Made easy work delivering at a difficult location.
Although our house is on a busy street with a steep slope the delivery of two large 500ltr bulk bags of wood chippings was no problem. The driver ensured the bags were placed as close as possible to where we wanted.

Phil at Laira is brilliant
I have used Bradfords Laira bridge a lot over the last 2-3 months in our home for 2 bathroom renovations.
Phil in Laira bridge plumbing has been exceptionally helpful, knowledgable and very patient with us throughout this whole period. All items were ordered, delivered in a timely manner and to the high standard expected.

I was really impressed with the customer service I received at the Bradleys warehouse today. upon parking I was greeted by a very helpful and polite chap called Morgan. I needed two sheets of plywood which by only inches wouldn't fit into my van. This is not usually a service they offer, however Morgan happily cut the wood for me. This was not an easy task with a hand saw, but I could tell he wanted to ensure to offer a good service. Being a female sometimes going into these types of business where you've no idea what you are asking for can be a little intimidating. I was instantly made to feel welcomed and in good hands. Thank you! Every business should have a Morgan!

Morgan in particular was outstanding and went above and beyond to help us. Nothing was to big of a task for Morgan and even though our request was 'abnormal' he excelled in making sure we left a happy customer. When we entered the store we were greeted and offered help and pointed exactly to where the product we needed was and was given clear pros and cons for all options in relation to what we needed the product for.
