Since 1924
Flood Square Hardware is owned and operated by Shawn Hillard and Cliff Paskell. Shawn – an original Southie guy – and Cliff – OFD (originally from Dorchester), bought Flood Square last August but Flood Square has been in business since 1924 when Norman Alekna opened its doors. For over 90 years, they have been providing the good people of South Boston with everything we need for home projects and then some. At Flood Square, they can make you keys or repair a lamp for you. Got a rip in your screen? They can fix it for you. They also provide window treatments like shades, blinds and interior shutters customized to fit your window dimensions. If you need a name plate made, Flood Square has custom engraving too.
Delivery right to your door
With gardening season upon us, Flood Square has all the tools, soil and seeds you need for sprucing up your backyard. And if you run out of soil when you’re planting, just call up Shawn and Cliff and they’ll deliver more right to your door. In fact they’ll deliver any of their products to you. That is one of the many convenient services that they happily provide. One service in particular that seems to be popular is their “Ladies Night” where they serve wine and cheese and teach simple home improvement projects to the attendees. They are hosting one later this month for the South Boston MOMS Club and hope to have another Ladies Night in June. Get your overalls and high heels ready, girls!
