Paint not sealed properly

Bought a 5L tin of paint which the lid was not properly on. The tin fell over in my car and went everywhere. It was well stowed so it didn't fall far. Will be in touch with customer services to get reimbursement for the damage caused

Hi there,

We do ask that customers carefully check the lids before leaving the store to ensure the lid is properly fastened. Once you get to your vehicle, we do advise the paint is in a vertical position and you check that the item will be secured whilst the car is moving as the responsibility is with the customer to ensure the above is followed to prevent any spillages.

We’d be more than happy to cover the cost of the paint by sending you a gift card of the price you paid however Homebase cannot be held responsible for paint spillages once the customer has left the store.

Disappointed that there was no update email on arrival of products that I had ordered. As it happened I was in but would liked to have known that was arriving earlier than the original date given.

Hi Frances, 

Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry for any disappointment caused - We can see your review is related to an online order so we'd be grateful if you could update your review and remove the location from this by selecting 'no specific location'. We're sorry to hear that you had no updates regarding your order - We do ask that a mobile number is provided not a landline to ensure that all communication is clear but we'll certainly feed this back to our suppliers.

Thanks,
Team Homebase

Didn't have the paint in the store I required and they also could not order it in which means I have to order online and pay a delivery fee
