Sourcing & suppliers of Architectural materials and floors Our Heritage Since our founding more than 20 years ago, Drummonds has specialised in the sourcing and supply of antique building materials. We are a great proponent of responsible recycling and salvage, and offer an unrivalled depth and breadth of knowledge coupled with a dedication to restoring beauty to antique things. Specialist sourcing When it comes to sourcing materials, we draw from our own in-house resources as well as a well-established network of trade contacts. Through our years of working in the industry we know where to find the best and finest materials, knowledge we are delighted to share with our customers. We also supply some materials ourselves: in addition to some one-off items we maintain large stocks, for example, of top quality interior and exterior stone floors. A partner on your project team From 2009 we are delighted to offer our customers a bespoke consultancy service for sourcing reclaimed building materials. We will happily work with other members of your project team. Our seasoned consultants can bring their expertise to your project, whether it be by sourcing unusual materials, or helping to obtain the best price for you. Restoration, bathrooms and more Evolving from our background in the restoration of original period bathroom suites, some years ago we moved into design and manufacture. We are proud to present our range of classic bathrooms, door furniture and specialist reclaimed flooring. All of our products are handmade by our team of craftsmen, using traditional techniques rarely found in manufacture today. Please note: because of the limitations of the printing and photography processes, colours in this catalogue cannot be taken as exact. Before ordering we strongly advise that you visit one of our showrooms to view our flooring products. All wood and stone floors are supplied without any finish. INTRODUCTION 3
