I have known about this treasure trove since I met my wife in 1999. We live near Corby so its wonderful to have such a helpful local DIY store that are able to help my disabled but independent mother in law. She recently needed a little screw repairing on her ring door bell and knew exactly where to go for help. Mars as they are known locally visited her but told her how much they would charge which was minimal before they visited. She is now safe and secure with her repaired and fully charged Ring doorbell. The shop is like the Doctors Tardis which seems massive inside despite being

Rude lady at the till, word of advice, if your coloured, do not visit this shop as they clearly don’t want your custom!

Popped in today for some plants to be met by an extremely rude lady at the till! Appears this shop does not appreciate darker customers as Ive heard similar experiences in the past from people of colour. Not surprising however is that the 5* reviewers happen to not be of colour. Learn some manners and try some politeness, it costs nothing.

I have just used this company for the first time for a large delivery of garden manure and compost and the service and value are absolutely excellent and I cannot recommend highly enough. I will definitely be using again.
Update - Four years on and I am still using John Maher every year for their excellent service and prices and now my friend has started using them too.
