Services
In 1885, a partnership sought to start the operation of a saw mill in Darlaston, Staffordshire. Trade began in 1886 and nine years later, Boys and Boden was officially founded by Henry Boys Boden and his cousin Frank Albert Boys. The main customers at the time were mines and railways. Both were in need of a steady flow of timber to either prop up mine shafts or expand lines around the country.
Trading Divisions of Boys & Boden Ltd: The Plumbline, Boden Roofing Supplies, Pear Stairs. Boys and Boden Ltd (with trading divisions The Plumbline, Boden Roofing Supplies & Pear Stairs) is a privately owned company that has been trading since 1895. We are renowned as a leading force in the building and plumbing trades, providing complete ranges of products and materials to the trade and to D.I.Y'ers.
Wood briquettes, available from all Boys & Boden branches, are manufactured using 100% recycled materials. An excellent source of fuel, wood briquettes offer an affordable and eco-friendly alternative to timber logs. Unlike logs, briquettes are a side product from manufacturing with wood, making the most of the timber offcuts and waste.
All Boys & Boden stores boast an extensive range of building supplies from the most trusted manufacturers and suppliers in the country. With over a century of experience supplying for the construction trade and DIY, Boys & Boden is a one-stop builders' merchant that can provide everything your next project needs at a great price.
Starting life as a saw mill, Boys & Boden has been dealing with timber, wood and cutting services since 1895. Today, Boys & Boden stocks an extensive selection of timbers and timber products in a range of grades for all construction jobs, whether they be structural or decorative.

Not particularly cheap. Yard staff very helpful. Counter staff need some maners and go on a course for politeness and customer relations

Alex at Broughton Boys & Boden was able to capture the vision of my desired kitchen , enhancing and tweaking it in such a way I wouldn’t have thought possible regarding the layout. The final result is , quite… simply, stunning. I’ve dreamed of a kitchen like this for years, and Alex made sure to meet me with the most competitive price. Trevor’s craftsmanship in installing the kitchen was intricate , meticulous and he is extremely clean and tidy in his job. The cupboards are perfect along with well chosen appliances and finishes (👌 Alex). So happy with the result

We have had the best experience with Boys & Boden Chester in particular Alex Buchanin in the kitchen department. He was so unbelievably helpful when we turned up with our extremely basic sketch of how we wanted… our dream kitchen. Alex clearly had a lot of work to do but made time to create an electronic version and went into so much detail about what we wanted and needed to measure. He’s helped and advised us throughout our journey and nothing was ever too much - all whilst he was redesigning their showroom! Thank you so much, can’t recommend him highly enough!

Have always found an extensive range of stock. I tend not to visit to often because I get distracted by all the bright shiny tools!!!. They have the best selection of building materials in the area and will always try to deliver as soon as possible.

After confirming my delivery for today and then phoning Shrewsbury branch at 2pm and 5pm making sure it was out for delivery, I was assured it was. Guess what? 8 pm and no delivery!! No phone call from yourselves, nothing. I’ve now had to cancel the builder I had booked for Saturday as I have no faith in you being able to provide the goods I’ve paid for. Obviously cash customers aren’t as important as your account holders!
