Great prices and a super quick delivery turnaround. Communication was perfect aswell. So much so I’ve ordered again.
They actually answered the phone, were polite, knowledgeable and the order was delivered in full and on time. Would fully recommend both on price and service. Thank you.
BTP very helpful in supplying a pallet of floor leveller. I needed it on the Saturday, but didn’t want it sitting on the driveway for several days. I called and they recommended ordering for Thursday to give a day’s grace in case of any delivery issues. In the event the pallet arrived on Thursday as requested. Reliable and good value
