Innovation, quality and teamwork make Tobermore a true Northern Ireland success story
TIME never stands still for one of Ulster’s most successful paving & walling companies.
Massive expansion across the UK and Ireland in the last two years has seen Tobermore become one of the fastest growing companies in Ireland.
Record breaking sales figures year after year has earned the company an impressive position in the league of Northern Ireland’s top 100 construction companies.
Over the past few years there has been a significant expansion in the company with the opening of Tobermore's sixth Paving and Walling Centre – this time in Cork.
The Cork Paving Centre is one of six throughout Ireland and Britain.
Add to this a buoyant operation in England and Jersey, expansion in Scotland and a strong presence in the Isle of Man, Tobermore is now widely regarded as a true Northern Ireland success story. Tobermore has been recognised throughout the business world recently with a string of top accolades including a Commendation in the Belfast Telegraph-sponsored Northern Ireland Business Awards and the Marketing Communications’ prize in the Chartered Institute of Marketing awards. In September at a glittering ceremony in Athens, the company went one step further after winning the UK Business Excellence Award in 2005 by winning the top European quality award.

To add to its broad customer offering Tobermore recently launched a new Premier Design service to reinforce its strong commitment to external landscaping design.
To date, every Tobermore customer could enjoy a free 30 minute consultation with a qualified designer at any of their Paving and Walling Centres. A further 90 minute visit to the customer’s home for a more detailed design has also been a standard part of the Tobermore design service.
However, as more customers latch onto the benefits of design to make the most of the large range of Tobermore products in their outside space, the company identified the need to extend the service even further.
Now, people wanting a more detailed or larger design, can take advantage of the new Premier Service.
Premier Design Service - Not only did the customer benefit from a beautifully paved driveway with a uniquely styled boundary wall, they also created double family patio areas with steps and circle features for their own private use.
For a fee of £250, the comprehensive landscape design service offers a site visit, survey and measure-up, discussion with client, creation of a colour design sketch and calculation of quantities. The client is then able to appoint his or her own contractor or choose one from the Tobermore register.
