Whether you’re managing a single property or coordinating works across hundreds of homes, our aim is simple: make procurement easier so you can spend more time completing profitable work.

A One-Stop Supplier for Maintenance and Refurbishment Projects

 

Modern refurbishment projects rarely involve just one trade.

 

A bathroom refurbishment may require plumbing supplies, flooring, decorating products, ironmongery, timber, fixings and cleaning products. A kitchen replacement often combines cabinetry, doors, plumbing, flooring, tools and decorating materials.

 

Rather than visiting multiple suppliers, Orion Trade Supplies allows contractors to source everything from one place, helping to reduce administration, minimise supplier visits and keep projects moving efficiently.

 

Our product range includes:

 

This joined-up approach helps simplify purchasing while reducing the risk of project delays caused by missing materials.

Supporting Housing Associations and Planned Maintenance Contractors

 

Many of our customers deliver responsive repairs, planned maintenance programmes and void refurbishments for housing associations, local authorities and facilities management companies.

 

These projects demand products that are dependable, readily available and suitable for high-use residential environments.

 

We’ve developed our product range with those requirements in mind, helping contractors complete projects efficiently while balancing durability, performance and value. Whether you’re replacing kitchens and bathrooms, repairing communal areas or carrying out cyclical decoration programmes, Orion Trade Supplies provides practical solutions designed for professional use.

Reliable Stock Helps Keep Projects Moving

 

One of the biggest causes of lost productivity on site is waiting for materials.

 

That’s why maintaining strong stock availability across our core trade ranges is central to the way we operate. Our customers rely on us for everyday essentials as well as specialist products, helping reduce repeat supplier visits, minimise downtime and keep projects progressing to schedule.

 

Combined with flexible delivery options and Click & Collect services from our Peckham and Rochester branches, we make it easier to get the products you need, when you need them.

Improve first time fix rates by ensuring the correct and most appropriate materials are sourced, by consulting with expert suppliers like Orion Trade Supplies in Rochester, Kent.

 

Practical Advice from an Experienced Team

 

Choosing the correct product can save significant time and money on site.

 

Whether you’re selecting flooring adhesives, timber sheet materials, plumbing consumables, decorating products or specialist fixings, our experienced team can help you identify products that are suitable for your project. That practical support helps contractors avoid compatibility issues, reduce rework and achieve better long-term results.

 

The Orion Trade Supplies teams at our Rochester, Kent, and Peckham, London, branches are experts in the products we stock and the markets we service – and are always very happy to provide any advice that they can to support you to make the best purchasing decision for yopur project.
