An interesting shop right next door to Waitrose!…read more It doesn't feel like a shop but it doesn't feel like a stall either! It's quite small in comparison to other stores but still packs everything you need for the house in there! I've found the prices comparible but not as good as the larger stores. Staff are pretty non existant (which is the bad point), only at the tills so if you have a question and are unlucky enough to be caught in a busy period, then you have to queue to ask, only to find 2 other people magically appear from the mystical store room just when you don't need them! An odd shop but a functional expeirence.

Unless you want to be robbed, do not shop with Robert Dyas…read more TEN DAYS after an incomplete order, Robert Dyas has still not reimbursed me for the items the company did not deliver. RD charged me for four items and for their express delivery as part of a larger order earlier this month. The lanterns did not arrive. yet I was charged for their delivery. More disingenuously, RD's online communication and receipt pretended that the order had been made. When I complained by telephone and email I was assured that I would be reimbursed for the missing items. TEN DAYS ON, I am still waiting for my money. I will be taking this to Which! and suggest in the meantime that this shop is best avoided.

Your friendly local hardware emporium. They have it all - screws, hammers, doorstops, cleaning…read moreproducts. Yes, this is a regular one-stop-shop of the old-fashioned variety, where the owner knows the regulars and will cheerfully point you in the right direction for whatever obscure item you're looking for - and he knows, because he probably ordered it and placed it there himself. I've always had helpful and friendly service whenever I've walked in here - and have actually been pleasantly surprised to discover that I've also never left without the item I was looking for. It may look small, but this shopkeeper seems to have a sixth sense for what his customers will inevitably need.

Great hardware store, stuffed to the rafters (literally - there's stock displayed up to the…read moreceiling). Everything for home decorating needs including lumber - so if you need some 2" x 4" or dowel, they'll cut to your requirements. Also random stuff like baking tins, garden equipment as well as being suppliers for Dulux and other paint brands. It's a family run business and all of the staff are really helpful, particularly if you're a DIY novice.

However, the shop itself is a little dated in terms of its stock and I would expect to be able to buy the latest state of the art DIY equipment here. Basic is probably the right word. It is a pleasant little place but everything is just so...... old. Maybe it should re-brand itself as an antique DIY store. Of course, you can stumble across (quite literally as it isn't particularly well laid out) the odd hammer and drill gun and some odd paints and pots but that is about it. I am no expert in DIY but even I struggled to find the absolute necessities here.

Having recently moved out for the first time myself I've been needing to get my own tools for the…read morevery first time since I have always before just used my dad's ones any time i needed something. So going out into the world of DIY shops and at first using a lot of the big hardware chains and pound shops too I saw a range of prices from quite high (several pounds for a simple screwdriver) to low priced but terribly built items (screwdriver that barely holds it's shape and is thus useless). This experience left me wanting a more personal experience, one where I can tell someone what I need to do and they can use their expertise to help me get just what I need and at a reasonable price. I found that experience at Johnny's DIY. I have had much more DIY success since buying from them because they actually know what i need the tools for and give me honest advice to help me. I cannot suggest strongly enough that you visit Johnny's DIY for your next home improvement project.

I've just moved flat and I soon learned that my new flat was, how to say, 'well loved, then left to s**t' by the previous tenants. Which is just fine, because I like a good mindless DIY project or 12. So I went in for a few necessities like pliers. And a part for my Hoover. And a US to UK power converter. And super glue. And a phone to DSL splitter thingy. And duct tape. All of which I asked for in that exact language and all of which the helpful staff immediately found for me. Their store is chock full with helpful items that I'm sure all have wonderful purposes unbeknownst to my wildest imagination. They had exactly what I needed and the price was right, so that's all 5-star action for me. SDM must stand for super duper magic. Or at least it should.

Right on! Everyone…read moreshould be so lucky to have a spot like Leyland SDM in their area for the odd fixer-upper or DIY project. And it always seems, even if you don't think it, that these projects appear. I came in looking for: scissors, shims (uneven floors, I'm rolling off the bed!), an exacto knife (apparently lacking all sharp objects when we moved), cleaning supplies and an extension cord/power strip. I was successful in finding all but the shims (surprising, isn't' every flat in London uneven?) -- but found some of those furniture felt pads that should do the trick. The man that helped me was quite nice. Very helpful in leading me around the store on the "shim" mission and showed me downstairs to the lumber area, where they will not cut...but will provide you the saw to cut for yourself. Fair enough. Decent shop for most of your small project needs, including an entire paint section when you feel so inspired!
