Hi Leigh,
Many thanks for taking the time to feedback. I have checked the order history, and it looks like the product you ordered is our Rainbow Clearance Emerald Green. The tubes listed in Rainbow Clearance are expired stock and are discounted as a result. This expired stock is often usable, our handy guide is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqfy7oEYxVQ
We don’t have an expected restocking date for this shade, so I’m afraid we only have clearance stock available at the moment. I apologise for any inconvenience caused. We do offer a Money Back Guarantee on our clearance tubes. If you experience any problems, please let us know.
Kind regards
AB Building Products
Out of stock items
I placed my first order and it was refunded with no reason as to why. Then I ordered another similar product and again this was refunded and again no reason why. Ended up having to ring them to be told the items weren’t in stock, despite being displayed on the website.

Hi Miriam,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, we’re really sorry for the frustration and confusion caused by your recent orders.
We completely understand how disappointing it is to place an order, only to have it refunded without explanation. That’s not the experience we aim to deliver, and we’re currently working behind the scenes to improve how our website handles stock visibility to prevent this from happening again.
In the meantime, if there's anything we can do to help you place a future order or suggest an in-stock alternative, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Our team is here to help, and we'd love the opportunity to make things right.
Really good company
Really good company. Ordered an item online. They let me know when it had been placed, packed, picked up by DHL. Very well packed. Will use again for next lot of diy.

Very good after sales service
Very good after sales service. I ordered some silicon sealant which arrived very quickly. Unfortunately I chose the wrong colour. After contacting the supplier I sent the goods back and received a full refund.

Absolutely perfect
Absolutely perfect, customer services so helpful. Staff very knowledgeable, gave me great advice. I purchased Rainbow Steel blue sealant to match with my navy splashbacks and it was a perfect match. Ordered on Thursday at 3pm delivered on Friday at 4pm excellent service. Splashbacks sealed on Saturday!! Can’t get much better than that. Highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again. Keep up the good work 😊
