Dunelms is usually called Funelms in our house. A huge shop of all things homeware it is a place to…read morego and just run riot. It isn't all plusses though But let's start with the positives. The choice is HUGE. For soft furnishings, bedding, curtains, towels, ornaments, rugs, cooking utensils, lightening, picturesand the winning thing is the price. Dunelm is packed with bargins this means it is a great stop off if you are moving to your first home, staging a house or a student who needs bits and bobs. As it has such a big turnover you will find many of the furnishing designs are in vogue at the moment so if you like to chop and change your decor with the fashion trends this is a good place to consider. However, the turnover can be so fast for very fashionable designs they may be there one week and gone the next. This is great as it means everytime you visit there's something new but on the other hand if you go away to deliberate on a purchase you may return to find it's gone. Aside from the fashionable trends there's a good stock of 'basics' - plain furnishings, basic crockery etc. At the furthest end of the store is a haven if you are a seamstress or diy furniture upholsterer - the material section. They have a vast choice of materials for all furnishing needs as well as a good remenants section. In this part I have always found the staff very helpful sadly this doesn't always translate across the store. One problem with Dunelms is the sheer size and subsequent mess. The mess is down to two things, customers getting things out and just stuffing them back and the staff always seem to have half unpacked boxes everywhere. It can make it daunting if you are not in 'treasure hunt' mood. Nowhere is this more obvious than the sale section which is just a big dumping ground. As well as you own home needs there are often good gift sets and gifts to be found, especially in the run up to Christmas when they also have a choice of decorations and tableware. Again with Christmas stock it can depend on the luck of the draw as to which day you shop. In summer they carry a good range of cheap picnic and outdoor wares. As I mentioned before the staff can sometimes let the store down. Some floor staff aren't very helpful and the worst I a came across was customer services when I needed to return an item - she was downright rude! So if you are looking for some home bargains Dunelms is a good bet but it isn't a relaxing shop.

Swadlincote Window Co are a well established firm on the outskirts of Swadlincote, adjacent to the…read moreRailway Inn. In their showroom they have a wide variety of double glazed windows and doors to fit any style of house. They also fit fascias, guttering and garage doors, as well as installing flat rooves. The salesman and the staff that measure up are friendly and helpful, allowing you to make you to make your own decisions, rather than using the hard sell that blights so many other double glazing firms. The fitting staff that installed the windows and doors were proficient at their trade, keen to get on and produce a quality finish. Swadlincote Window Co are a professional company that pride themselves on their finished product. We were so happy with their workmanship, we also employed them to fit us a new garage door. The price is also competitive, which gives them another edge over their rivals.

We…read morewere really pleased with the time and effort that was put into getting our choice of Windows right (they made up 2 versions for us as we couldn't picture end product). The fitting staff were efficient and tidy and a pleasure to have around and the end product was great and at a really competitive price (had 4 quotes at the time). Would definitely recommend. Have been meaning to write this for years so hope they are still as good hehe

Deville Interiors are a firm of kitchen planners and fitters situated in Tutbury. The job we needed…read morethem to do was rather more simple, to replace our skirting boards in the lounge and fit a baton, so a curtain rail could be hung. Deville Interiors are an extremely busy firm, but they fitted us in, even though the job was relatively small. They visited us to give us a quote, which was a little pricey, but their worksmanship is exemplary. The job was also completed quickly and all rubbish was removed. We would not hesitate to use them again.

Staff are…read morehappy to let you browse, so you don't feel pressurised, but very helpful when you need to talk to them. Tiles are displayed on the wall, so you have an idea of what they will look like when they are up. It can be a bit confusing, as the price listed on the side, does not always relate to the closest tiles, but there are catalogues you can look at. Staff will also go through all the accessories that you will need like spacers/grouting etc

Leek Tiles are great! We used to have a Victorian house with a lovely Minton tiled floor which had…read morebeen damaged by the previous owners but only in one small section. They found some similar tiles for us in a range of colours and came to replace the concreted patch. They did such a good job that people thought the floor had survived unscathed for over 100 years and that they had not noticed it before because it had been covered by the carpet. They were also much less expensive than either of the other 2 quotes we obtained for this job, so we would certainly use them again.
