"You never get a second chance to make a first impression" 100% correct

[@ronmatthews1738]

Travis Perkins lists that gun at £10.36 + VAT which takes it to twelve and a half quid. Meanwhile the same thing is £3.49 in Wickes and £2.95 in my local hardware shop. I walked out of my local Travis Perkins over ten years ago because I couldn't believe their prices. I don't understand how they can stay in business in a free market.

[@Stucrompton1]

i know ron madness, i suppose they only reward those that buy lots off them

[@thomasanstiss469]

Crazy thing is tool station Wickes and Travis are all owned by the same parent company. Prices in Travis as trade account holders should be 10 percent cheaper than Wickes at very least.

05:29 GARLIC BREAD?! Peter Kay does windows 😂😂😂

[@Nightcon1985]

thanks for this video.... using the knowledge you imparted in this video i managed to fit my used french doors to my shed/summer house and get the glazing in them perfectly :)

[@iwashere5827]

I'm addicted to your videos Stu. I'm learning a lot. Keep up the good work 👍🙂

[@Stucrompton1]

Glad you are thanks Steve

[@jamesthornber6991]

Good on you stu pal.well said.100% on Ur side 😁👍🏻

[@adambradley8645]

Every time it's been handy to nip to travis for a few bits, I get the same service, how they keep going amazes me, you cannot beat a family run merchants for honesty and service. Nearly every time I've delt with travis I've had the same, I only use them if I have to stu.

[@garrywilson9522]

This guy is brilliant what a joy to hear no bull well done guys🎉

[@BrasherFox]

Got half a dozen bricks to patch a hole in the wall where an extractor fan had been, charged me £16 at the one and same TP in Ashton. There is a diy shop accross the road which is cheaper for odds and ends. Likeing your videos.

[@paulbrimelow]

We live near CW Berry's in Leyland. Got to be the best builders merchants in the UK. Good prices for everyone, really helpful, great delivery drivers. A real class act. Deliver to Wigan too, Stu. The funny thing is, Travis Perkins is round the corner from Berry's- can't fathom out what they do all day- can't possibly have any customers!

[@jimbrown8399]

Lesson learnt Stu, I always have @ least 2 of everything, I also think what tools I will need & check before I head out. I would of asked how many tubes of silicone come with the Gun. These guns are about 2 Quid over here in OZ. I have never missed the Rotten weather. Nice job once again. I felt the cold just watching this Ha Ha

[@markadams2723]

I’ve had the same down here in somerset with travis Perkins stu

[@mr.nebbercracker.9041]

wish i had them doors installed in our house

[@anthonyhoran2543]

There use to be a time when TP were competitive........... but now they are the same over here in Lincolnshire. Screwfix or toolstation every time.

[@mr.nebbercracker.9041]

i live in offerton witch shop can i go to not far away like that door i want a door with a close gap on the double door

[@elements3492]

Brilliant ✔

[@danielwhetstone5632]

@stu crompton hi would you recommend using 2x1 lath to use as batons to fix plastboard to polycarbonate sheets. Would the conservatory hold the weight do you think

[@mr.nebbercracker.9041]

is that the new shamfered c70 or new. because the old ones are easy to break into

[@barricade7048]

Where did you get the doors from?

[@fuzmaginty5822]

stu just a quick question m8 why did you put a packer over the trickle vent hole?? just wondering

[@tjaayr1356]

How much does something like this cost all in all? I’m needing mine done be much appreciated?

[@finlayallen]

Another good job

[@Stucrompton1]

thanks john

[@mr.nebbercracker.9041]

[@rapidunet1]

[@mygte6219]

[@samirdoctor5259]

Thanks

[@liamsmith1400]

Should shop at P and R really good their might be a little far from where u work tho

[@zedman442]

Nice work mate. Silicon gun gate lol. I know what you mean though. I remember a merchants I went to as I was short on something was only a few quid, anyway asked the guy at the counter if he had any and he went out the back and fetched it me. Spot on mate I said just what I'm after, how much I owe you? Don't worry about mate he goes. Never been to this merchants before but guess what that's now a regular place for me because of that small gesture. I do like you motto too, never be able to make a first impression again. Sound advice. Travis Perkins take head! To be fair though the one local to me ain't too bad. I guess it's the luck of the draw.

[@Stucrompton1]

+Zed Man cheers mate, it's all about being fair 👍

[@herlindoperez575]

😊👌 buena puertas pesas PVC blanco 😊😉😚👍.

[@shawnlion4778]

Nice

[@davidrobbodr]

Hi wondered if i could get some advice my upvc french doors after shutting them theres a small gap at the top of the door near the middle between the seal and frame any clues how to close this gap up

[@Stucrompton1]

the doors have dropped because they were installed incorectly, you need to take both panes of glass out and re pack them heel and toe :)

[@andytaylor9032]

Same here in Lincolnshire , never use TP for owt! Bloody rip off

[@phrdcstl]

It's not just Ashton, all Travis Perkins do it.. I stopped using them

[@markdemark2445]

You covered the drainage holes at the bottom with your location blocks

[@hamann9991]

Please tell me you can make a bricklayer in the US $ 10,000? If a good specialist ac

[@mikemoore2574]

Liked the video, I’m near jct 17 of M60, how much to replace patio doors?

[@frank1847]

Around £29 50.

[@Danielgavito]

i payed £16.20 for 2 bags of Multifinish from travis perkins yesterday, safe to say i wont be going back!

[@Stucrompton1]

same here pal rip off

[@MrEricharper]

Are them doors made the wrong way round ? they are meant to open inover are they not? hinges on the outside as well

[@Stucrompton1]

you can have them opening in or out mate, opening out gives you more room inside, its up to the customer

[@scottwilson8116]

1:51 shows the cill drainage as open out so door is both manufactured correctly aswell as fitted correctly. Good job by the way.

[@vernondavies3686]

I had a monthly account for years. Had asked for the best price for a product I was using but was running short so I sent the client to buy another and she paid 70 pence +vat cheaper than I paid for the same product. She has no account there, and I confronted the manager about it. My account is closed. And every day I drive past and the car park is empty I have a smile on my face. The sooner they close down the better.

[@hamann9991]

which city are you from?

[@billiamc1969]

Do exterior doors swing out in your area? Here they swing in...great perfect work!!!

[@Stucrompton1]

+BeeFriendlyApiary they can open in or out to request, we just replaced what was in already.

[@MrEricharper]

I believe it`s fire regulations to open in as if something falls against them they cannot be opened fron the inside

[@benchippy8039]

Can’t think of conservatory doors ever opening in

[@MrWindermere123]

Opening inwards takes up floorspace and obstructs you if you leave the doors open in summer. Opening outwards also lets you clean the windows with the dirty water falling outside the house onto your patio or path.

[@ashleyrobinson7728]

Go screwfix, cheap and all staff really friendly

[@Stucrompton1]

screwfix was too far away ash

[@vikingofengland]

Customer service is king as far as I am concerned. If you are polite you get my business, if not then you wont.

[@TheCoupon77]

To all Travis and jewsons are rip offs. Selco/screwfix or toolstation is king if there is one near you.

[@danielwhetstone5632]

Truth Conspiracy did you know Travis Perkins own wickes &! toolstation? Crazy

[@alizcool1]

Why didn't you just look for a Screwfix? Or Toolstation? Or any local hardware store lol also did you just measure the opening and order doors to fit that online?

[@samirdoctor5259]

i like your all video

[@Stucrompton1]

Thanks buddy

[@samirdoctor5259]

[@muffin535]

The thing is Stu is,Travis Perkins own Screwfix.They will be buying these silicone guns in their thousands,paying peanuts for them.As you said they certainly were trying it on.Keep up these great videos with your dad.Love them all.

[@jubileeglass]

how much fitting a french door ? thanks

[@wythymanc5059]

Good vlogs m8 Travis rip off Perkins should av gone to bq at the snipe

[@martinthorpe3274]

Isn't Toolstation part of TP????

[@Chanesmyname]

Will remember...avoid Travis Perkins.

[@TheDajoca]

To be fair to TP, the sealant guns you showed were the cheapest of the cheap and there are always better, more expensive guns out there.

[@leer774]

Ha I'm from Abram went tp other day for some cls studwork timber (70 lengths)... He was £30 more than platt waz handymans!... Don't know how travis are still open I'll never go there again

[@MWProducer1133]

From sterling those frames ?

[@Stucrompton1]

[@yvonfem]

Wow even wickes don't charge that they dear anyway toolstation as cheap as anywhere else

[@zippydoodah1547]

Always tell them to use their magic fingers, travis always been robbers

[@johnbob82]

Braw!

[@rsg666]

Not surprising , I avoid TP up here in Scotland, rip off merchant's

[@Stucrompton1]

They are pal

[@Was_I_Here_before]

rsg666 me too mate. Im in aberdeen and never go near any of them.

[@paulwood7798]

And there in Stu is why I have not used Travis Perkins for five years and never will again.

[@rosscrook6066]

10% chance 🤔😂

[@r6chrisk]

Eh stu, t p tried to charge me £17.99 + vat for some 70mm screws... rip off merchants.. I’m not using them anymore

[@tomhunt6487]

Travis Perkins wanted £56 for a bulk bag of building sand today. I laughed in the guys face and went down the road lol

[@Stucrompton1]

+Tom Hunt Rip offs tom

[@yensabi]

I'd rather have my fingernails pulled off and my teeth pulled out with a pair of rusty pliers than step foot into a Travis ripoff Perkins merchants , they get away with selling stuff at that price to the big builders who are knocking up 200 house estates up and down the country and then think they can do it on a local scale in the small towns..........Total Tossers..... Apart from that , good work Stu and KC......👍

[@markfelts1128]

Travis perkins building sand is crap as well .

[@jamessliman]

0% chance 100% extortion come on Perkins WTF

[@samirdoctor5259]

is this uk

[@MrWindermere123]

Travis Perkins is nicknamed Top Prices even when you have an account. You can get a mastic gun for £1 in Poundland. Wickes are part of the Travis Perkins empire but for some reason undercut TP on cement, paving and other basics. TP has the advantage on deliveries though because Wickes will go only 10 miles from a store. TP will go to wherever your worksite is and with a truck that has rear-wheel steering can put your materials in a very tight spot. That's why I have a TP account - I live in the countryside on a bendy narrow lane.

[@scotttait2197]

£6.90 for a silicon gun is daylight robbery....should've asked where his mask was

[@andrewbrowning9329]

Should have reported it to trading standards

[@gbs2630]

Where e the bricklaying videos ???

[@gbs2630]

[@theandroids]

hate these doors as you cant just replace/change swing of the door you have to replace the whole frame.

[@rsqyoung]

Travis Perkins should think about prices, quality and service for everyone instead of supporting politically woke causes.

[@tm949]

I always avoid Travis Perkins. The branches in west London are way to expensive. And the customer service is awful.

[@vikingofengland]

A lot of these builders merchants are a horrible place to go if you are just a DIY'er. They treat you like scum. Unless you are in "the trade" then they think they can take the piss. So I don't bother and use Wickes, Bunnings, Screwfix or Toolstation.

[@Taterviewer76]

Travis are the biggest rip off merchants ever! I don't go near them!

[@topgrafter2007]

Travis and Jewsons are absolute rip offs! never used them in 20 yrs.

[@piano4014]

No need for the music

[@johnfisher8666]

too many ads, don't bother
