Malcolm Halton and Michael Baker of JT Dove
JT Dove, the North East’s independent building merchants, has unveiled a purpose built landscaping centre at their £1.6 million outlet in Newburn, Newcastle upon Tyne.
The landscaping centre, which boasts the biggest freestanding landscaping display in Newcastle, covers an area of 756 square feet and hosts a comprehensive selection of garden paving, block paving, walling and accessories.
The centre has opened as part of JT Dove’s business plans to diversify its landscaping collections across the region, by focusing on different suppliers in each JT Dove outlet. At Newburn, the Stone Market range is the focal point of the landscaping centre, and in fact, offers the biggest range of Stone Market products in the North East. As one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of garden landscaping products, Stone Market is particularly celebrated for its handmade reconstituted stone and natural stone. The new landscaping display at Newburn also stocks Arbordeck, Thomas Armstrong Block Paving and Bradstone.
Another welcome addition to the £25,000 landscaping centre at JT Dove, Newburn is the “paving generator”, a state of the art computer package. By inputting the square area of the space the customer wishes to landscape, the computer provides a detailed breakdown of the exact materials required as well as the quantities of the products needed.
With over 38 different block paving and paving flags available, including ethically sourced natural slate, sandstone imported from India, block economy paving, granite and man-made stone, the display hosts an extensive range of landscaping products. The products range in style from contemporary to traditional to Mediterranean, and for finishing touches to the garden, there are over 18 different kinds of aggregates on offer. The landscaping division is open to view 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and JT Dove is offering free delivery on all orders over £100.
Malcolm Halton, manager of JT Dove at Newburn, said of the new landscaping section,
“The landscaping division is so diverse that it will appeal to every customer; from landscapers working on large scale landscaping projects to homeowners looking to make a few changes in their gardens.”
“Our decking display will soon be complete and in the meantime, the staff at the Newburn depot have been extensively trained within all aspects of the landscaping industry so that they can offer our customers the expertise and customer care that they deserve and expect.”
