ProDave Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 This may be of interest to some in the vicinity of Inverness / Ross-Shire. I had the heads up from a joiner I was working with yesterday that a new independant builders merchant has just started up in Alness. So I went there today. They have only been going about 2 weeks, so their stock is a bit basic but they are clearly building up the stock and were very happy to show me around. I ordered some chipboard and plywood from them, total cost was £271, Jewsons had previously quoted me £320. Hopefully this will give us some cheaper material for the rest of the build, and they are closer for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Davies Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Interesting. Name? Where are they? Doubt I'd use them a huge amount but might be a handy place to try before carrying on to Inverness for stuff which is a bit awkward in Caithness. A PM would be handy if you feel it's not appropriate to say it publicly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
