Introducing the Trade Card and Trade Account

Self Build Trade Cards/Accounts are available from many building supply companies such as Screwfix, Travis Perkins etc... and they are your key to lower cost building materials and supplies,available at a range of outlets nationwide!

Trade cards and accounts are ideal for self builders and renovators like you, to source building materials, plant and tool hire, roofing, insulation, white goods, flooring – absolutely everything you’ll need to complete your new home. These can also be used for building extensions, alterations and general renovation around the home. You do not have to be embarking on a huge project.

Trade Account and Card Key Features:

  • All your building materials and supplies with one card.
  • Valid for a massive choice of general building materials and specialist supplies.
  • Save £££'s and cut the cost of your build and in some cases earn reward points
  • Expert advice and support right through your project.
  • Can be used by the self builder, renovator or an appointed contractor.
  • Additional Benefits

    By creating a trade account or applying for a trade card, this can bring many other benefits. In some cases, some companies will match online prices to in-store prices, give special offer deals and a whole host of other great benefits.

    How Much Can I Save?
    The typical savings that a self builder will make on the materials purchased through Trade Accounts and Cards will vary depending on the mix of products purchased.
    In many cases Trade Card and Account holders deserve a high level of dedicated and specialist service and many companies will recognise this. With this in mind you can expect to receive advice on choosing and ordering your materials and goods from dedicated staff . Again, this can very much depend on the company and their own individual policies
