Homebase St Albans Hatfield Road

Went for a Homebase kitchen design today and couldn't believe how nice the showroom was. They had everything you could ever want and the designer was really helpful in helping me with my project! We ended up getting our bathroom from here as well and can't wait for it to be completed.

I urgently needed gas for my barbecue and headed to Homebase St Albans close to closing time. I was met by an absolute gentleman who was calm, helpful, and an amazing communicator. He assisted me in purchasing a new attachment and gas cylinder for my old propane tank without any rush. I'm incredibly thankful for the outstanding service and highly recommend this store.

Christmas has come to Homebase St Albans! Really good selection of Christmas decorations this year along with really helpful and friendly staff.

It's a few years since I visited a Homebase store. They had a huge selection of items and some of the staff were very helpful. My main problem was the pricing policy. I went in to buy a curtain rod. I only wanted a little one to cover the entrance to a built in wardrobe. I found one marked clearly at £11. The description on the price tag fitted the item underneath. When I got to the checkout is was £22. I put it back on the shelf. I then went to the returns desk to show the photograph and explain that the pricing was misleading. They told me that the price ticket was for the item above it. I went back and couldn't see an item above it! I then decided I'd like a birdtable for my back garden. I found one and was pleased to read it was 'half price'. Again, when I got to the checkout I found out it was the full price marked on the label. The assistant took me back to the shelf and showed me the tiny print on the label saying that the original price was twice the marked one. Are they being deliberately misleading?!

I'm very happy with my shopping there. I bought a lovely gazebo there - 3x6 m discounted to 70£ from 140£! A burgain! 😊
