In 2019 our Bordon branch won the Hard Landscaping Display award at the Builders' Merchants Awards for Excellence, presented by Dame Kelly Holmes DBE at the London Hilton Park Lane. Following the expansion of our Bordon branch, our outdoor landscaping displays were created, containing 15 individual gardens, showcasing a variety of products including paving, block paving, walling, composite decking, fencing, artificial grass, decorative stone, arches and sleepers - all complimented by professional planting. Imagery of these displays even featured in Pavestone's brochure! We’re thrilled that our efforts were rewarded by winning this national award at the Builders’ Merchants Awards for Excellence - the equivalent of the Oscars for the merchanting industry - and that once again the same displays were shortlisted for the BMJ Industry Awards and the Builders' Merchants Awards for Excellence in 2021!
