The trade, home improvers and self-builders all trust us to deliver a lot more than tools. So, our colleagues in our Head Office and Contact Centre in Bridgwater, at our Distribution Centres in Bridgwater, Middleton, Redditch and Daventry, and in our network of over 500 branches throughout the UK, work together to get the job done. And with plans to open another 60 branches next year, we always have opportunities for great people who want to grow with us.
