Good value range of equipment, much more a proper DIY store than a homeware store. This is the…read moreplace to go if you want to buy building supplies, not curtains! The opening hours of Wickes are excellent, opening 7 days a week with late nights during the week. Car parking is plentiful so you can park the biggest van to collect all your goodies! The only downside is that you can only buy Wickes branded items in a Wickes store. Clearly, not brilliant if you want to buy a decent paint as with the best will in the world it is unlikely that own branded paint is as good as the likes of Dulux and Crown. If you want easy accessibility, a wide range of (own brand) building supplies and a nice big store to browse through then this is the place for you.

This is a smallish store (by US standards) but has a very wide variety of household products. I…read moreagree with a previous reviewer who describes it as an old fashioned hardware store. 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. I will keep it in mind as I did not know about it before.

If you only need one thing it is probably just as cheap to come here and far easier. And they sell things individually so if you only want 1 screw to finish a job but it has to be an exact size then this is a far better option.

You can also go in and talk about what you think you need, and they will give you suggestion and ideas on how to do things quicker, cheaper and more robustly. You can buy single or multiple screws, in just about every size and thread, and everything i've ever needed has been in stock - from bird food to cable to key cutting and paint. They cut pieces of wood to specific dimensions for a small amount of money, and this makes most things much easier. They work in both metric and imperial measurements. It is a great place for whatever odds and ends you may ever need.

It doesn't matter what sort of DIY your trying to do there is always someone there who has the necessary knowledge to help you. It's only a small store but they make the most of the space and it's packed full of stuff, which although not as cheap as the superstores is worth it for the back up you get. The most handy thing they have is off to the side of the store. If you want wood cut to size they have a wall mounted cutter and will happily cut boards and planks to your exact requirements. I've not been here in some time but they certainly know their stuff and it's worth using them over anyone else in the area.

This is no longer Blooms of Bressingham, they were taken over by Wyevale some time ago and have…read moresince demolished the old Blooms buildings and constructed a little out of town retail centre together with a huge garden centre. The garden centre is now ENORMOUS! You get to it by walking down a mall with various other shops there - Cotswold, Hobbycraft, Lakeland etc. When you're in the garden centre you immediately see a nice cafe on your left and a smaller coffee bar as well. Straight ahead of you is the outdoor area where there is a huge selection of plants, sculptures and furniture. There's even a section dedicated to paving as well. Back inside you'll find an upmarket food hall and a nice selection of furniture/homewares. There is also an area for bulbs and garden tools inside. The best thing about this time of year is that there is a great christmas shop as well!
