The Home Depot, one of the nation’s leading home improvement retailers is pushing deeper into the Dallas market, with two new locations in the works for Celina and East Dallas, according to public filings. A company representative confirmed to What Now that both stores are slated to open in summer 2026, and are part of a broader national expansion that includes 12 new U.S. locations this year.
Founded in 1978 and headquartered in Atlanta, The Home Depot is the largest home improvement retailer in the United States, offering tools, building materials, appliances, and home services to both DIY customers and professional contractors.
The Celina store would land at 3425 S. Preston Road, at the corner of Ownsby Parkway and Preston Road, spanning roughly 137,000 square feet with a garden center. Construction could wrap as soon as late June 2026. The location puts Home Depot alongside a Lowe’s and a Costco already planned for the same corridor, cementing the intersection as a major retail destination for one of the fastest-growing cities in the country.
The second location would rise at 9334 E. R.L. Thornton Freeway in East Dallas, a new 135,000-square-foot build expected to complete construction by September 2026.
Ann-Marie Campbell, Senior Executive Vice President of The Home Depot, said in an official communication that the company’s expansion comes on the heels of rising momentum, with customer satisfaction scores climbing every quarter in 2025 and hourly associate tenure reaching its highest point since 2017.
