Hopefully one and all enjoyed a break over the festive period and are now ready to start off the new year full of enthusiasm.

We will be changing some supply lines early in 2010 in accordance with our buying group agreements (www.handbgroup.com) but nothing significant such as cement – we will update on these accordingly.  One final reminder that the VAT rate has reverted to 17.5% so all invoices raised will now be back “to normal”.

Invoices by Email

In an attempt to ‘go-green’ and as previously notified, we intend to send our invoices by email.  Some customers are already receiving them in this format; if you’ve not signed up and wish to, please let us know by emailing  accounts@buildriteltd.co.uk  and we’ll add you to the list.
