A BIT ABOUT US
Behind the Counter
I started my business from our dining room back in September 2013 were I started supplying plumbing, log burners and fixings etc. It went really well so I thought I would make my garage at the side of the house into a little shop.
​
It went really well and was the step I needed to move on to my own shop.
It was a daunting task but it is something I have always wanted to do & the shop I moved into was a shop where I also used to be a paperboy which was quite lovely.
​
We started installing log burners with an old friend of mine and today he still installs them for me and we offer a superb service where we are a one stop shop for a complete install.
​
After being in there 5 years I had to make a decision with the business, do I go work for someone else or do I try and go bigger
.
With that I went for a building that as 4 units and everyone has a purpose, warehouse, shop, stove showroom and bathroom showroom.
​
After a year of being here, my good lady Zoe joined the family business. Zoe has taken on the role as Bathroom Manager and she is doing a super job spending time with customers and working to there budgets.
​
We have grown quite significantly over the last 2 years where we have also become a distributor for freefoam building plastics where we stock pvc fascias, trims, skirting, rainwater and pvc shower panels.
​
Where you can, please try to support the family businesses first, give them a chance.
