Visited today to buy 3 items, I asked a member of staff their whereabouts and was told where to go, i followed what I thought she said and found myself at the hardware counter downstairs which I thought might be the right place for what I needed. Asked a chap for the whereabouts of required items and he was sending me back from where I came from (this shop is a complete maze) when I said the lady shop assistant sent me this way his answer was " no she didnt " with no attempt to help I left without making a purchase (obviously)and would never attempt to shop there again So much for the friendly family run bussines I would have liked to add no stars at all

I use this place all the time they always have exactly what I need. But today was different I didn't know what I needed I'm an average 40s man that will more than happily look at a problem with my house and after putting it off for a week order the main part I need and then go ask advice. Well I came in to day for a plastic bolt and some sealant. The people that I spoke to were not specialists in plumbing but I had a photo and we puzzled it out together. With the ball cock arrangement and the things they sold me and advised given freely it was a 5 minute job and 35 minutes drying. Thanks for being there for me

In my view, this independent hardware store in Norwich stands out as the most reliable, competitively priced, and well-stocked option available. They carry items that are often hard to find in other stores. I recently visited in search of an irregular-sized screw that I couldn't locate anywhere else. To my delight, a staff member promptly found a suitable replacement screw for me. Furthermore, the staff are always courteous, approachable, and professional when assisting customers.

Brilliant hardware shop. Loved the range of cleaning products. Great and friendly service from a gent who had been in the business for a long time, and really knew his stuff. A real rarity these days!

What a cool shop. Went in there to look for a head torch and found one at a great price! Cheaper than any I'd seen online as well!

I went in to Thorns, a shop I have used for many years, on 9thJanuary at 3.15pm, to buy some batteries. There was a young man behind the desk in the basement walking up and down with his hands in his pockets and not making eye contact. I asked him very politely a question to which I got a surly "yes". I put my purchase on the counter and he said "£3.60 ". I told him that I wanted to pay by contactless. He put the cost in the card machine but didn't move it towards me so I just stood there until he moved it. Thorns should not be ruining their reputation by employing people with very bad attitude.
