A very good experience, ordered online paid for what I needed, it was delivered on time, it was very fast and efficient service. Well done.

I cannot fault your friendly staff and the fact that you were able to supply exactly what I required. I ordered online and collected the next day supplies for my wife's work. In order to reclaim my expenses I need to provide a receipt. A simple enough task you would think. However, in your Honiton branch on the day i came in, the computer system was down and all I have is a collection note which was pre-printed and waiting for my arrival so now i am out of pocket

Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
I am pleased to see that you have had a good experience with us.
I apologise that you were unable to get a receipt due to a system issue in our branch and for the inconvenience this has caused.
If you contact the branch, they are able to reprint this for you.
Kind Regards,
Charlotte
Special offer on a gallon pot of PVA - just at the right time
Searched on-line for PVA - my old one was running very low. I started with Bradfords, expecting it to be too pricey but found it was on special - and I only needed a few minutes' round trip rather than an hour+. Perfect.

No communication on delivery date or time, Just turned up!
Good value, good quality products but no communication at all about delivery after placing an online order. They just turned up one afternoon without any warning or phone call to see if any one would be in. Fortunately my wife was in but she was not able to help the driver unload, so the driver was most put out as a consequence. All it required was one phone call to arrange a date and time but Nothing!

Once bitten....
Ok, they had what I wanted, but.... I did click and collect due to covid, so no need to go inside. Wrong! I had to go into an office to be directed to another office, to be given a ticket and trawl the yard for the yardman. Then, no we're not done yet, go back to an office to have my ticket taken off me and be given 3 dispatch sheets for my one piece of wood. Pointless, ridiculous, potentially dangerous, no I won't be using again .

Convenient ordering online out of normal business hours with the earliest available delivery date offered. A call early the next morning offering a sooner delivery ahead of expectations. All in all, a friendly and efficient service which I’m happy to recommend.
