PGR Builders & Timber Merchants

About PGR Builders & Timber Merchants

PGR Timber was founded in 1984 as a family business operating out of a single unit in Laindon, Essex. Initially focused on cutting timber to order for the local community, we’ve since grown into a leading name in the building supplies industry across Essex and Surrey. Over the past 40 years, our expansion has been significant, yet we’ve remained true to the core values that have been with us from the beginning: providing personal service and maintaining a family-oriented approach to business.

Our journey from a small, local operation to a multi-site business has been fuelled by our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Today, PGR Timber operates from multiple locations across Essex and Surrey, offering a diverse range of building materials and services. Despite our growth, we’ve held on to the personal touch that has always set us apart, ensuring that every customer receives the care and attention they deserve.
