This May bank holiday weekend could be the perfect opportunity to do a DIY project or spruce up the garden.

Thankfully – unlike over Easter – most major DIY stores across the UK will still be open this weekend if you need supplies.

However, some may have restricted hours, and the delivery service timings may be different.

Here, we take a look at the opening times this bank holiday for B&Q, Wickes, Screwfix, and the Range, which has taken over several Homebase stores.
