B&Q has extended its TradePoint loyalty discount programme from the UK to Ireland.

The scheme offers tradespeople and related businesses access to discounts and savings across almost everything in B&Q’s eight stores.

TradePoint is exclusive to members of the trade such as electricians, plasterers, fitters, plumbers, roofers, decorators, joiners, tilers, builders, landscapers and facilities and maintenance professionals, who are invited to sign-up in store for their membership card.

All new members will receive a 10% discount until 31 July 2023. Thereafter, discounts of between 5% – 10% will be applied as per the scheme terms and customer spend, the retailer said.

At dedicated TradePoint counters, members can also avail of free services such as timber cutting, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom planning and free Valspar trade paint mixing.

John Eason, B&Q retail director in Ireland, commented: “We are acutely aware of the challenges being faced by thousands of small businesses and tradespeople as the cost of doing business continues to rise, so there’s no doubt that TradePoint is being introduced at a critical time.

“The savings can add up quite considerably, potentially offering members of the trade savings of hundreds if not thousands of euros over the course of a year.”

B&Q stores, owned by Kingfisher plc, open from 8am – 8pm seven days a week (7am opening in Liffey Valley).

Its stores are in Galway, Athlone, Limerick, Naas, Cork and three Dublin stores in Swords, Tallaght and Liffey Valley.
