The business is a leading supplier of traditional British building, roofing and landscaping materials throughout the UK; whether to trade or to private individuals, the business can supply quality reclaimed and conserved building materials where the accurate portrayal of a building’s historic integrity is important.

The business enjoys a prime location in one of the most busy areas of Northamptonshire and benefits from its unique offering in providing a full and comprehensive portfolio of popular products. In fact, the business has everything anyone needs for projects of all sizes due to its considerable stock levels and extensive range. The staff are also pleased to offer an unofficial but trusted consulting service to customers, whether in regard to choosing the right products or indeed the appropriateness of a period piece.

Serving Northamptonshire, England and the whole of the British Isles, the business has always strived to lead the way in the promotion of conserving the quality of materials associated with the country’s built Heritage and can be involved in all aspects of building material conservation--from respectful demolition to preparation of recovered materials for re-use, the business has the expertise and facilities to make the most of all materials.

The business has grown considerably over the last few years, particularly as a result of the growth of restoring the UK’s older properties has taken hold and the business has also experienced a steady upsurge in demand from style-conscious developers wishing to enhance both new builds and refurbishment projects with distinguished traditional style.

The business’s central location also means it is easy to find, and by virtue of its proximity to major routes and shipping hubs in the UK, the business can easily and quickly distribute for projects throughout the country and worldwide.

The business has been established in the region for 26 years and is well known and regarded by new and existing customers; it is considered a part of the fabric of the business community. The vendors have been involved in the business since its first days of trading and can offer considerable advice and information concerning all aspects trading in the region.
The business is further supported by exemplary relations with key suppliers who have helped to ensure that client service and product quality is never compromised and that customers receive the highest possible quality of service, leading to the existing high levels of return custom. This commitment to suppliers and customers has underpinned this business’s abilities in service quality and sustained business success.
The business has invested to a suitable degree in technology and has an up to date administration and accounting system. The business also benefits from a very small requirement for customer credit and benefits from full EPOS Chip and Pin purchasing.
The business is an excellent opportunity for any business seeking an opportunity to expand their current services into this region or perhaps an owner manager choosing to take advantage of this established business avoiding time consuming, costly and risky start-up conditions.
