A Family Business Since 1946
Thompson and Leigh was founded in 1946 by Frederick Edwin Thompson as a plumbing and sanitaryware supplier serving the local building trade. Built on strong customer relationships, expert product knowledge, and reliable service, the business quickly established itself as a respected name within the plumbing and bathroom industry.
Over the decades, the company evolved alongside changing customer needs and modern bathroom design trends. What began as a traditional plumbing merchant grew into a multi-location business supplying everything from essential plumbing materials to premium bathroom suites.
Still proudly family-run today, Thompson and Leigh continues to combine traditional values with a modern approach to bathroom retail, trade supply, and ecommerce.
