Recognise us… not a lot has changed! We have been here since 1985 after moving from Gladstone Road where we first opened in 1973. That’s over 50 years of independently serving our community. It’s over 50 year of the same family business proudly being part of the community. Not much changes as we move down the generations. We would like to think we bring some colour and traditional customer service (people not machines) in an industry, retail, which seems to be constantly challenged. Thank you to all our customers for being there, to keep us here

we appreciate you all

we hope you think we’re Handy
