This place is amazing! Like a hidden jewel for builders and DIYs. A family-business building store. They carry a immense variety of building items, supplies and tools. I bought all reinforcement bars needed for a project and everything was correct and delivered on schedule. Owners and staff are friendly, industrious, and very helpful. Their new premises,near North Miami Ave, are really great!

A excellent mom and pop shop.
Prices are actually lower on a majority of items then at major retailers such as home depot.
And they also do kitchen cabinets and other furniture on site at a rather reasonable price.

The service and attention we receive from everyone at little river is outstanding. Materials delivery right the next day to the best of their capabilities. Always buy from them for over 10 years

I came to pick up a lock and have keys made. Lots of choices, great prices, helpful owner, I am happy to recommend this sisters-owned, 40 yr-standing store that I only just discovered.

It's a time warp items on shelves Dusty...but if you need rat poison...the good stuff...the kind that will give you an edge over those river rats....ask for it at counter...rat traps the big ones ...the kind that can sever a toddlers wrist...you can find there....and take a minute and say hi to Saint Lazarus in front ...it belonged to the late owner...and thank them on my behalf for feeding the comunty and yours truly every Thanksgiving....for a few years...thank YOU

Realizing that using black electrical tape was not aesthetically pleasing to the designer wannabe's eye, I drove myself off to the local hardware, which according to Yelp was the ACE Hardware located on 284 NE 79th St In Miami. In short they gave me an estimate of $8.00 for 5 small rolls of different colored electrical tape with 1 small white one in.
OMG I was appalled. Disgusted with Yelp I turned to Google and found the Little River Building & Home Supply store. It wasn't far from this ACE Robbery store. I did not have high hopes as I had never heard of this place and it seemed to be off the beaten path for sure. It was 4:30 in the afternoon on a Saturday, and like most places in Little Haiti I was expecting it to be closed or be closing soon.
I pull up, and pull in, and behind the counter, to me; (which to you may seem odd), is two medium framed, Italian Middle Aged ladies who seem to mean business. One lady clearly runs the store, the other is either family, or is just providing company.
I obviously seem exasperated because the one Italian mafia looking middle aged lady asks me how she can help me, which I think is quite refreshing in Little Haiti, but anyway, I tell her I am desperately looking for white electrical tape, a feat that seems to be elusive as finding
Dom Perignon on 54th and NE 2nd Ave.
She turns away from me and I think, yeah they don't have it either, I should probably should just look online. She turns back to me holding a large roll of white electrical tape and says, "here we go".
I look at her like she is definitely the Italian Mafia.
I ask her how much.
She says; "$3 dollars".
Well that was that right there.
Like someone out there said; it's all in the little things. It damn well sure is.
I have been back three times since.
The Owners name is Laguna. I don't think she's Italian. I have never had the audacity to ask. I think she has some handsome sons though, and I think perhaps they put in a shift or two at the store, but I think on the whole she works herself to death there. Her husband died years ago.
She told me she knew more than her husband did, and I believe her.
I once told her about a speaker wire project I was doing and she asked me I about the points I was using. I had never heard of a point but I had seen one. I just never put two and two together.
I told her about the silver mirror that was hanging by a miracle and a wisp of air, she scolded me on the chosen anchor and educated me on the correct anchor as well as the overall use of the stud finder while I was trying to find a stud finder app on my IPHONE.

What I can tell you if you're a Man - I mean you must be reading this for something informational enough to want to go to this store, is that their 80lb cement bags are $6.90 each, and it doesn't matter how much you want they have it on hand.
And you are so welcome; I took all those pictures just for you big daddy.
