I ended up finding the cable ties that I needed, after searching many other stores. The staff was helpful and directed me to the product I needed.

They will find a solution to your problems and they will sell you the best item for your needs, not the dearest. Highly recommended.

They do quite a good range of products although I have found that they are quite expensive compared with some of the more well know bigger DIY stores, but handy if you are in Rushen High Street and need some DIY bits and bobs. They sell all the regular DIY stuff, paint, wallpaper, and also garden items as well as plants and hanging baskets in the summer which are pretty good value. They also have a small range of kitchen and hardware items. It always seems a bit quiet in the store though and you do sometimes feel as if you are being watched. I think they could do with some background music to make it a more enjoyable shopping experience.

Outside they also display their wares, so it's a real experience before you even enter the shop! Gilbert's has an extensive collection of almost everything, and the shopkeepers have excellent product knowledge. My most pleasant experience is when I bought a quality set of salt and pepper grinders - with lifetime warranty - for a tenner...! After enquiring if I needed help I advised what I was looking for. Seconds later they produced a few different sets matching what I'd described and were talking me through each one. I made my selection and the sale was complete. 3 years later and they're grinding corns and crystals as good as the day I bought them. Only bad point is they close for a half day on wednesdays. But that somehow adds to the charm.
