Now we have 18 stores across Scotland and the North of England. Our stores are open to all - whether you are a professional painter and decorator, or a DIY-enthusiast.  Our friendly and knowledgeable staff are here to answer any questions you may have about our products or give you advice relating to your projects - helping you get the job done right first time.
