Ah, bank holidays. Who doesn't love a long weekend to relax and unwind? But for some of us, it's also the perfect opportunity to tackle those pesky home improvement tasks that have been piling up. Well, if that sounds like you, then you're in luck because the first of two May bank holidays is here, giving you the chance to finally get those DIY projects done.
With the weather getting warmer and the days getting longer, it's also a great time to spruce up your garden and make it look stunning. And let's be honest, after being cooped up inside for the past year, we could all use a little fresh air and sunshine. Unfortunately, Friday's weather was a bit of a letdown, but it seems like the sun has decided to make an appearance this weekend. Perfect timing, right?
Now, before you head out to your local hardware store, you might want to double-check their opening times. Some stores tend to have different hours during bank holidays, so it's always best to be prepared. But don't worry, we've got you covered. Here's everything you need to know about the opening times for B&Q, Homebase, Wickes, and Screwfix.
Let's start with B&Q. Their stores will be open as usual during the Spring bank holiday. However, it's always a good idea to double-check the exact times online, just to be safe. Typically, they open at 7am or 8am and close at 8pm. But again, it's best to check your local store's opening times using B&Q's Store Finder.
Next up, we have Homebase. They've announced that their stores will be open from 8am to 7pm on the Spring bank holiday. So if you need any DIY or gardening supplies, head on over to your nearest Homebase. And if you're not sure where the nearest one is, you can use their Store Locator to find out.
Now, onto Wickes. They've also confirmed that their stores will be open as usual during the bank holiday. This means you can drop by anytime between 7am and 8pm to pick up all your DIY essentials. And just like the others, you can use their Store Locator to find your nearest Wickes.
Last but not least, we have Screwfix. Most of their stores in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland will be open as usual on the bank holiday, from 7am to 8pm. However, some branches may have different opening times, so it's best to use their Store Finder to check before you head out.
So there you have it, folks. You can now plan your bank holiday DIY shopping accordingly. Oh, and one last thing, if you're expecting any deliveries from Amazon, Evri, or Royal Mail today, don't hold your breath. It's highly unlikely that they will be working on the bank holiday. But hey, it's still a great day to relax and enjoy some well-deserved time off. Happy bank holiday, everyone!
