2026 Exhibition Dates
2026 might only be a couple of weeks old but we are already turning our attention to the first couple of exhibitions that we have organised for this year.
This year we are hoping to be at more events than ever before. Last year we attended a record 10 exhibitions across the UK from Edinburgh to Exeter and this year we could potentially be doing more!
Our first event takes place at the end of January at the National Self Build and Renovation Centre, in Swindon, which is the first of their traditional 3 events across the year. The second being in May and the final one in October. The January event is over 3 days with the other two being 2 day events.
The first of the Build It Live shows takes place in February down in Maidstone. At the end of May there is a location change for the “West” exhibition. After leaving Bicester BIL has now found a new home at The Three Counties Showground in Malvern. This should be a bigger event than that at Bicester and we are looking forward to seeing what a new venue will bring.
The last of our standard exhibitions is at the Homebuilding and Renovating events. Our main exhibition of the takes place at the NEC in Birmingham in March. This 4 day exhibition has been our premiere event for a number of years and this year will be no different. We have had the pleasure of being at this event from 2014 and we are looking forward to being there again this year. The other HB&R shows that we are signed up for are Edinburgh (October) and also ExCel, London (September). We may also add an extra event later in the year.

We are also looking at another build show in London, if possible, so keep an eye on our social media channels and we will update you in due course with further information.

Q
What are the Lewis Deck sheet sizes?
AQ: What sheet sizes are held in stock for delivery within a few days after order? A: We stock 2500mm and 1300mm sheets. These are all 630mm wide and 16mm deep. Deliveries are made via the pallet network directly to site. The smaller sheets are aimed at small bathroom renovation projects and can be supplied in small numbers via TNT. 2.5* and 1.3m sheets allow for the 100mm overlap to occur over a joist, with joist centres being either 300mm, 400mm, 600mm, 800mm*, 1200mm and 2400mm*. (*2.5m sheet only) For larger projects we are able to produce bespoke sheet sizes if required, please get in contact to discuss other options for sheet sizes.

Q
Why don't my Lewis sheets interlock like they do in the video?
AQ: Why don't my sheets interlock like they do in the video? A: The sheets have two sides (one printed, one plain), the dovetails on either side are different widths, it is then necessary to alternate the sheets print up and then print down.
QIs this a question?
AIf it is, this is an answer.
