The branch can be found at Cambridge Road in Old Harlow.  The three-acre site is the largest new branch that Buildbase has opened to date.  The existing warehouses on the site have been demolished and a superb new purpose-designed builders merchant now occupies the site.

Harlow Buildbase is easy to reach on the outskirts of town with plenty of parking. The large trade stores area includes ironmongery, plumbing and heating, decorating, workwear and tools and everything else you would expect from a full service builders merchant. In the warehouse and yard area there are huge stocks of timber, bricks, aggregates and rainwater goods.

On a mezzanine floor the kitchen and bathroom showroom has over twenty five fully-tiled displays with the very latest designs. There is a dedicated Hirebase on site with equipment for hire ranging from hand tools to 3T diggers and dumpers.  Outside a large hardlandscaping area shows many designs of paving and walling.

Manager Tony Archer, who has 27 years of industry experience, said:
"Buildbase is delighted to be opening a new branch in Harlow and we are looking forward to welcoming customers to this impressive site. We offer a superior service all-round for our customers to show why Buildbase has been named best national builder's merchant. We're a traditional, friendly builders' merchant and we aim to offer a personal service at a local level, responding to the needs of our customers, whether they're in the trade or enthusiastic home improvers. We have wanted to bring Buildbase to Harlow for a while and have found the perfect site. We chose Harlow because it is a growing town with a strong local economy and lots of building and refurbishment work."
