ST ANDREWS Timber & Building Supplies have made the addition of a machine shop to their Livingston branch.
The 500m2 facility features a wall saw and a crosscut saw and four more machines, such as a pillar drill, planer, and spindle moulder, are planned for the future.
The extension is part of the firm’s strategic growth plans for its West Lothian base.
The base already hosts a large landscaping division and launched a collaboration with HSS Group for tool and equipment hire at the end of last year.
Kerrie Ferguson, operations manager, said: “We’re pleased to have this additional service now up and running in Livingston.
“Customers can send us a ‘cutting list’ with their material order, and we will do the rest. Whether that is door blanks, hardwoods or skirtings to be cut down, or shelving to be cut from sheet material, we can take care of it all, saving the customers time and money.
“This adds another significant string to Livingston’s bow.
“It is now a well-rounded branch and having this additional facility is another step towards us achieving our ambition of seeing St Andrews Timber & Building Supplies become established as a one-stop shop for the building trade and DIY enthusiasts alike.”
The service is open to both the trade and the public. Qualified technicians operate all appliances and cut and deliver materials to order.
