Not all ironmongery is the same - ours is great quality and prices start at just 2p!

We have a huge range of ironmongery to choose from, and many items are sold loose.  That means you can buy just what you need and nothing is wasted (or lost in the dark corners of the shed next time you look for it).  Prices are very competitive and start from just 2p.  Where else can you buy just what you need for 2p!!  All our ironmongery is good quality.  Not all ironmongery is the same - in some places you can buy items that look the same, but just try using them!   They bend.  You need good quality fixings if your going to do a job properly!

Waterproofing paints and sealants.

Rain, rain and more rain! Weather like this is sure to show up any little leaks in conservatories and out buildings. We have lots of waterproofing paints, bitumen paints and sealants to choose from, and we're always happy to advise on the best way to tackle a problem. Pop in and see how we can help. The forecast is for sun soon (honest!).

Upcycling furniture with Rustoleum Furniture paint

When my daughter was younger she loved pink and glitter so we decorated her room to match. We created a chest of drawers out of an old set, all in pink and with heart shaped handles. She has long since grown out of the sparkley pink phase, so I've finally got round to updating her room. The last piece is to re-invent the chest of draws.

I'm using Rustoleum Furniture Paint to update the colour and adding new handles to give it a much more sophisticated look. We've gone for a fantastic duck egg blue. A small tin was big enough to cover the whole chest of drawers and cost £6.55. With the addition of 6 new handles at 75p each the whole thing cost just over a tenner - not bad for a designer chest of drawers!  Rustoleum Furniture Paint is available to order.
