Building Recyclers is a yard of new and second-hand building supplies at 3 Raiha Street in Elsdon, Porirua. The website lists timber, aluminium windows, general hardware, sliding and French doors, door handles, locks and latches, stainless steel benchtops, storage units and ranch sliders. Most of the stock is under cover. The website says the business has been run by a husband and wife team since 2002, and that the husband is a qualified joiner with more than 35 years' experience who can advise on a project.
Shoppers mention the doors most often, and they praise the helpful staff. Windows, kitchen cabinets and second-hand building supplies come up too. One customer who rang from Whanganui was helped to find ceiling panels after other places had none, and was given a good price. Shoppers say the handy location and easy access are a plus, and a customer toilet is available. Views on price are mixed: one shopper found the pricing fine but advised comparing with other places.
