Whether it's fixing things around the house, sprucing up your home, or getting your hands dirty in the garden, the extra day off on August 26th gives us a chance to be productive.
However, it's important to plan ahead and check the opening hours of stores where you might need to purchase household or gardening items. Here's what you need to know about the opening and closing times for B&Q, Homebase, Wickes, and Screwfix over the bank holiday weekend.
Let's start with B&Q. Their stores will be open as usual on the bank holiday, with most locations opening at 7am or 8am and closing at 8pm. It's always a good idea to use their Store Finder to confirm the exact opening hours of your local store.
Homebase, on the other hand, may have reduced hours on the bank holiday. While some stores may open at their usual time, others may open later and close earlier than usual. It's best to check their Store Locator to see when your nearest store will be open.
Wickes has announced that all of their 230 stores will be open as usual on the bank holiday, from 7am until 8pm. However, it's still a good idea to confirm the hours of your local store using their Store Locator.
And finally, let's not forget about Screwfix. With 887 stores nationwide, there's bound to be one near you. On the bank holiday, most stores will be open from 7am until 8pm, but it's always a good idea to use their Store Finder to double check.
