DIY stores in Portlaoise

tokenv

I'm looking for DIY stores, mostly selling (large) timber boards, screws, metal legs etc. What you need to essentially create own furniture with specific size requirements.

It seems Homebase is in town but I can't see it on Google street, maybe it's been opened recently? I've found others but again can't find them on google maps/streetview so I'm wondering if they closed down or the address was inaccurate etc.

Hombase

Telfords

Manoffeeling

Also, Gings in Kealew Bus Park. I find them good on price.

do they sell timber boards?

All those places sell timber, what kind of boards are you looking for? You can get sheet materials (MDF, chipboard or laminated pineboard) in all those places; Homebase will be the most expensive by a long shot, Telfords have a good range and will be more competitive, Gings are generally better value but you may not find what you want there. Same goes for planed softwood, Homebase will probably have what you want but you'll pay very, very dearly for it, likewise for screws, fixings etc. Always go to a builder's providers first if you want to keep more cash in your pocket!

Thanks for all the info! I'm just interested in simple pieces to make a table or simple cupboard etc.

By the way do any of these sellers do home deliveries?

Try Gings first and ask for christy

Telfords have the biggest range and the best prices.

as an example do you know how much a 150cm x 70cm x 2cm wooden (pine) board would cost at those places?
