Is there a B&Q in Ireland?

Yes. B&Q operates in Ireland through two physical stores in Dublin and a dedicated Irish website at B&Q Ireland official online store. The brand, owned by Kingfisher plc, entered the Republic of Ireland market several years ago and now serves Dublin shoppers from two retail parks. Its presence is more limited than in the UK—where there are over 300 stores—but the online store offers the full product range for home delivery across Ireland.

Both Dublin locations are confirmed: Liffey Valley and Tallaght. According to B&Q Ireland’s homepage, the company advertises free delivery on orders over €75 (subject to product and location), and a 90-day returns policy.

The upshot

Irish shoppers can buy from B&Q without leaving the country. The catch: the delivery promise on diy.ie conflicts with B&Q’s UK FAQ page, which states it cannot currently deliver to the Republic of Ireland—more on that below.

Where are B&Q stores in Ireland?

Where is the B&Q store in Liffey Valley?

  • Address: Liffey Valley Retail Park East, Coldcut Road, Clondalkin, Dublin D22 E892 (B&Q Liffey Valley store page)
  • Phone: +353 16 299 499
  • Hours: Monday–Saturday 7am–8pm, Sunday 10am–6pm

Where is the B&Q store in Tallaght?

  • Address: Belgard Retail Park, Belgard Road, Dublin 24 (B&Q official store finder)
  • Phone: +353 1 6804 650
  • Hours: As per Liffey Valley (check holiday exceptions)

Both stores are in purpose-built retail parks with ample parking. The Liffey Valley store is the larger of the two and stocks the full B&Q range, while Tallaght serves the south Dublin area. There are no B&Q stores outside Dublin in the Republic of Ireland as of 2025.

The pattern: B&Q’s Irish physical footprint is tiny compared to Woodies’ 30+ outlets nationwide. For anyone outside Dublin, the online store is the only option—assuming shipping actually works.

The implication: Dublin shoppers have two physical options, but anyone elsewhere in Ireland must rely on the online store, whose delivery promises are contradictory.

Which is cheaper, Woodies or B&Q?

There’s no blanket answer. Woodies and B&Q are direct competitors in the Irish DIY market, and pricing varies by category. The table below compares delivery costs and options.

Product Category B&Q (diy.ie) Woodies (woodies.ie)
Standard delivery (small items) €6 (under €75) €5.95 (2-3 working days)
Next-day delivery Not guaranteed €7.95
Free delivery threshold €75 None (€49 for some orders)
Click+Collect Free, 15 min Free, 4 hours

Trade buyers often turn to Screwfix (also owned by Kingfisher) for lower prices on tools and hardware. B&Q does not officially confirm a price-matching policy for Ireland, so it’s worth shopping around. Woodie’s delivery information page charges are primarily based on item weight, with bulky items costing up to €55.

The trade-off: if you need a bulky item like timber or a bathroom suite, Woodies’ flat €55 bulky delivery may be simpler than B&Q’s complex weight-based system—but B&Q’s in-store collection is faster.

What this means

B&Q’s 15-minute Click+Collect gives it a speed advantage for Dublin shoppers, but Woodies offers clearer, Ireland-specific pricing with no contradictions on delivery.

Does B&Q ship to Ireland?

This is where things get messy. B&Q Ireland’s homepage clearly states free delivery on orders over €75, and standard delivery for orders under €75 is €6. However, B&Q’s UK home delivery FAQ says it is “currently unable to deliver to the Republic of Ireland.” This contradiction suggests the FAQ may be outdated or that diy.ie handles fulfilment separately—possibly via a local warehouse or third-party carrier.

Next-day delivery is available on selected products but is not guaranteed, according to B&Q’s customer support delivery page. Bulk delivery excludes islands (including Ireland). Standard delivery can take anywhere from a few days up to 5 weeks, depending on the item.

The catch

Irish shoppers should treat B&Q’s delivery promise with caution. If the UK FAQ is accurate, diy.ie may not be able to fulfil orders to all Irish addresses. Always check the product page for shipping eligibility before ordering.

What this means: if you live in Dublin, visiting the store is the most reliable option. For delivery, Woodies offers clearer, Ireland-specific pricing with no contradictions.

Does B&Q have an online store?

Does B&Q offer Click+Collect in Dublin?

Yes. B&Q’s Irish online store offers the full product catalogue. You can order online for Click+Collect at either Dublin store, with collection typically ready in 15 minutes. This is faster than Woodies’ 4-hour Click+Collect window.

The returns policy allows 90 days for most items. If you can’t return in person, B&Q may arrange a home collection with a fee of up to £50 (€58), per B&Q Returns & Refunds page.

The catch: While Click+Collect is fast, the online ordering experience is undermined by delivery contradictions that leave Irish shoppers uncertain.

“Next-day delivery costs €7.95. Standard items cost €5.95 and are delivered in 2-3 working days.”

Woodie’s Delivery Information page (Irish retailer)

For Dublin-based DIYers, B&Q’s two stores and fast Click+Collect make it a solid option if you can pick up in person. But the shipping contradiction means anyone relying on delivery should think twice—or compare with Woodies, whose Ireland-specific logistics are clearer and more consistent. The B&Q Ireland website may still be the best starting point for browsing, but the final decision on where to buy will depend on whether you need it tomorrow or can wait a week. Dublin shoppers should prioritize in-store collection; delivery-dependent customers should check product-level shipping eligibility before ordering.
