Inter-Line Building Supplies

Inter-Line Building Supplies, an independent builders' merchant in South Devon

Inter-Line Building Supplies presents itself as one of Devon's leading independent builders' merchants, supplying building materials to trade professionals, contractors, landscapers and DIY customers across South Devon. The company combines local branches with online ordering and trade account facilities, and describes its offer around competitive pricing, stock availability and local product knowledge.

The range is aimed at projects of very different scale: major construction work, home extensions, garden landscaping and routine maintenance. The catalogue is organised into broad departments that cover general building, timber, garden and landscaping, roofing, plumbing and drainage, hardware, tools and workwear, painting and decorating, and electrical and lighting products.

Building materials and structural products

Under general building, the merchant lists bead, mesh and builders' metalwork; bricks, blocks and concrete; cement and aggregates; chemicals and sealants; doors and frames; DPM and DPC; insulation, loft and PIR products; plastering and drylining; lintels and reinforcement; and painting and decorating supplies. The decorating section extends to tools and sundries, paint, fillers and woodcare, while a separate hardware department covers general hardware, door hardware and hardware accessories.

Timber is treated as a department of its own, with sawn timber and batten, planed timber and MDF, sheet material, mouldings and stair parts, flooring products and shelving. The catalogue also includes treated decking boards, sleepers and chipboard flooring panels among its listed lines.

Landscaping, paving and garden supplies

The garden and landscaping range covers decorative coverings, decking, fencing and gates, paving, garden tools, sleepers, walling, pest control and rain drainage. Paving products in the catalogue include textured slabs in several sizes and colours, Indian sandstone project packs and porcelain paving in various formats. The merchant also lists decorative aggregates and chippings, topsoil, compost, ornamental bark and a peat-free compost option.

Roofing, plumbing and drainage

Roofing products are grouped into roof tiles and slates, roofing timber, lead, fascia and cladding, roof windows, flat roofing, GRP profiles and chemicals, roofing miscellaneous items and dry fix systems. In plumbing, drainage and guttering, the departments include guttering, drainage, copper pipe and fittings, plastic pipe and fittings, soil and waste, taps, sanitary ware and plumbing consumables. Screws, nails and fixings are organised separately into fasteners, nails, and nuts, bolts and washers.
