Good evening. I ordered 300 bricks. I returned 200 bricks. I am supposed to have 100 left but i only have 46 bricks left. I informed the ladies and they made a copy of the slip they further told me they will have to check the cameras and that they will call me back. Till today no response from those ladies. I called the shop again and was given a reference number. I was told that i will receive a call. Till today no response and its almost month end. Is this how u do business.

This is a DIY guys paradise as if you dont find what you need for home improvements or construction here you are going to be hard pressed to find it anywhere else. Come around and prove me wrong.

Been there today to buy a pressure washer. Staff not interested to help and sent us from one to the next. Finally we found what we were looking for on our own and tried to get further information. Guess what? Same attitude. We left. Will buy at Brights.

Great place to purchase all your DIY goodies. Large store, variety of items.Pity about the absence of staff. Im not the most skilled in the building department, so I often look for a store clerk to assist with questions I might have regarding certain products. Very hard to find someone, but when you do theyre generally quite helpful.Security staff at the door are friendly too.

Great variety of hardware, hand tools, power tools, bathroom ware, garden items, pool items, building materials and so much more. Really a warehouse. Great competitive prices too and fast and friendly service as well. Cleaning in shelves and around the building can improve a lot. Definitely worth a visit, you wont be disappointed.

Well stocked but cant find prices of the items I was interested in and assistance was a bit hard to find. I do understand less staff due to Covid. Otherwise great shop.

I am familiar with the flow and have been a customer since the years when I was doing house renovation and deco.Builders warehouse never failed me then and I am still a loyal customer. I love Builders warehouse

No sales people when you need advice. Went for advise on paint swatches for exterior. Spent about 20 minutes for help. None received. Left the store with a booklet that was not helpful at all.

DO NOT COME HERE. THEY ARE THE WORST HARDWARE. (crooks!)They only want to make money off of you and will NOT refund you even if the product is Clearly defective/default.Rather try Brights instead.

I have ordered an Item a month ago onliune. And since then it said to be collected on 10/06/2021. To date I have not received a single update as well as no effort has been done to assist me telephonically (just get thrown around in call queues that times out) to get me my order or to give an update and I have already spent more than enough money on making calls and waiting in the call queue to be assisted. Please assist or get back to me as a matter of URGENCY!

Wow, an actual reply to my review! This calls for an edit of my original review so here goes!My initial review was just the 5 stars, I didnt include any written body of text but because Builders was so kind to thank me for my review I think I should return the favor and go a little more in detail..So where do I begin? My arrival at their warehouse was pleasant enough, there was enough parking space, I managed to find a secluded enough parking area because I was embarrassed to park near the other shoppers incase my car refused to start. Which it did but luckily I got it going after 4 or 5 attempts.Upon entry theres an employee who sees to it that your hands are sanitized, with a smile and a warm greeting of course. Thats always a plus in my book, most other places the guy on duty look at you like youve come to spread the bubonic plague. Full points for reception, this guy didnt even blink at my dirty blue overall and oil covered safety boots.My experience inside the shop continued with this trend, the staff nodded at me happily as if to let me know theyre available if I needed any help. Ofcourse I did. I wasnt too sure which door handle would fit on my front door and sure enough there was a kind gentleman who showed me around, putting my mind at ease that Im making the right purchase. Which it was. Thanks for that!The checking out experience couldnt have been better. No long lines, I was standing behind another gentleman but then out of nowhere a cashier appeared behind a vacant tillpoint and called me over. Again a warm welcome and wishing me well on my way after I paid for my items.Only thing I was left confused about was where I parked my car because I went out the wrong entrance and had to walk all the way around to the other side where I found my car, and there was an attendant on hand to keep my car safe where I parked it, away from other cars out of embarrasment that it wouldnt start. Attendant guy noticed this and he was eager to offer help but thankfully I got my engine running.All in all, very pleasant experience and would recommend this place to anyone looking to buy anything hardware related. Thank you Builders Tygerberg!

So for not a good experience, helpfull staff in store, but delivery is a big issue. Feedback and communication requires serious attention.National customer care has been helpfull, but this does not resolve the issues.

Be very careful of placing online orders. Builders will double charge your card, and then cancel the delivery. Once you go into a huge fight about it, and have to give them all the proof, then only do they sort it out. Then when delivery actually happens (7 days later), the drivers only come to your estate and then turn around. I have to call again to make arrangements for delivery again. Thanks, but you wont see me again.

Location is great but attracts a lot of thefts. Parking is also not so great coz theres lot of people standing out there and they can easily rob you. Above all, builders warehouse just needs to do something about alot of people standing in their entrance

Worse shopping experience ever. Not only does the staff NOT know the items, the place is full compacted with only 2 workers helping about 15 people in a line DURING COVID. Really unbearable, not even to mention how we tried to exit and they literally have a Yard with empty parking that seems like an exit but its not. Its just a gate with extra parking. Like who tf does that?

Review №85

Absolutely PATHETIC service. The staff is clueless and the manager has no manners. Cuts me off when I speak to him. No eye contact. No respect.I had to go into the yard to collect a shed. Stood around for half an hour waiting for someone to help me. Eventually I was on top of the shelves in the warehouse helping them look because no one knew where my item was.Stood around waiting for another 10 minutes before someone finally decided to come and tell me that I had to drive back to the store and take the display unit.THE MOST USELESS AND SHOCKING SERVICE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED FROM A BUILDERS WAREHOUSE STORE.One star rating is too many.

Ive had terrible service after ordering a product online. The item was due four days ago, but never arrived. The online order info says that it is COMPLETED. Ive spoken to several support staff (not from the Tygerberg branch) who have assured me that the relevant people (Tygerberg manager or the person who processed my order) will be in contact shortly, but it never happens. Its very easy to talk to people who are willing to escalate the problem, but good luck finding someone who has any power to help. I just want the product I paid for.

Well stocked branch, but the service is slow to non-existence. Asked for help at the cupboard section and waited 10 - 15 minutes, this was after they called someone who never pitched. Every- time I go there, their cashiers and contractors counters are understaffed and you wait forever to pay or enquire about something. I am unfortunately forced to use this branch because it is within 5 minutes of me.

Unfortunately, the first cashier I delt with was way off. I asked for 2 bags of All Purpose cement, she told the dont sell such a thing. I then said any cement you have, she rang up 1 bag instead of 2 bag, Surecement. On collection, surecement out of stock,which meant I had to go and log in a return. Walk walk walk walk.At returns, the lady there, sent me back to collection, a member of staff should had come with me, walk walk walk back to collections, back again, and yet again to cashiers. How exhausting!

Review №97

I have given this store one star but they actually dont deserve it. I am a huge fan of Builders and each time I have visited various stores I have been nothing but satisfied and pleased. The staff are always particularly helpful, especially at the store located at N1 City.I was searching for a workbench which I saw at the N1 City branch but they did not have it in stock, I was consequently referred to other stores. I then visited the Kenilworth express, enquired online as well as calling the Call Centre. I was then sent to the Tygerberg store which had the table on display, it had boxes packed on top of it and I enquired whether I could buy it at a lower price because it had obviously been used for the purpose of packing. The gentleman who managed the area was clearly uninterested and after being prompted called the manager.The manager then agreed that he would sell me the table at a reduced price. The table was already assembled and for me to transport it(in a Mk1 Golf, thank you very much) it needed to be disassembled.I then asked the gentleman to get the tools in order to do the job, (prompted again) so that I could leave with the table in a box. He returned after a few minutes telling me that the handyman had already left for the day.All he could have done was to ask me to come back the following day and have it disassembled before then.To my disappointment, he shrugged his shoulders and moved on. I am seriously disappointed, even as a woman I would have handled that better, I would have literally found the tool or thought of some way to make it happen. He was unfortunately not interested enough,maybe because it was 17h10 and knock off was at 1800 or maybe he just didnt care...
