Amazing Service!.......

We highly recommend Homebase at Bishop Auckland as their customer service is second to none.
The staff is not only friendly but also highly skilled. Paul in particular spent a lot of time showing us round and making a budget work for our school project. Homebase kindly donated some plants and other items for our Father’s Day event at St Andrews Primary School.
“Amazing support and help are hallmarks of their service.” Thank you so much Homebase for being Amazing!

Paint shopping

I was helped in store on Saturday 8th April by a lovely lady called Debra and she recommended me some paint which I bought and I’m really happy with it.
A credit to your store.

Picked some things up with click and collect from the Bishop Auckland branch last week and they were very helpful. Even put a little not on my items saying they hoped my project as a success. Its these little things that make you want to return, Thank you

No toilet facilities

I would have bought a lot more things had there been toilet facilities. I think they are essential in a large store like Homebase where you would spend an hour or two maybe more looking around making lots of impulse purchases especially in the gardening department at this time of year. I just had to dash in, get what I’d ordered and leave,

Hi Lynne​, 

Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry for any disappointment caused - As a non-food retailer we aren't required to offer toilet facilities however there should always be one toilet available on request - we've shared this with the instore team to review further. Please let us know if you need any further support.

Thanks,
Team Homebase

Paul, 5 star!

After coming into the store yesterday looking for some garden furniture to purchase, we were told by a member of staff that there weren’t any items available and we need to order online, thankfully a member of staff we caught who’s name is Paul, asked if we needed any help went above and beyond and managed to actually find the stock we needed (sounds like the other gentleman didn’t go to those efforts) brill customer service right through from Paul to even unloading it in the van.

Quick and efficient

Quick and efficient. I'm pleased with the terracotta pots I ordered. I'd ordered online on Friday and they were ready to pick up on Saturday! I was only able to pick them up on Monday due to other weekend commitments. Cluck and collect was very quick and despite the store being busy I was only at the counter a few seconds.
