Darlington's branch of Homebase is located on the retail park at the top of Yarm Road and therefore…read moreis easily accessed from the bypass as well as through the town. There is also plenty of parking outside. Although not the biggest store it has a good range for home decorating including paints and wallpaper, kitchens, bathrooms, garden furniture, plantsm and other diy related items. I have always found staff helpful but in comparison to the rival B&Q, they seem a bit sparse of the shop floor if you are looking for advice. Homebase regularly have 10% days or the like so if I were buying something big I would hang on till the next one or try and negotiate a discount.

I know we should all be supporting small businesses espeically during the credit crunch but I am…read morenot impressed with the service I have received when I use this place. I have taken in pipes and valves which have needed to be replaced and been sold the incorrect items so the staff knowledge of DIY has never been helpful to me. The staff also forgot to tell me that if I take advantage of returning items for a refund you have to pay a 10% restocking fee. The place is also at least 20% more expensive than B&Q. Evnthough I live a 5 mins walk from this place I would rather drive to B&Q as the staff have always been a lot more helpful to me in B&Q and they don't charge me a fee for trying to return something.

Absolute treasure trove. I have found loads of items here a lot cheaper than Q+B and the staff know…read moretheir stuff, they have even ordered goods in for me before. If you live local, save your petrol, save your time and shop here. Stuart

Absolutely brilliant.

John was super helpful & he helped me find a carpet in store within my budget but still very good quality and then went above and beyond to do so when the original carpet I wanted was out of stock. Very quick turn around as carpets are booked to be fit on Tuesday, so literally 5 days from calling up they'll be down and sorted which is fantastic as I'm currently heavily pregnant and on a time limit. Nothing I asked was too much and the service was fantastic. Thank you so much.

This is a very good furniture shop without a doubt. Quality…read moreis very good and you could shop here with piece of mind knowing you are not buying rubbish. I must admit that I practically only buy from here in a sale time and have managed to pick some good deals. Word of advice If you shop here and its not a sale time then before you agree a sale ask what the price has been or would be in sale time and from there you need to haggle down. If you don't ask you won't get I bought an Italian leather sofa and a piece of the stitching came loose after about one year and I was worried that they might not cover this but to my delight it was no problem for them what so ever. The customer service dept was extremely polite and apologetic, they made speedy arrangements for a specialist to come out and look at the problem and to my surprise he even repaired it there and then. Very good quality Excellent customer services Fair priced but can knock down when not in sale period
