Things you needto know about...

Paint: Benjamin Moore paint products are Earth and People friendly: Our waterborne products have the “Green Promise” formulated with our patented waterborne technology which means it is environmentally friendly, low to Zero VOC’s, low odour and often exceed industry standard. Our products are safe for pregnant women, nursing mothers, medical facilities and people that have asthma or allergies. Benjamin Moore has over 3000 beautiful colours that can only truly be created in our Superior paint products at a cost to suit your budget. Who says designer products need to be expensive? We have the eye to colour match any other colour not created by Benjamin Moore.

Flooring: At Alberni Colour Corner we have a wide Variety of Bamboo, wood, engineered wood, laminate, tile, vinyl and carpet to choose from (special order). Your home is your investment and beautiful quality fl ooring is a very important investment in any home. Before buying your new fl oor, make sure you read the fi ne print on Warranties covered by the distributor. A lot of inexpensive fl ooring may say lifetime warranty but it is in your best interest to fi nd out what is NOT covered. Cleaning your fl oors with Vinegar is a difi nate NO-NO and can void your warranty. “Bona” our Swedish Formula fl oor cleaning products are safe for all fl oor surfaces. Bona will clean your fl oor without harming your top coat or substrate.

Custom Blinds: Now that you have your paint and fl oors, you can’t forget to cover your windows. At Alberni Colour Corner we also carry a wide variety of custom blinds; Levolor, Habitat, Shade-o-matic (Atmosphere) and Graber. Finish off the look of any room with our beautiful Cellular, Pleated, Wood or Rollershade selection. Patio doors can be complete with Vertical or Panel Track. It’s all in your imagination!! If you need privacy there are a few options available as well.

Keeping you sharp

Halloweencostumes

Since our move to a larger, brighter location in January, not only have we been adding new stock like crazy, but we also get more new stock each week. If you have not been by in awhile, come see what’s new!

Whether you are on the ice every day or once a year, you only look as good as your last sharpening. Even though they start as low as $3.57, “I personally guarantee every sharpening because I do each and every one myself.” ~ Gary Robertson, owner.

For the fi rst time this year, Alien Sports has Halloween costumes. Whether you want to own it, or rent it for one night we have over 70 toddler to adult size costumes to choose from. If you have a large costume collection, talk to us about turning it into cash!
