December Newsletter 2009

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

Welcome to our December newsletter !

I think the old saying of ‘it gets quicker as you get older’ seems ever more prevalent this year – it really can’t be the end of the year already – can it ?

It seems the news reports are very slightly more positive regarding the housing market; I’ve always said that ‘our market’ being us supplying and you the small builder should really benefit from the current situation with people generally staying put and improving their existing property with extensions, loft conversions etc.  We have however noticed a decline in single or small multiple plot developments.

Remember, if your stuck for ideas on Xmas Pressies, our CHRISTMAS CRACKER promotion runs until the end of December.  Click here to buy online now !

What we’ve done in 2009 !

After many months of work we launched our new website in January.  We’re currently working on software to add 1000s of more products to the online shop.  Although currently this is aimed at the retail market our next phase will be to link specific customer terms to the shop; in the meantime you’ll be able to get a guide on prices from the comfort of your own home !

We’ve also spent loads of time this year on developing our services to you…

Hire Department

Kev Lucas joined us in back in May and has really taken hold of the Hire services we offer.  Kev has some 30 years experience ion the hire sector and many of you will know him previously from Mitchells.  We’ve added many new machines and plant to our fleet, so remember for any hire requirement, please give him a call on 01305 812016 or direct on 07976 577537.

The Yard

Phil and the lads in the yard have spent endless hours this year on rearranging the yard spaces.  Buildrites’ premises now cover approximately 2 acres so that’s a huge amount of stock to sort !  Although there’s still lots to do, hopefully you’ve been finding us easier to use than ever before !

The Showroom

Kate has been organising a refit of a large part of our ‘Solutons’ Kitchen, Bathroom and Bedroom showroom which we hope to start this month.  If your looking for a bargain, now might be the time to grab one !  We’re clearing out lots of items (many still current) to make way for new and innovative products.

Kate has also added loads of new tile ranges and we’re currently making way for new flooring ranges from vinyls to carpets, laminates to stone !

Remember if you’re looking we can offer a full design service with CAD drawings & installations (if required).  Contact Kate direct in the showroom on 01305 813686.

NEW PRODUCTS…NEW PRODUCTS….

Although we noted this in last months newsletter, we’ve also been working on new products for 2009 & 2010.  Some reintroduced / added ranges include…

  • CAR CARE RANGE…Dashboard wipes, tyre foam etc etc
  • NEW DOOR RANGE…Great new range of doors now on display from XL Joinery -  www.xljoinery.co.uk
  • NEW HARDWARE RANGE…Great new range of hardware from Carlisle Brass -  www.carlisledesigngroup.com
  • NEW DECORATING RANGES…We’ve expanded our range of decorating products…take a look in store
  • NEW ELECTRICAL RANGE….We’ve added loads of new stock lines including cut cable, lamps and accessories
  • CLOTHING…Loads of additional lines from Snickershttp://www.snickers-workwear.com/Snickers/ & safety footwear from Vtech

VAT

All invoices raised from 1/1/10 will attract the old/new rate of 17.5% !

Finally, I’d like to thank everyone for your support again this year.  We’re proud to be independent and being part of the h&b buying group  www.handbgroup.com means our pricing is as competitive as the nationals.

From all our us @ Buildrite we wish you a very Happy Xmas and a prosperous 2010.
