History
1922: Bob and Stanley Paitson
When Bob and Stanley Paitson opened their garage and service center in 1922, they never could have imagined that their humble beginnings would have been the seeds for so much progress and lasting good relations with the surrounding community. After six years at 15th Street and 1st Avenue in Terre Haute, IN, the Paitsons decided to take their business down town to 12th and Wabash, where their family would have a presence for the next eight decades.

1941: True Value Hardware; Heating and Air Conditioning
Their new location gave them the opportunity to expand from their previous focus into the hardware and heating business. By 1941, their services had been so successful that, when the opportunity presented itself for their next step in growth, they moved the hardware portion, Paitson Bros. True Value Hardware, across the street to 1142 Wabash. The heating and cooling arm of the Paitson Brothers' empire remained at the corner of 12th and Wabash, where it can still be found today - one of the leading Lennox dealerships in the nation.

1950: Paitson Bros. Roofing and Siding
As the years went by, Bob and Stanley's sons Gene and Jeff, joined the company, eventually taking control of the hardware and heating portions respectively. In 1950, Frank Paitson, opened up a third business within the Paitson Bros. family, Paitson Bros. Roofing and Siding (now directed by his sons, Bill and Steve).

1996: Ron O'Day, ACE Hardware
Since that time, Gene passed the reins down to his son-in-law Ron O'Day, who relocated the store to 2700 Wabash in 1996, doubling the size of the sales floor, and initiated a change from a True Value to ACE Hardware, opening the doors to further opportunities of service.

2006: Chuck and Catherine Procarione
The current owners, Chuck and Catherine Procarione, took over Paitson Bros. Ace Hardware and Rental in 2006, when Mr. O'Day retired from the hardware business after 25 years of service.

Having been employed at Paitson's for 15 years previous to his acquisition of the store, Chuck is committed to continuing the standard for Paitson Bros. quality service that the Wabash Valley community has come to know and trust for the last 85 years.
