A heating and plumbing ecommerce website is proving a massive hit with homeowners – registering more than 1.4million visitors last year.
www.plumbnation.co.uk sells tens of thousands of products directly to consumers including bathrooms, boilers, radiators, heaters, showers, air conditioning and renewable energy.
Among its current best selling products are Worcester and Vaillant boilers, Ideal Standard and Roca bathroom fittings and Stelrad and Myson radiators.
www.plumbnation.co.uk offers its customers the PlumbNation Price Promise which means it won’t be beaten on price, online customer guides, product video demonstrations and a sophisticated online heating calculator which allows you to match the most appropriate products to your home’s needs.
Unlike many other ecommerce businesses, www.plumbnation.co.uk also has a team of skilled technical staff on hand six days a week to answer any product or order enquiries.
Last year, the company registered more than 1.4million visitors to its site – compared to 772,000 the previous year.

•   PlumbNation is the brainchild of Managing Director Royden Evans, who left school at 16 with no qualifications but itching to work in the plumbing and heating industry after spending weekends and holidays working for his stepfather, who was a plumber.
•   After a successful career handling key accounts for the likes of Travis Perkins’ owned City Plumbing, Royden identified an opportunity to create a powerful ecommerce site selling plumbing and heating products direct to domestic customers across the UK.
•   The company was launched in 2007 and this year is on course to achieve a turnover of £11million, compared to last year’s £8million. The business is headquartered in Wirral, Merseyside, and employs 11 staff.
