Timber & Reclamation Materials Stoke-on-Trent
Established in 1916, Baskervilles Reclamation has served Stoke-on-Trent and surrounding areas as a family-run business specialising in timber and reclamation services. Our operations began with salvaging materials from demolition projects, a tradition we continue today through our sister company Baskervilles Demolition. Over a century of experience informs our expertise in supplying treated timber, reclaimed materials, and architectural salvage. We maintain a 1.5-acre site stocked with new and recycled products including fencing materials, roofing tiles, bricks, and antique furnishings. Our commitment to sustainability drives our practice of repurposing demolition waste while providing cost-effective solutions for construction and landscaping projects.The business transitioned to Milburn Road in 1977 under Roy Chadwick's leadership, with current Managing Director Graham Chadwick continuing the family legacy since 2002. We balance traditional values with modern requirements, offering both standard building supplies and unique reclaimed items. Our team's multi-generational knowledge ensures customers receive expert guidance for residential and commercial projects. This heritage combined with continuous site development maintains our reputation for quality materials and customer service.
