Builders merchant opens first new concept high street showroom

Chandlers Building Supplies has launched a new concept with a high street timber and landscaping showroom in the heart of Windlesham town.

Uniquely located on the high street at Updown Hill, beside Sutton’s sandwich shop, it’s the first showroom of its type in the area. The showroom is open to the trade and public, with the retail team helping to raise funds for Teenage Cancer Trust via donations to advertise on its popular ‘Tradesperson Noticeboard’.

Employing two product advisers, the showroom is wholly dedicated to timber and landscaping products and is completely separate from Chandlers’ builders merchant branch located three miles away on Lucas Green Road, Woking.   The 40 sq. meters of retail space, showcasing vast ranges of cladding, decking, screening battens, porcelain paving, wooden flooring, doors and sleepers as well as decorative aggregates and more, opened its doors at the beginning of the month.

Stuart MacDonald of Chandlers Building Supplies, said: “Since opening the showroom in the town we’ve attracted a lot of attention from tradespeople and their customers. We’ve also seen an influx of the general public who are keen to see products close up, get knowledgeable advice on their projects, and prefer a retail showroom environment than a big builders’ merchants setting – so on many respects we are filling a gap in the market.”

The showroom is open Monday – Friday, 8am – 12.30pm.

Chandlers Building Supplies along with Parker Building Supplies and Fairalls Builder Merchants have been raising funds for Teenage Cancer Trust for many years. Collectively they have raised over £300,000 to date for the charity.
