Need the ingredients for improvements? We’ve got just the place in Perth.
Since 2009 Joinery And Construction Supplies (JACS) has been supplying local and national tradesmen with the quality products they a need at a price that’s right to get the job done.
Situated in Arran Road Industrial Estate, JACS has become the trades’ first stop when it comes to door furniture, shower panels, sliding doors, hand and power tools, silicones, all types of ironmongery and much more.
MD Andy Mackie explained how it all started; “Through necessity to be honest, After the builders merchant I was managing in Perth closed its doors I was looking forward to the wonderful task of job hunting during the height of the recession.
“The worst thing was I wasn’t ready to give up on the trade here in Perth, things were going well during the previous two years and I was just starting to make real headway. It was one of those ‘Go for it’ moments and I just took the leap and opened myself.” Maybe you are keen to give your home new look that won’t cost the earth. New door furniture is a quick and easy way to give any room in your home a real lift.
With more than 30 different styles in six different finishes to choose from off the shelf and many more available next day, JACS is sure to have something to suit every taste, ranging from traditional styles to the latest contemporary designs.
Store manager Glen Shand said: “Times have changed and things have definitely moved on. No longer do we have manufacturers all flogging the same old six or seven styles of door handles.
“Exciting new designers have brought a wealth of creativity and innovation to this niche of the interior design market. It really is quite exhilarating!”
Bathrooms can also be redesigned just a easily. The team at Grant Westfield and Selkie have been busy putting together stylish new ranges of shower panelling. Available in three sizes you’ll find shower panels are the low maintenance, hassle free replacement to traditional ceramic tiles.
With literally hundreds of colours and designs to choose from JACS are confident they will be able to offer ‘the one’ for you, refreshing your bathroom and making that long soak all the more enjoyable.
With prices starting at as low as £48 per panel it’s another great cost effective way of making a remarkable difference to the look and feel of your home.
Quality products, friendly efficient service and competitive pricing make JACS the place to visit.
Glen explained; “Being able to tailor our ranges to the actual needs of the local tradesmen is such a strong tool.
Having worked in national merchants we were always told by head office what we could and couldn’t stock but that didn’t always suit the local market.”
The ethos at JACS is simple, “If we don’t have what you’re looking for we will do our very best to get it for you”.
And with over 45 years’ experience the friendly, knowledgeable staff will always aim to provide even the most unsure of DIYers with helpful advice in plain and simple terms to make your JACS experience an enjoyable one.
