The order process was super easy and good. The collection part was a little bit of a disappointment with one of the pots having dirt inside and looking pretty scuffed up.

Delivery driver put a glass table over a 6ft fence and broke all my lighting on my decking and did not put anything through my door to say it was there in the heavy rain

The service at The Range in Southend was absolutely terrible. Only one person could get my order although there were plenty of staff and a queue of people
Store looked very tired and dirty

Service team delaying refund of incorrect items
I was sent items that were not as described. The images and description of stake lights do not match what I was sent. Instead, I’ve been sent gaudy versions with tacky swirls. I’ve logged a return request and the customer service team are delaying my return to investigate the issue, asking for additional images. To be clear, as the items are not as described, I’m entitled to a refund based on the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Other companies are better are arranging refunds for returns, with no issue or delay. This is a strange tactic.

Excellent and very quick service. All ready within 15 minutes but it was the ''RANGE''pick up. No homebase in my local town anymore.

Items were not delivered and returned…
Items were not delivered and returned as the courier said there was no house number. The address was a school, which makes it very obvious from the big sign. Despite trying to contact both the courier and Homebase, we were only able to message a ‘bot’ who could not help.

Ordered paint online
Ordered paint online. Difficult to find click and collect - suggest clearer signage. Had to wander about - eventually found an assistant who was able to direct me. Unfortunately paint wasn't good - streaky, even after a good stir. Obviously offered a refund but it isn't convenient - right over the other side of town. Won't order click and collect again from this store due to location of the store + poor quality of item.

I joined as a member and ordered a parasol base but I cannot track it as the website will not recognise my postcode and it's not a new build, what an absolute disgrace so no updates or access to information.
Update: 30/07/2026
The item has turned up quicker than advertised which is great but that's where the positivity stopped.
The vertical foot pole is missing, tried to call but the Custmer Service number always engaged(checked online and it appears intentional due to low staff), no live chat bubble hence email is the only way to communicate with Homebase customer services, I sent an email with pictures, got a automated response then finally Ally responded and said that another team will get back to me within 48 hours!!!!
Update 04/08/2026
The HB team have been very communicative and while there is a lag between messages they have worked hard to address and resolve the issue which has now been done.
Despite the lack of direct communication opportunity they have done well.
