Our Repairs Process

If something goes wrong with your product, we may be able to have it repaired or arrange the delivery of a spare part. Have you tried calling our supplier helplines? This can often be the quickest way to resolve the issue without the need for a repair.

 

For power tools, many of our leading suppliers offer a fast and free repair service available through our stores or Customer Services. Using this service can often be the fastest way to get any problem put right.

 

  • Just keep an eye out for a ‘spanner’ icon on the product page – this means that the item is eligible for our repair service.

  • Power tools from top brands including Bosch, DeWalt, Festool, Hikoki, Makita and Einhell can all be repaired and returned to you.

  • Remember to register your extended power tool warranty with the manufacturer within 28 days of purchase! Please follow the manufacturer’s instructions to successfully register your warranty.

  • We don’t directly supply spare parts for all of the products we sell. If you’ve installed your product and encounter a fault, please contact us for help.

How To Cancel An Order

You can cancel your order at any time before it’s dispatched. Our pick-and-pack process is very quick, so it’s best to call us on 0330 333 3303 as soon as possible – our Contact Centre is open from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday. Alternatively, you can use our Cancellation Form.

 

  • If we can cancel your order before it leaves the warehouse, a full refund including delivery charges will be made to your original payment method within 14 days of cancellation. If it’s too late to cancel your order, you can still return the unused item using our returns procedure.
  • For items being delivered direct from the supplier, we may need to contact them to confirm whether your order can be cancelled. All cancellations are accepted or rejected at our discretion.
