Thistle Timber & Building Supplies is one of the largest independent builders merchants in the central belt of Scotland

Thistle Timber and Building Supplies was established in 1998 at The Wisp, supplying the construction industry with sawn and dressed timber, aggregates, paving, roofing, flooring, bricks, monoblocks and other building materials. A second branch at The Gyle was opened in October 2006. Thistle Timber's Gyle branch includes a brilliant landscaping centre, which does an impressive job of conveying just what is possible with a bit of imagination, skill and the use of quality products.
