Covers Timber and Builders Merchants Burgess Hill
Imagine walking into a giant shed that smells like Christmas and future projects. That’s Covers. It’s packed with everything from timber beams to tiny screws that hold your life together. The staff don’t just sell stuff—they speak DIY. They’ll help you build a deck, fix a fence, or pretend you know what a “joist” is.
Here’s a quirky fact: the timber yard is huge. Like, “bring a map” huge. You’ll find cedar, oak, and pine all stacked like wooden soldiers. And yes, you can touch them. Go ahead; give a plank a little pat. It’s oddly satisfying.
The Secret Life of Builders’ Merchants
Builders’ merchants aren’t just for pros in hard hats. They’re for you, too. Covers in Burgess Hill sells everything—paint, pipes, plaster, and even fancy hinges you didn’t know you needed. One customer once bought a single nail. Just one. The staff didn’t even blink. They handed it over like it was a treasure.
Fun detail: the store has a section for exotic woods. Yes, exotic! Think Brazilian teak or African mahogany. It’s like a UN meeting for trees. You can pretend you’re building a pirate ship or a luxury yacht (in your back garden, naturally).
