Delivery Details

Rowlinson and Forest Garden Ptoducts are noiw open again, new orders were online when we re-opended on Tuesday 2nd of January. These should be processed fairly quickly and stock will begin flowing.  Orders for compost bins and raised beds are always popular at this time of year

Rowlinson Garden Products are one of our "drop-ship" suppliers. Rowlinson deliver garden products from their Warehouse direct to customer's addresses throughout most of mainland UK.  They have been working through Autumn on 7 days lead time but they have now reached the point where this can no longer be guaranteed. Couriers are now experiencing their busiest time of  year and the situation is not helped by the ongoing dispute at Royal Mail and Parcelforce. 

Today, 6th December 2022, is thier last guaranteed day for Rowlinson delivery before Xmas.  There will be no deliveries between 22nd December and 4th January 2023 inclusive. Rowlinson Offices will be closed from midday on 21stDecember until 8.15am on 3rd January

Transport for Fibre Cement products

Our business has evolved over the last few years and we are enjoying increased demand for cladding products.  James Hardie supply a range of fibre cement cladding, aluminium trims and speciailist fittings including coloured paint and colour head stainless screws. We also get requests from all over the UK for Hardie's Geckgo Gauges, Circular Saw Blades and Guillotines.  Transport has traditionally been a challenge but we are finding more cost-effective ways of moving products around Mainland UK.

To make the most of the Hardie cladding products

Although we are based in Devon our flooring deliveries can be made to most Mainland UK addresses. Our Hauliers indicate a 2-5 working day lead time for flooring deliveries in most of England, Scotland and Wales. Offshire Islands such as the Isle-of-Wight; the Isle-of-Man and the Scottish Highlands & Islands generally take a few days more.

Deliveries are dependent on stock availability, but this is normally quite quickly determined.  Stock is normally

Namgrass Deliveries

 Our artificial grass is manufactured by Namgrass in Belgium. It is supplied cut off a 2 metre or 4 metre roll depending on customers requirement.

Some products that we sell are difficult to purchase elsewhere and give us a price advantage.  In the case of HardiePlank and other Hardie products we keep every current colour in stock, but other merchants such as Travis Perkins & Jewsons don’t. Therefore they have to order these specific products in from Hardies (distribution based in Eastleigh, Southampton) with both extra cost implications and longer lead times. Other specialised products that may be viable to send via  the Pallet network include bead & butt cladding, pitch pine flooring and Millboard deckboards.

 Delivery lead times

We try to keep all HardiePlank, trims and Hardie VL items in stock.  A typical web order will be between 40 and 200 boards, and we can deliver to most parts of Devon & Cornwall using our own transport. Depending on the total sale value, and delivery location, there may be an associated delivery charge. D
