This month, we’re shining the spotlight on a local success story that’s quietly become a go-to supplier for tradespeople and homeowners alike - Building Plastics on Demand, part of the Alltype Specialist Roofing Supplies
Tucked just two minutes off the Central A2 Gravesend turnoff, this independent shop has grown from a standing start to a thriving hub of expert advice, quality stock, and unbeatable service.
Meet the People Who Know Their Stuff
The business was started by Adam Bick, Alan Knuckey, and Ian Ironmonger, who brought over 30 years of industry experience with him. What began with no customers and plenty of ambition has grown into a trusted name, supported by a tight-knit team of six. Together, the team has more than 100 years of experience, so there’s always someone who understands exactly what you need and why.
A Bit of Everything (and Then Some)
What sets Building Plastics on Demand apart is its impressive and unusually broad range. It’s a bit of a hybrid in the industry, stocking everything from roofing and roofline products to plumbing, drainage and outdoor living supplies. With over 60 branded manufacturers in-store and a vast variety of stock, it’s rare to walk in and not find what you're after.
And if you’re in a rush? Their same-day delivery service has got you covered.
The Space and the Service
Operating from a 10,000 sqft unit, there's plenty of room for the huge selection of products they keep on hand, meaning no long waits or excuses.
Why We Love Them
Reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do, the team at Building Plastics on Demand is exactly what local business is all about. They’re proof that with the right mix of expertise, hard work, and customer care, you don’t need a big brand name to make a big impact.
If you haven’t already, pop in and see what they’re all about; chances are you’ll leave with exactly what you came for (and a few things you didn’t realise you needed)!
They’re offering a discount code exclusively to our clients, so if you visit the store, just mention bpoD to secure your discount. The amount you save will depend on what you’re buying, but it’s a nice little perk worth taking advantage of.
