About Brewers
Paint, paper and more
Trade paints from leading brands share space with designer paint ranges, and the wallpaper selection runs to thousands of patterns and textures. Brushes, rollers, tools and preparation materials cover the groundwork. Fabrics, made-to-measure curtains and blinds extend the range into soft furnishings.
Colour matching and advice
Every store can mix colours to BS4800, RAL and NCS references. Staff can scan a sample of at least 4cm and find the nearest match among thousands of shades. A Problem Solver tool helps with specific issues, and a Project Specification Service is available for planned work. Hard-to-find items can be sourced through the supplier network.
