor, senior managing director of retail intelligence practice at J.D. Power. “These two factors play a vital role in overall customer trust in the retailer and as customers are spending an average of $1,786 a year on home improvement products, these are areas in which the retailer can improve to increase share of wallet and overall customer satisfaction.”

Study Ranking

Menard’s ranks highest in customer satisfaction with a score of 678. Ace Hardware (676) ranks second and Home Depot (665) ranks third.

The 2024 U.S. Home Improvement Retailer Satisfaction Study measures customer satisfaction with home improvement retailers by examining eight dimensions (in alphabetical order): additional services; digital tools; level of trust; people; product/supplies; return policy/process; store/facility; and value given price paid. The study is based on responses from 2,157 customers who purchased home improvement-related products from a home improvement retailer within the previous 12 months. The study was fielded from January 2024 to March 2024.
