Living 20 miles from the nearest town of any size, I buy a lot of things on the net. I must have bought from TOOLSTATION a dozen times and always had first class service. I am a total fan and cannot praise their delivery service highly enough (never failed to deliver within 24 hours at no cost - provided order is over the comparatively modest sum of £10). The website is easy to use and order from. I also have their catalogue on my bookcase (I find a good catalogue easier to use than any website) Very easy to go on site, put in a catalogue number and if you order before 5pm, you get your goods the next day. I've visited their store once and found it a much ...  Read the complete review

For those who haven't heard of it, Toolstation is a Catalogue Shop for builders/DIY'ers. Their branches (ie shops) tend to be located in outer suburbs, but their website offers free delivery if your order is over £10 (as of Sept 2012) with the option to pay more for a delivery by mid-day.

On the Friday morning I called Toolstation, got a telephonist who couldn't be more indifferent to the situation telling me doors wouldn't go out until Friday 11th Feb at the earliest, and that my doors were on their way on a PM delivery. Unfortunately I had the carpenter waiting on hand ready to fit the doors (in the naieve expectation that they might ...  Read the complete review

Tool station has to be by my reckoning the best place to buy tools and materials from at great prices. I have been in the building game for around twenty years now and a friend about three years ago introduced me to tool station. This made my life allot easier, all I have to do is work out what I need for the week or next day and get on there online shop or phone them up. There's lots of ways you can obtain the items you need either by ordering online through their web site, catalogue or going into one of their branches. They have over fourty branches over Wales, England and Scotland. When going online all you need to do is type in what your ...  Read the complete review
