Don’t bother with this place unless you want wire or backboxes. Any thing else they don’t have any product knowledge. We have bought led lighting, EV charges and alarms. A lot of it didn’t work and the seller didn’t have a clue how it worked. Nightmare firm keep away

The lads at the Huddersfield branch are great, a couple of them are slow at getting things but age comes to us all eventually, coffee machine is terrible and never stocked up causing me to spend a fortune at costa coffee. The building is in desperate need of repair and feels unsafe when inside. Lee heads is smaller than most displays put out but if if look hard enough you can eventually see him.
