The 30 Best Diy project in Croydon

“First-time customer of buildbase Croydon and I got a brilliant service from the team from the time of order to delivery, and they went above and beyond to get me the best price, which beat anyone else.”

“Friendly, helpful service and great stock: had everything I needed. Pleasure to shop at Finch's”

“The plastic handle on our dishwasher snapped and I was concerned that it couldn't be repaired. The owner of Addiscome DIY came to the rescue and suggested his "secret superglue", which fixed the problem completely. He also researched and provided a line for a discontinued Flymo stripper. I always find the owner polite, friendly and most helpful. His shop has everything! Stocktaking must be a nightmare...”

“Instant polite and genuine key cutting service had it done within 10 seconds he's a professional”

“A great shop, not too big/overwhelming and plenty of parking. Lots of deals on throughout the store. Took my 2 young kids for half term activities and found many bargains and things for them to do”

“Bev from Howdens designed our renovated kitchen and did an absolutely incredible job! She thought outside of the box and brought ideas to the table that we hadn't previously considered, but which were perfect for the space. She is very knowledgeable and friendly, we highly recommend her services - 10/10”

“Wow what a nice people . This store is full of excellent people, they help us in each and every sense. Very polite, patience. Thanks so much for your brilliant service.”

“Great furniture store and cafe. We had to return some furniture as we ordered the wrong item our mistake. The return process was easy you just enter a code then go to a till 40 seconds and it was all done. We then headed upstairs to try the cafe, it was breakfast time so that's what we had I tried the £2.99 vegetarian breakfast it was delicious the coffee tasted good also. For the price and quality it without a doubt its a great breakfast stop. Someone on the reviews said on their visit the cafe was dirty, on my visit I found the cafe area spotless and fresh throughout. My appreciation to the cleaning staff thanks. After that we headed through the store again I really enjoyed it I found no faults whatsoever. Disabled access is brilliant throughout. My only concern was all the staff we encountered were very unhappy and non engaging without any exceptions such a shame, perhaps its not a good place to work maybe.”

“Great service, Yard lads friendly & helpful Counter staff producing good prices”

“IKEA, love this place, I could happily spend the day browsing around the numerous merchandise and fabulous displays. Only problem is when you reach the checkouts, queues and not enough self-service tills open. But I got what I want and will return.”

“The staff was very professional and didn’t take long to bring my item. Very pleased with him….keep up the good work…we need more like you.”

“Halloween and even Christmas home decoration available at the range. Got a large decorative display at a bargain price of £6.99! Love the scented candles and if you are into Halloween you will surely be pleased.”

“Had a delivery this morning at 45 lakes road by a driver called Paul How refreshing it was to know there are drivers out who helpful skilled and courteous Paul is an excellent driver and deserves to be recognised for exceptional professionalism”

“Always Helpful (ALM DELIVERY DRIVER)”

“Wow wow wow!!!! What a gold mine. This shop has everything you could possibly need! Including the kitchen sink!! The staff went above and beyond to meet my needs and even ordered other stuff for me next day delivery at brilliant prices. Highly recommend. Firoza”

“Yard lads friendly & helpful thank you”

“This civils site is mostly used for trade customers with large orders but when I popped down for a couple of small bits (clay y’s) the customer service was first class. Thanks again!”

“I have been using this company for many years, and have to say they have become a massive part of my growing business. Always going well out of their way providing the best service, staff are fantastic, delivery drivers are extremely helpful, and even cover over products when dropped of too avoid them getting rained on. Above all extremely fairly priced. Would strongly recommend doing a price comparison on any building products from other suppliers as I have noticed just how much the competition has become more expensive. The timber is 1st class Quality and have a fantastic on hand tools. Massive thanks for all your help!”

“I have been visiting Toolstation, Beckenham on a regular basis for nearly a year. It has become like a second home! Customer service is excellent and nothing is too much trouble. Items can be easily ordered, if not in stock and can be returned if not suitable. Michael Tasker served me today and has done on many previous occasions. He is a charming young man, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and goes out of his way to help. I was not rushed or made to feel a nuisance, especially when others were waiting. I am always treated with the utmost respect. I would also like to mention Ed, who has served me on many occasions in the past too. He has always been patient and helpful, especially when deciding which handles to choose as I was replacing all my internal door handles. It was no trouble for Ed to open several boxes of handles so I could make a decision. He also carried two huge tubs of Wallrock paste to my car, without hesitation. These two young men are a huge asset to Toolstation and I hope they will be rewarded for their excellent service. I have also been served by many other members of staff and all have given the same high standard of service. Well done guys and ladies! Thanks to all of you.”

“Lovely people and with very fine items. A good bunch, especially Gary, Colin and Marlon. I 100% recommend this company and it's people.”

“Frank at the Beckenham branch was very helpful in helping me when HSS missed a delivery. Thanks a lot mate. Wish all staff were like you.”

“Bought many veneer planks cut to size for my extensive project. Really good quality of wood and accuracy of cut. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, a pleasure to deal with.”

“Good brick matching service came all the way to our project in south London and matched the bricks Perfect Michael said what we needed and he was spot on tried other reclaimed yards and not a patch on these thanks Michael”

“Entered at 7:42 pm on a weekday and still a smiling service from staff whilst their advertised closing time is 8pm. Promptly ordered and picked up items. Online tool is great to check stock and also order.”

“I had a very smooth and helpful experience last week. John was extremely helpful and sweet, he took his time with guiding me on the best paving material and was very patient with my lack of knowledge! Delivery was also within 24 hours which is super quick. Would highly recommend to anyone!”
