Specials were good but offset by delivery costs. Felt a bit disorganized to me. One consultant could not help me for some items, had to talk to another. Got wheelbarrow cheaper at another supplier after they promised that I could still get at special.
In terms of variety...they have pretty much everything...which kind of makes it difficult to navigate the store. The sales people really need to be more hands on. I went in with a big list of items...and we had to find someone to help us. The gentleman who did was really wonderful. He sits at the paint section. But numerous people passed us with nobody offering assistance. Yes it was 16h30...but it was also almost a R5000 sale. Overall I am happy with the store though. Decent pricing and massive variety.
Being a builder my self i found that the service there was pleasurably upheld as they showed not only all i wanted for the build but that which i missed, more over i like thier dec, its inspirational
Prices at the time of my comment are really competitive. They dont have all the items you would need if going regular maintenance shopping. However the ones they do have are good quality.
Best prices, Best Service Best Quality of Products
Yes I bought paints there awesome experience and we kept social distance and a queue. I was so fortunate to get paint that was on special greatful indeed. Helpful staff and they also assist me with quotation. I recommend to people still one of the best place to buy hardware goodies
Jacqueline is the best sales lady in the shop. Good friendly service with a smile!
An awesome place for the DIY man and WELL priced and great service love to go to them
Stuff on spesial has not been deliverd can not get it
Best value for money and frindly service
I got the best advice from the lady who worked in the plumbing department in the store. I wasnt sure which part to buy and she gave me a very good comparison and it was the best. The item I bought was just perfect.
Can find most of your building supplies at reasonable prices
Karabo was of great help...... Thanks Buddy
Extremely disappointed with the arrogant paint mixing helper. He was busy with a customer in excess of half an hour and i ask him if someone else could assist me and his response was rude and racists. I left all my purchases on the counter and left. Will never ever buy at any Carrim brach again. I will rather drive from Brits area to Chamberlains in the east as they supply superior service.
Found most of the stuff I needed and they even recommended better, cheaper products than the ones I took
A busy area. Their service is a bit slow.
Clean and efficient service. Not crowded and great value for money
Never has stock. Promise to get from other stores never arrives. You can wait for over 5 weeks and go in store to check if stock arrived. Because that call you back never happens. Why advertise products on sale but never in stock from day one.
Friendly, helpful staff.
Still waiting for a refund 9 days later, and counting. No one is willing to help. They take your number and say theyll call back, they wont call you back. Im extremely disappointed in Carrim, I have never been treated with such contempt.
Rubish over priced and disrespecting customers and no promises of good service
Those guys at the door are very helpful. Although i didnt get a 9 kg GAS. Came back twice morning and afternoon still nothing
Staff not helpfull. 5 diiferent people to assist. Payment problems as measurements given did not match till slips. It was a headache to buy 5 different items.
Everything you need at affordable prices
Slow moving queue. Very slow.After about 30 minutes+ you can finally buy the one item you came for.
Carrim Builders is so friendly and good to they Customers from DiD Projects PTY Ltd
Went in for special no stock havent received it. Maybe next week. Then special is over.
Their service is top notch and their prices are very affordable. They deliver anywhere in Pretoria, I was happy with the service I received
Their prices are very competitive
Cashier that assisted me was extremely friendly.
Very good service.Manager is very knowledgeable on the products
Got my building materials! Awesome
Convince at its best. Best Service ever
Got great discount because I had to wait so they can finish with a client.
Reasonably priced building material.
Service is slow waited for an hour to get a quotation and waited for 30mins to get my stuff
Well trained staff and outstanding service
Best shop ever, clean and smart with organized people capital group
Service every poor been wilaiting for 3hours even now they are all so slow even the floor managers useless never again
Dont expect good service, if you know what you want and you can look for this yourself, then you should be okay
Wonderful prices, but horrible service from staff, if you’re not white or of oriental race mostly from the oriental race workers.
Good service every time. Everything i need. Staff are friendly and helpful
Plumbing section needs training,could barely assist with pipe fitting size
All your building requirement at right prices
The Van Der Hoff staff not helpful and rude, only two cashiers availabe. Clients are standing in line for some time while the cashiers are slow and prioritizing people who refuses to queue. No ventilation and narrow enclosed space disignated for people who are in line. Poor experience and I would not recommend this shop.
Top notch quality assurance
It has most of what you would expect from your building material selling store, the prices are in line with most building stores prices. If you dont mind spending and are you are in a rush than this place is perfect for you.
Big variety unfortunately staff is not assisting immediately you have to ask for assistance
Plse ManagementYou cant let the contractor work while the costumers are in the store. Worse he was on the step ladder. Consumers walk passing next to the ladder. And the drill making noise.For safety, those kind of projects should be carried out in the absence of the costumers. 16 Dec 2020.
Very friendly staff and very helpful
Good quality items sold here!
Shortage of power tools
Good reception. Sanitize before entry, no mask no entry policy politely enforced. Good social distancing towards the payment clerks. Polite checkers at exit. All together good experience. Price of items reasonable. I will go back again. Thumbs up for Carrim van der hof.
They have best decor
Affordable building materials
I had a great service experience with the guys at Carrim Hardware-Pretoria Gardens. From the quotation team the service was superb. They took me around giving all the details on how to best use and apply certain materials before I could even buy.I would recommend to anyone to buy there. My own experience at the shop. 👌🏿
Big space and have everything goods in place
The people at K.Carrim Builders hardware shop in Van der Hoff weg doesnt know what client service is! I when there 2 times and they could not gave me what I want. Today I when there to buy same skirting, but could not find it. I wait a while and nobody come and asked if they can help me. I wont go there again.
Chris is very helpful always
Dont even bother 🙄
Their special Bonanza is affordable
No answer. Waiting for assistance. Nobody answers the phone.
Friendly salespeople, but limited stock.Looking for toilets cisterns with side handles but was told that you do not sell them.
Nice and helpful
Found it challenging to get help on the floor. When I eventually got help the staff where unable to direct me to the material I was looking for. Eventually I found it myself a while later. Parking lot could use some TLC. The staff member at the till where very friendly.
Limited variety availible, no staff that could assist had to wait 20 min to be attended to
Overall ok they need to sharpen up on their stock...
WeakAt paypointCant even great just bad service
Both the gentleman at plumbing and a Miss Trudy were of great help when I had some issues with my plumbing equipment as well as no hassle on some items I need to return and exchange. Thank you again for great service.
Nice service
It is affordable
Good place
Great place for good deals. Only problem is the branch in VD Hoff rarely opens on time Which is 7:30. Many days i have to wait 10-20 minutes before the doors open and even then everything inside is not ready as its another waiting game for systems to be turned on and staff to get their stations ready. Today its 07:56 and still not open so ill be leaving .Other than that i have no complaints
I have been trading with this branch for two years now... top service, widest range and customer care ... ask for Dina or Ismail... for great savings and discounts on bulk buying for all your building needs...
The only decent sales person at this shop is Sietse. I use to struggle getting help from any another person, if they are on their post.
Good service and always get what I need.
Poor service, not willing to replace items and putting blame on client, rude.
Service was excellent
Again... today I visited the store in van der Hoff Road. In the electrical Department the Indian music is so loud the salesman and myself could not here each other. This is a great concern to me as I feel I want prompt service and I really feel it is not appropriate to expect customers and sales staff should scream at each other. Maybe look at that because it is very annoying.
Not a happy customer, service need to be improved big time.
Slow delivery
Affordable prices, their service is good especially MR Feroz
Quick service
Good customer
I dont shop there much. I come out from there most times empty handed because I cant find what I really need. Many items are really cheap, because they are cheap and a person can see it will not last. So you pass and go somewhere else to get item of better quality for a little more.
Value for money
Not customer focused. I spend easily R50k pm on building materials. Have approached them twice to buy items. First time on big LED mirrors on which I waited about 15 to 20 minutes for the sales guy to help but he was rather interested to make small talk to someone else. Next time called to find out prices on kerbs on which the sales guy used any excuse not to give a price eg I must first come in to select or he must first call the supplier to find out prices. So I have never bought there because every time they waste my time.
Very nice place to shop, lots of specials and good prices.
1 of the best hardwares in Pretoria. As soon as you walk into the Pretoria gardens store they trained team welcomes you and go out off their way to help us. From Mr Mohammed, Mr Ismail, Mr Dina, Mr Chris, Mrs Shanitha and their trained team always willing to go the extra mile for us. Thanks you guys for making our buying experience pleasant.
Good and nice
Good prices
Wide variety at very good prices
Pathetic service. The staff are extremely rude. I will never take any bussines back to Carrim Hermanstad.I will not recommend any bussines for this branch as they are very rude.Clearly they do not need any more customers in their shop during an already very dufficult market and recesion. Useless
Nice place to shop
Iam an old customer but today I was disappointed ito service delivery etc
Good prices and discount
Very slow
People are unfriendly, nobody interesting in helping you. At the pay points very, very unfriendly personel.
