Contractors, architects, builders and homeowners buying tiles, sanitaryware, paints, plywood, steel or hardware want to know whether you stock what they need, which brands you carry, and whether you can supply their quantity on time.

Product ranges and brands

• Categories: tiles, sanitaryware, faucets, plywood and laminates, paints, electricals, steel and cement, hardware and fittings
• Brands you're authorised to sell
• Photos of popular products and showroom displays
• Downloadable catalogues where brands provide them

For contractors and projects

• Bulk and project quote form (materials, quantities, site location, timeline)
• Credit and trade account information, if offered
• Past projects supplied (with permission)
• Delivery areas and vehicle capacity

For homeowners

• Showroom location, timings and parking
• Design and selection help, such as tile visualisation or consultations
• WhatsApp for sending photos and asking about availability

Fabricate and install windows, doors or glass work rather than supplying materials? See websites for glass, aluminium and uPVC fabricators.

Online catalogue or store?

For heavy, variable or project-based items, a catalogue with enquiries usually works best. Small hardware and accessories can sometimes be sold online; see WooCommerce development.

Trust

• Years in business and authorised dealer certificates
• Reviews from contractors and homeowners
• Clear delivery and returns terms

Local SEO

• Target "tiles showroom in {area}", "plywood dealer {city}" and "{brand} dealer near me"
• A complete Google Business Profile with showroom photos
