Wood Stores

If you have a wood stove or open fire then keeping your wood dry is essential as dry wood burns more efficiently and gives off more heat. Whether you buy your logs pre-dried or season them yourself, a wood store is an ideal place to store them ready for lovely warm winter fires.


At Anglian Garden and Building Supplies we offer a range of wood stores and other useful stores for tools, bikes and more. Click here to view what we have available now.

Sales of Artificial Grass Soar

As Britain has just had the second-lowest level of rainfall between January and June since 1914, sales of artificial grass have soared by one third.  The warm, dry weather, together with hosepipe bans in north-west England, have prompted a rush for fake turf as gardeners repair damaged grass.

If you don't want to spend your weekends mowing the lawn and then disposing of the grass cuttings, an artificial lawn could be the solution you were looking for.

Artificial grass is popular for families with young children as it offers a suitable play surface without the hassle of a traditional lawn.

Before

After

Nowadays, artificial grass is a viable and cost-effective alternative to managing a traditional lawn and you would be hard-pushed to tell the difference in appearance, other than the artificial lawn maintains a healthy look all year round, it does not suffer the effects of drought and flooding, weed growth or any growth come to that!  In today's modern society where leisure time is short, time is too precious to spend hours maintaining the garden, so why not follow in the footsteps of trendy city-dwellers and get the effortless green of your dreams!



Visit our website for full details of the range of products that we have available together with the appropriate adhesives and jointing tapes.

New Hillhout Range coming soon to Garden and Building

Coming soon to Garden and Building is an exciting new range called Hillhout.  Products range from Gazebos and Pergolas to Sheds and Log cabings.  Whatever you are looking for checkout HillHout first.



In 1970 the founder and original owner Danny van de Berg started a one-man business by importing and selling wooden fencing from premises of approximately 200 M2.


As the result of continued innovating Hillhout - Bergenco has grown into a serious producer and commercial trading company with an extensive range of wooden garden products. Hillhout is internationally well known for the good quality and extensive customer service. The products are sold to the market under the trade-mark Hillhout. Hillhout is a real trend-setter in the Netherlands and in many other European countries. The head office is in Zwolle with industrial premises at this time being approximately 100.000 M2 with more than 200 people throughout Europe working daily for your ”Garden pleasure”

In the Netherlands and Belgium, Hillhout-Bergenco is working together with retail outlets (see elsewhere on the site). Abroad there are daughter companies in England, Germany and France. In other countries Bergenco works on an exclusive basis with importers who are taking care for the distribution to retail outlets.

In 2004 Hillhout was taken over by Deli Universal, a ‘big’ player in the timber industry, so together we must take on the challenge to strengthen the position in the Netherlands and produce growth in other European countries.

 Hillhout will last longer, much longer.


Is there a difference between wood that you can by anywhere and Hillhout wood? Most certainly, yes.

First of all the the wood for Hillhout is carefully selected. For instance, wood from Central Europe is perfect for fencing and pergolas, whereas the wood for log cabins and garden buildings, for example, comes from Scandinavia. Hillhout only processes wood that comes from areas where forest management is aiming at sustainability.

Untreated wood has to be protected against a bleak climate. Therefore our wood is preserved under high pressure, according to present regulations. Fungi and rot will not stand a chance for a long period of time because of this method. Impregnated wood does not need to be painted. In the course of time, the wood will become grey, but this does not affect the quality.

Only products that meet our strict quality requirements are allowed to leave our factory. For this purpose, we have a strict quality inspection in each production phase. Inspection of sizes, construction, checking for damages, and inspecting the correct packaging and the way it's transported.

Only when the wood has withstood all tests, can it carry the name Hillhout. With the Hillhout label you will know to have bought a good product.

Some products of the Hillhout range receive the designation 'Excellent'. They are even more beautiful as to design and quality and naturally, just as reliable as all other products from Hillhout. You can recognize the Excellent collection by this sign.


Hillhout gives a 10-year anti-rot guarantee on all wooden Hillhout products that are pressure impregnated.

Should a product nevertheless get damaged by rot within the guarantee period, it will be replaced free of charge.

Thinking of new gardens..........

Well after a week of snow it is now disappearing.  Looking round the garden in winter it has a quiet enchanting effect.  Although some of the snow is gone ice crystals still hang on trees and bushes.  The sun is now going down and the red sky looks beautiful against the trees and my hallmark timber greenhouse.
The house extension is nearly complete and then it will be time to start on landscaping the garden.  I have had several new ideas for the garden which may involve moving my water feature and summer house.  
I am also thinking about installing vegetable planters and composters.  I would also like some pastel coloured paving to create a calming lounge area in the garden.

New Year New Garden

Its now 2010 and for those of us who have had time off it is now back to work.  This year we can think about new beginnings and most of all new gardens.  I am sure many of us look around our gardens and think about what we would like to change to make it better.
This year could be the year to add more colour to your garden with exotic plants or to add a water feature.  Maybe you were even thinking about garden lighting to highlight your driveway or decking areas.

Happy New Year

Anglian Garden and Buildings would like to say Happy New Year for 2010.  This year can be a new start, whether you want to create a new garden or have a garden makeover for what you already have.  2010 can be the year to make it happen.
I have spent today in my garden thinking of the changes I am going to make for the future.  The garden looked to pretty this morning.  There had been a slight sprinkling of snow that made my heather slate glisten and my scottish cobbles sparkle.  Frost does amazing things to your garden. My Parana Falls Water feature had ice crystals where the water had been.  The whole garden felt like I was in Narnia.
