Sundaram Hardwares

If you go down Hospital Road near the Nellikuppam Main Road intersection, you’ll see our shop at 40/29. We've been sitting here for years, surrounded by all sorts of tools and bits of metal. It’s a bit crowded inside because we try to keep a lot of stuff on the shelves, from nails to basic plumbing things. You might have to wait a minute if we're looking for a specific size of something in the back. It gets pretty loud with the traffic outside, but we’re used to it. Most of our regulars are just folks from the neighborhood trying to fix a leaky pipe or put up a shelf. We aren't a big chain store, so things are a bit more personal here. Sometimes we run out of things, but we usually know when the next delivery is coming. The floor is a bit worn down from all the boots coming through, and we don't bother with much decoration. It’s just a hardware store. We spend our days counting inventory and helping people figure out which screw fits which hole. It’s basic work, but it keeps us busy from morning till evening. If you need something for your house, you just walk in and ask. We don’t have a website or anything like that, just the physical shop here on the road. It’s a simple life running a place like this, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
