About Us...
Watson Building Centre has evolved over the last 27 years from being a small, family run, hire shop to the complete building products, tool repair and tool hire centre it is today with branches in Durham and Hetton.
Owned by father David and son Gordon, the business specialises in the supply of quality tools and building products.
We're builders by trade and as such are ideally placed to help you select the right tools and the right products for your job.
All of our staff are fully trained and have certificates from leading manufacturers to service and repair most makes of electrical, petrol power tools and garden machinery.
But it's not just about price, it's not just about brand, we're here to make sure the tools and materials you buy are not only right for your job but also fit within your budget.
We like to think we have a good team, with most of our staff having been with us for 20 years plus, and a good relationship with all of our customers, which has helped us to grow and expand, opening up our new store in Brandon, County Durham, at the turn of the year.
“We are always at hand to give friendly advice on the correct tool for the job and using it safely.”
