Terrible

Terrible. Just because you are going into administration don't forget people will still be trying to order off of your website. They cancelled one order which I made, ordered more items and can't be bothered to update on the delivery which I specifically asked for today. Joke.

I was pleased with my purchases

I was pleased with my purchases. But the colleague that served me was quite rude and unhelpful. This is most unfortunate as usually I have a very positive experience and find the staff helpful.

What a brilliant team of such helpful and kind people!!

Went to Home Base, Catford branch just off Road with a team member to do a big work garden items. I was really impressed at how helpful the staff were, one gent helped us with lifting the large heavy ceramic pots, another kind lady came and found my colleague to get us to scan QR code as we spent a long time in the store filling up our 4 trolleys with gardening stuff. She didn’t want us to get fix penalty notice for parking for a long duration in the car park. I really appreciated the proactive and very considerate action! The lady on the till was also very delightful and extremely helpful and patient with our large amount of stuff she had to scan. Such a great team of professionals at this branch!! I hope the management team know how lucky they are to have such lovely and helpful people working for them! Thank you the team at Home Base Catford branch ( just off Bromley Road) you guys rock!!

Got a call from Homebase to remind me to collect. The staff is always lovely and the click and collect item was in great condition.

Discriminatory Treatment at Homebase Catford - Avoid This Store

I’ve been to the Homebase Catford store a few times, and each visit has been uncomfortable due to the behavior of the security staff. Every time I shop, I am followed closely by security, which makes me feel extremely uneasy. On multiple occasions, after paying for my items, I’ve noticed security waiting at the entrance as I exit — something that doesn’t happen with other customers. I’m then singled out and asked to show the contents of my personal bag (not even a Homebase one) and provide a receipt. When I question this, I’m told it’s “policy” and that it happens to everyone, which is simply untrue.

I’ve reached out to Homebase about this issue in the past, but nothing has been done to address it. As a 40-year-old man who works in trade, I find this treatment both offensive and unjustified. I was even told that it was because I had a backpack with me, which is ridiculous as I was on my way to work.

Due to this repeated and discriminatory experience, I will be avoiding this store in the future, and I would recommend others do the same.

Amazing experience

Our experience with Homebase was worth 5star+++ from the beginning to the end. 1st, Liz was very helpful, guiding us choosing our ideal kitchen and storages and 2nd, what can I say about the fitters,George and Radu, there's not enough stars for them. We were impressed by their professionalism, punctuality and amazing work. Thank you very much.

Exceptional service and design

Liz was absolutely amazing from day one! Her creativity and knowledge really blew us away, and she was so patient as we kept changing our minds. No matter how many times we switched things up, she always had a smile on her face and great ideas ready to go. Plus, she made the whole process fun with her easygoing nature and sense of humor – she matched our banter perfectly, which made working with her an absolute pleasure.

What really stood out was how much she genuinely cared. Liz didn’t just stick to regular hours – she went above and beyond, answering our messages and questions even outside of work, making sure we felt supported the whole way through. She really got what we wanted and came up with suggestions that turned our kitchen into something even better than we’d hoped for.

We’re beyond happy with how everything turned out. Liz is hands-down the best kitchen designer you could ask for – talented, down-to-earth, and just a great person to work with. If you want someone who knows their stuff and can have a laugh with you, she’s your go-to. We can’t recommend her enough!

Wrong ticket price

Got to the till and what I brought came up to £4.50 but because it said £4.75 on the ticket instead of trusting the till she actually changed it to £4.75. So I won't be shopping at homedase again I'll go b&q from now on .where is the service here she said she had to do .I work in retail so I no what the till says is what it is .good luck homebase u won't be here long if u keep that up got served by bhanu

Goods were not new and had no boxes and showed lots of stains from display or storage. Asked for reduction but not agreed. Very disappointing and not like Homebase

Kitchen by homebase

In one sentence ujala jadhav made it possible. From the beginning to the finish always available for help and advice.
