C & A were established in 1968 by the founding couple Charles and Audrey. Back then plastics were a relatively very new product for the construction industry but they had the vision that these were going to be important building blocks for the future. Coming from a carpentry background, it only made sense that these skills should be used in conjunction with these new emerging products, and the focus was on canopies and carports.
These canopies were made to measure and sold as either self-assembly kit or with a complete install service. With their success they became one the largest distributers of PVC corrugated sheets in the UK! But they still did not rest on their Loral's as a new kid was in town "Multiwall Polycarbonate".
Over the years C & A have become one of the largest independent UK stock holders of this product range, and have continued to stay at the leading edge of this product range. C & A are often consulted by the manufacturers as products feasibility in the UK market before it goes into full production; it is not uncommon for C & A to take initial production runs to help launch new product lines to the UK.

Services
C & A Building Plastics have been specialists in supplying roofing sheets for over 45 years. We currently offer a wide range of roofing sheet options and specialise in the supply of plastic roofing sheets. We split these primarily into two groups, corrugated roofing sheet (wavy profile), and multiwall structured polycarbonate roofing sheet.
Corrugated roofing sheets are the original roofing sheet for spanning across roof purlins. The corrugation on what would be a flat sheet otherwise gives the sheet rigidity along its length, stopping it from sagging between the support. Many different materials can be corrugated (made wavy) to turn them into corrugated roofing sheets and you will find a wide range of options available.
Clear PVC plastic corrugated sheets in 3 cement profile is stocked in a choice of two grades. The 5 star economy grade that is 0.8mm thick and found in B&Q, Wickes and other DIY chains; and the 10 star professionals grade that is 1.3mm thick which is our best seller out of the two. PVC Plastic corrugated roofing sheets are the first product C & A started to sell over 45 years ago.
Polycarbonate corrugated roof sheets are made from high grade polycarbonate resin to deliver outstanding durability and improved lifespans compared to other plastic corrugated sheets. Polycarbonate corrugated is 10 times stronger than standard PVC corrugated sheets, with a UV coating designed to withstand 99% of harmful UV rays.
These box profile PVC corrugated roof sheets, are a 70/18 Grecca Profile. They are 1.1mm thick and available in 5 finishes of of Green, Light Grey, Terracotta, translucent blue & glass clear. Each sheet provides a full 1 metre width of cover, resulting in fewer sheets needed to install your roof, these are a favorite of the timber carport builders.

Bought a lot of stuff from this place I didn’t need this tape so went to return it but I got told by one of the sales person that to return it there’s a admin fee of £10 plus 20% handing fee works out between £12-£13 even though the price of that tape is £16.36 what a joke this place is and the customer service is rubbish.
I would never use this place nor would ever recommend anyone. Admin fee to return something you don’t need is a joke from a building merchant.

Excellent service. Great prices. Pleasure to deal with.
Installed their Sanctuary Canopy which has pretty much given us another living space outside our house. We needed a custom solution which they helped work out for us by supplying us with the appropriate extra parts. We’re very happy with the final result!

Hands down the best service for plastics in the UK. Tried several over the past few years, the only place with consistent stock, deliver when they say it will be delivered and fantastic service. Don’t bother shopping around, you may get a quote a few quid cheaper, but you will be waiting months for your order.

The worst customer services from the gentleman with the beard will definitely won’t be recommending this place even though one of Kent leading builders merchants recommended.
No helpful at all, definitely needs customer service training, left a very bad experience not a good ambassador for C & A Plastics.

After researching for a polycarbonate roofing system i found C & A on line,
looked at their products and found the Peak roofing system.
I sent an email to them with some measurements and questions and in no time at all Ish had answered , there followed a few more emails with more
questions which again Ish was on the ball.
The order was placed and arrived in good time with their delivery driver who was brilliant.
Over the next few weeks my dad and i assembled the roof .
All well made and easy to use and looks good.
Everyone at C & A has been great from start to finish , a big thank you

Ordered 11am today had a phone call 30 minutes later offering a pickup time slot for this afternoon. On arrival directed to a parking bay and told to wait for attendant, attendant came took my name and slot time, told to wait in care and he would bring order out to the bench beside my car. Very impressed with the set up for social distancing at no time did anyone come within 2 metres of me or my vehicle. Very impressed, quality and pricing the best. Thank you C&A Building Products.
