About Us

Henlow Building Supplies (HBS) began in 1978 as a small hardware and ironmongery shop on Henlow High Street. Founded by David Curson, with the help of his sister Jan Sapiano, the business soon welcomed David's brother-in-law, Paul Sapiano, to the team. Together, they built a reputation for excellent service and expert advice.

In 2004, HBS relocated to Biggleswade, expanding its operations and product range. This move coincided with the arrival of the second generation, David's sons Chris and Paul Curson, who continue to uphold the company's founding values. HBS prides itself on offering a unique customer experience, bridging the gap between large builders' merchants and DIY superstores.

"We provide extra services and niche products not found in mainstream stores," says Chris Curson. This commitment to going the extra mile is reflected in the comprehensive support offered to customers, from assisting with small repairs to providing materials for large-scale building projects.

HBS remains dedicated to its founding principles of personalised service, expert advice, and a wide selection of products. Contact us today by phone or WhatsApp for competitive prices on your next project.
