Building materials store in Manchester

“It's like hardware shops must have been in the 1950's. They sell everything, knowledgeable and helpful staff. It's like stepping back in time (in a good way) to a nicer and better time.”

“Bought some decorating bits and pieces, cost less than a tenner. Friendly guy behind the till. Would definitely check here out before the big stores next time. Seem to have all the bits you'd need for DIY”

“Very pleased with my beautiful Christmas Tree, lovely shape & colour, a Nordmann Classic. Customer service was great all round. I emailed to reserve a tree on the Thursday & picked it up Saturday morning as arranged. Staff let me know the best place to pull up my car so they could load it into the boot for me. I definitely recommend G T Blagg for christmas trees & customer service. For a modest fee, they do home delivery. Next year might treat myself & go for this, as I’ll definitely be a returning customer.”

“Super friendly excellent range of stock, stair parts, tools, fixings, doors, just way too much to mention. prices are the best around, and that includes it online. If you also want stock that's been handled by people who care and know what they're talking about. Go here everytime, and support a local business.”

“I ordered a 6x5 ft fence panel at 9.16 this morning. It arrived at 9.31. Absolutely amazing service. I will be ordering again no doubt. Thank you”

“Any females out there who wouldn't feel comfortable in a builders yard, not here. They guys are so, so helpful, offer advice, suggest better options, you could achieve anything with their help and it's all in a very cheerful but respectful manner. I have gone there quite often for different projects and they are the cheapest anywhere for fencing panels, free”

“Staff are great, super helpful and always really pleasant to talk to, popping in makes the working day far more bearable!”

“Great guys knowlegeable about the products great price well worth calling down more product than any DIY stores”

“Polite service, has most of what you may need, and good recommendations if he doesn’t.”

“A very handy shop. The staff can't help you enough. I use them for odds and sodds for my handyman clients.”

“Brilliant, well stocked hardware store - also, it's the only place to find where other stores fail! Parking very limited but informed that doing so over the road is safe !”

“Excellent products at trade prices friendly and helpful staff i highly recommend fixings North west they have absolutely everything.”

“If you can't find it here it's probably not made. Great knowledgeable staff with a great vibe as they are so damn funny. Heck of a lot crammed into a small space so be prepared to search for stuff. I forget it's there sometimes and go to the big chains but these local people will have the same type of stuff but likely better quality and cheaper.”

“Visited April 2025 I needed a uniquely shaped timber for a project I had ongoing at home. They expertly cut the timber to size in minutes. Great service and lovely gentlemen.”

“Great company. Products and service”

“Excellent service, really helpful staff.”

“I recently chose Cheshire Tile and Bathroom Studio for the design and supply of my en suite & family bathroom. Lindsay was amazing at every step of the way. She understood exactly what I wanted during the consultation and design phase and gave me lots of options to choose from. She is clearly very knowledgable and experienced, which made the whole process stress free. She was also able to advise on a fantastic fitter. The showroom is beautifully presented with lots of inspirational displays, along with a wide range of product to choose from, catering to lots of budgets. I would highly recommend both Cheshire Tile and Bathroom Studio and Lindsay!”

“Called for the first time today after a bad experience at screwfix. James and Andy who helped me out are an absolute credit to the company. Back and forth to the stockroom helping me with the correct gate hinge i needed. Nothing was too much effort. Very friendly too!. Great staff & great stock and great that I don’t need to go back to screwfix again!!”

“Sue is very knowledgeable and a very helpful person if they haven’t got it she will try her best to get it for you.. Thanks Steve Cheshire Tail Lifts”

“This store is brilliant. The guys know everything and are friendly and helpful. We've just bought worktops off them and Danny Clarke fitted them to a brilliant standard. Couldn't speak more highly of them.”

“Best bathroom Showroom and supplies in greater Manchester, Danny and his team are remarkable from plumbing supplies to bathroom fittings. All brands are very competitively priced . If you want a bathroom underfloor heating or a boiler this is the only place to visit.”

“I have just used this company for the first time for a large delivery of garden manure and compost and the service and value are absolutely excellent and I cannot recommend highly enough. I will definitely be using again. Update - Four years on and I am still using John Maher every year for their excellent service and prices and now my friend has started using them too.”
