Great service at Blandford branch
I went into the Blandford branch on 10 November and the very helpful friendly man there went above and beyond to make sure I had all the necessary information to make my purchase. I wish I had asked his name!

Really helpful
Really helpful, I only needed a couple of decking boards but still needed them to be pretty long and I worked out they would fit mostly in my car with a bit sticking out if they were cut down a little. They kindly did this for me. Good price if you need some nice long bits of decking.

Good morning Malcolm,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
I apologise greatly for these issues and for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
I will look into this further, and feed this back to the Branch concerned, to see what caused this to happen.
Kind Regards,
Joe.
Heavy lifting…
There was stock, I ordered, they delivered. Pretty straightforward! What I like at the Blandford Forum branch is that they are cheerful, helpful and keep the customer informed. Delivery was as advised and again, a very pleasant driver.

Online order.
Ordered online and delivered within a couple of days. As a private customer rather than a business, I find this most satisfactory.
