Helpful and thoughtful stafff
I booked a top up of the gravel on the internet. This was by far the best price for the gravel. The Bradfords staff called to book delivery and very kindly noticed I had bought a different size gravel to before and rectified this for me - really appreciated.
Delivery was on time and staff were as polite as ever. It would have been helpful if he would have let me move the car further to allow for better positioning of bags.
Otherwise I have been delighted with the customer service, promptness and communication from all involved. Thank you

Excellent Branch Manager!
Branch Manager Toby Symes was absolutely excellent and sorted out my boiler warranty issues. He was very helpful and managed to get the manufactures engineer to come out and fix my boiler even though they were adamant my boiler was out of warranty and not even registered (which was not the case). I cannot thank Toby enough for sorting out the issues, I was without hot water and heating during lockdown for many days.

I was looking on Amazon to purchase a site radio when I discovered that the best deal on offer was on my doorstep at Bradfords.
I did a click and collect purchase and first thing in the morning had a call to say that it was ready and waiting to be picked up.
Perfect process.

Painless process from start to finish
The website is easy to navigate, I receive a call the same or next day (depending on the time of day I order) thanking me for my order and letting me know when it will be delivered.
The delivery driver is always friendly and helpful, the whole process is painless from start to finish.
