About John George

John George is a family run business that has been trading since 1725.  We provide nails, woodscrews, bolts & nuts, fixings & fastenings, fencing, sealants, ironmongery and building products to trade customers such as builders merchants, fencing suppliers, roofing merchants and DIY outlets.

Over the years we have developed a number of brands to meet the needs of a technologically advancing building and DIY trade. These include Super Drive, Exocet, Fence-Pro, Gate-Pro, Timberfast, Universal+ and Impact.

Our customers benefit from a fast, efficient nationwide service delivered from our own depots, on our own vehicles. This gives us the flexibility to meet the requirements of our customers, large and small.

We are a close knit team who are all passionate about John George, our products and the value we bring to our customers.
