Win with Wood 2016 competition open until Friday 30th September ‘16

Protek’s Win with Wood competition is open up until Friday 30th September 2016.

First prize is a beautifully crafted Cotswold 5ft bench from Hutton Garden Products RRP £325.00 plus free tins of Royal Superior Wood Finish in your chosen colour(s) worth over £115.00 and a selection of goodies! Second place winner will receive an attractive Worthing Hanging Bird Table from the Hutton Premium bird range and Third place will receive a 20% discount voucher from our online shop.
