Nicholls & Clarke Group company N&C Tiles and Bathrooms has opened its 18^th showroom in the UK in the premises that formerly housed Tubs & Tiles in Coventry.

A&M Heath and bathroom retailer Tubs & Tiles closed before Christmas 2016, following a "difficult trading period". They had been trading since 1966 as a distributor and, in more recent years, had developed an award-winning showroom in Coventry. The appointment of an insolvency practitioner led eventually to an auction of the assets, which have been bought by N&C.

The Coventry site will continue to offer its existing range of products. It will also provide trade customers with access to the N&C range of 60,000 products. Nicobond adhesives and tiling solutions, bathroom and wet-room products will be added to the stock in the coming weeks.
