Now a household name, it's on a huge growth journey to once again lead the market in every home improvement project seamlessly for both consumers and tradespeople, through its end-to-end digital marketplace.

Recent initiatives such as launching a new quoting and invoicing tool, demonstrate its ongoing efforts to continuously improve user experience and streamline and automate operations for both consumers and trades. The company has made sure it stands out against its competitors with its commitment to trust and quality, raising standards and its dedication to customer satisfaction.
