The Easter<\/a> break is finally here \u2013 so why not do those home improvement bits and bobs you\u2019ve been putting off since, well, last Easter?<\/p>\n

This year, Easter weekend<\/a>\u00a0will begin with Good Friday (April 18) and stretch over Easter Sunday (April 20) and Easter Monday (April 21).<\/p>\n

Historically, shops close early over the Easter weekend. <\/p>\n

In England<\/a>, Wales<\/a> and Northern Ireland, shops that are more than 280 square metres have to close on Easter Sunday, with the break being a four-day weekend. <\/p>\n

So, if you\u2019re looking to pick up some\u00a0DIY<\/a>\u00a0supplies from shops like Homebase or Wickes, what are their open times over the Easter weekend?<\/p>\n

Here is what you need to know.<\/p>\n

However, stores will be closed on Easter Sunday, except those in Scotland, where the doors will open from 9am to 6pm.<\/p>\n

On Easter Monday, your local B&Q should be open from 7am to 8pm. Though, depending on where in the UK you are, they might open their doors at 8am.<\/p>\n

You can use\u00a0B&Q\u2019s store finder<\/a>\u00a0to track down your local branch to check its specific open hours and check for regional variations. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to do a little work in the garden over the bank holiday weekend, make sure you check when Homebase is open.<\/p>\n

Shops in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland will be open from 8am to 8pm on Good Friday and 8am to 7pm on Saturday. <\/p>\n

Branches will be shuttered on Easter Sunday; though normal trading hours will operate that day if you live in Scotland or Ireland. <\/p>\n

On Easter Sunday, Homebase doors will open from 8am to 8pm. <\/p>\n

Homebase has said that some of its stores around the country may vary their opening hours a bit so it\u2019s best to use the store locator <\/a>and check when your local branch is open.<\/p>\n

Wickes is second only to B&Q when it comes to all things home improvement. <\/p>\n

And just like B&Q, whether your nearest Wickes\u00a0is open depends on where in the UK it is. <\/p>\n
