While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Written by the company

Buttle plc is an independent Timber and Builders’ Merchant with branches in St Albans and Leighton Buzzard. Our roots are in timber (we’ve been selling it since 1919) but today we also sell building materials. We're also a plumbers merchant with specialised teams in most of our branches. Our Head Office is in St Albans, we employ around 45 people and our sales turnover is approaching £8m. We are Investors in People, and several of our employees have worked with us for over 20 years. Our customers include national house builders, local developers, general contractors, public sector organisations and home improvers - in fact, all users of building materials, however large or small. We are long-standing members of the Builders’ Merchants’ Federation and we comply with the BMF Merchant Member Charter. As members of the respected NMBS and H&B buying groups, we are able to purchase materials from the UK’s leading manufacturers at competitive prices. We are skilled at sourcing special items for our customers and always aim to provide the right materials at the right time at the right price. We have a fleet of 10 crane-offloading vehicles, including the latest DAF trucks with remote-controlled cranes. Our normal delivery area includes London, Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Essex, but we can also arrange deliveries direct from the manufacturer to sites throughout the UK.

Arron/Aaron from Kentish Town gave incredible service over the phone yesterday and followed up at 7am making our delivery happen. His energy was infectious along with humour while all the time making me feel like my order was important and not just another order or just another customer. Call Buttles Kentish Town.
