What Addeco does
Addeco is a privately held, family-run building and landscaping materials business based in Stoke-on-Trent, England. The company manufactures and distributes a broad range of outdoor construction and landscaping products — closeboard/featheredge fence panels and concrete fencing (some manufactured on-site to custom sizes), block paving from leading brands (Bradstone, Tobermore, Kilsaran), aggregates, Indian stone and vitrified porcelain paving, composite decking, artificial grass, garden sheds, and cast stone caps and coping. Its core technology is the combination of on-site fencing manufacturing, third-party-brand distribution of landscaping products, and a regional logistics capability supporting local delivery within 1-3 days across Staffordshire and Cheshire. The company serves a hybrid customer base of trade professionals (landscapers, builders, garden designers) using the materials on commercial and residential projects, and individual DIY consumers undertaking home improvements; transactions are dominated by word-of-mouth recommendations, supported by a physical yard at Sneyd Hill, Burslem, and an e-commerce shop at addecoltd.co.uk.
Addeco's business model is straightforward goods retail and light manufacturing. Pricing is unit-based and transparent, published on the website: block paving £16.80-£38.70 per unit, fence panels £22.00-£73.00, artificial grass rolls from £58.00, porcelain paving £11.88-£496.80 per item/pack, with both collection and delivery options. The go-to-market is sales-led: a physical retail/collection point, a 1-3 day regional delivery service, and an online shop, with customer testimonials and Yell.com/Google/Facebook presence generating top-of-funnel discovery. Revenue mechanics are one-time transactional sales of physical goods at competitive prices, with no subscription, licensing, or recurring component visible in the data.
The company is registered as Addeco Ltd in England and Wales (company number 06933965), operates with 251-500 employees per the firmographics input, has no parent company or external investors disclosed, and maintains active trading relationships with three major paving manufacturers (Bradstone, Tobermore, Kilsaran) plus a mutual operational relationship with Valleystone. There is no disclosed revenue, no funding history, no API/SDK surface, and no AI/ML capability in evidence.

Addeco competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Selco Builders Warehouse: Trade-only builders' merchant with branches across the UK. Comparable to Addeco's trade professional segment in product range and value positioning, though Selco excludes retail DIY consumers.
- Buildbase: UK builders' merchant with regional branches supplying timber, landscaping, and building materials. Closely comparable to Addeco in product mix and trade/consumer customer split, with similar branch-level operations and local delivery.
- Huws Gray: UK regional builders' merchant group with branches concentrated in the Midlands, North West and Wales — significant geographic overlap with Addeco's Staffordshire and Cheshire catchment. Highly comparable in product range, trade/consumer mix, and regional branch-and-delivery model.
Broad incumbents
- Jewson: Major UK builders' merchant with hundreds of branches and a strong trade B2B focus. Comparable to Addeco in core product categories (timber, fencing, landscaping materials) but serves a national customer base through a much larger branch network.
- Travis Perkins: UK's largest builders' merchant operating 1,000+ branches across the country. Directly comparable to Addeco in product range (lumber, fencing, paving, aggregates) but operates at national scale with much larger procurement and a broader B2B trade customer base.
- Wickes: UK home improvement retailer serving both DIY consumers and trade customers. Overlaps with Addeco in fencing, paving, decking, and garden products, with national store coverage and a strong e-commerce platform that competes for the same consumer and small trade buyer.
- Marshalls plc: UK-listed manufacturer and supplier of landscaping and building products including paving, block paving, and aggregate. Compares to Addeco as a much larger, national-scale operator in overlapping product categories with both merchant and direct channels.
Others
- Tobermore: Leading UK and Irish manufacturer of block paving and hard landscaping products, currently a core Addeco supplier. Compares to Addeco in the sense that it represents the upstream manufacturing economics of the products Addeco resells and partly manufactures equivalents of.
- Bradstone: Major UK manufacturer of paving and landscaping products and an existing core supplier to Addeco. Adjacent (supplier-side) relationship rather than a direct competitor, but a useful comparable for product category economics.
Regional players
- B&M Fencing Supplies: UK regional fencing and landscaping supplies merchant. Comparable to Addeco in product focus (fence panels, posts, gravel boards, landscaping materials) and trade/consumer mix, with comparable regional delivery and yard-based operations.
