Jewson is potentially the best-known builders merchant in the UK. The company started trading as long ago as 1836. Initially, George Jewson bought a business to trade goods in East Anglia but his son suggested they expand into Norwich. In fact, the entire family moved to Norwich and started the merchant business. Initially, they specialized in timber, coal, and building materials. The business has steadily grown over the years and is now part of the French conglomerate Saint-Gobain. It was purchased in 2000.
Builders merchants don’t generally have traditional catalogs as you go into the merchants to get the items you need. It’s usually a case of needing the item that day. However, Jewson currently has a huge range of stock as they cover a wide range of materials and tools. To facilitate finding what you’re looking for they still produce a traditional paper-based catalog. It’s produced annually and is nearly 300 pages long. You can request a copy in-store or on the website. It’s even possible to download the catalog to view at home on your laptop. The range of material offered by Jewson is impressive. If you’re looking for building materials, windows, doors, tools, electrics, plumbing, or even landscaping, you’re going to find it in the catalog. It is worth noting that Jewson regularly offers promotional items but they don’t produce a separate catalog to cover these items. You’ll find the offers online or in-store. Finally, Jewson does offer help catalogs. These are full of tips to help you finish specific jobs, they are useful for experts and novices.
There are approximately 600 Jewson stores across the UK. The company has worked hard to ensure there is one in most towns and you’re certain to find one close to your home.

The staff will point you in the right direction for specific tools and materials or guide you through the ordering process. Of course, you can simply browse the products in-store.
