Jewson: One of the UK’s Biggest Chains of Builders’ Merchants
As one of the largest UK chains of general builders’ merchants, Jewson caters to small and mid-sized building contractors as well as the public. With over 600 branches nationwide and a heritage dating back to the 1830s, it’s evident how successful this brand has become. They offer an extensive range of materials and products and also operate specialist tool hire and bathroom and kitchen centres.
When you visit a store, you can find items for hire, such as heavy-duty gardening equipment like lawnmowers, rotavators, and diggers, as well as lighter tools like spades, protective wear, and trowels. It’s the perfect place for any DIY projects at home or in the garden, and you can receive advice on planning your work using their available tools. Additionally, they sell building materials, including sand, soil, bricks, and decorative items like timbers and plants.
With over 600 branches across the UK, locations are conveniently situated near major towns and cities. Typically, stores are open from 7 AM to 5 PM Monday through Friday and Saturday mornings from 8 AM to noon to suit most contractors’ schedules. Jewson opening times on bank and public holidays may vary, with most branches closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year’s Day, Easter Monday, and Good Friday.

By October 2001, under the ownership of Saint-Gobain, it had become one of the UK’s top three builders and merchant companies, with annual sales exceeding £1 billion. Today, more than 600 branches operate, extending to the Scottish islands and Cornwall’s coasts.
