Introducing our new website 

 

We’re excited to announce the launch of our brand-new website, designed to showcase how we’re transforming retail spaces across the UK through our merchandising and installation expertise.
The new site isn’t just a fresh coat of digital paint – it represents a fundamental shift in how we connect with our clients, our field teams, and the retail industry as a whole. Visitors can now easily explore our full range of services, from large-scale store transformations to flexible peak-period support.

One of the biggest improvements is our enhanced worker portal, giving our field teams better tools for everything from safety reporting to project management. It’s part of our commitment to delivering excellence efficiently across every project we undertake.
Want to see our work in action? Our new case studies section features recent successes with major retailers like B&Q, Morrisons, and many more, showing how we’re making a real difference in retail environments across the country.

We’ve also created a knowledge hub where we’ll be sharing industry insights, team achievements, and the latest retail trends. It’s our way of keeping everyone – from clients to team members – informed about what’s shaping retail’s future.

Plus, whether you’re interested in working with us, joining our team, or just want to learn more about what we do, our new website makes it easier than ever to get in touch and start a conversation about transforming your retail space.

We see this new website as just the beginning. We’re committed to continually improving and evolving our digital presence to serve you better.

Meet the team: Martin Sweeney

Meet Martin Sweeney, Installations Director

How did your journey at Bluestones One begin and what has it been like since?I joined the business in February 2020 and was really excited with my role and new opportunity to develop. Unfortunately, I was grounded slightly by the pandemic. This then presented the business and me with lots of obstacles which we had never experienced but with the support from the internal team and from our partner company, Bluestones Investment Group (BIG), we overcame these. Whilst many businesses have failed to survive, Installations continued to develop and grow its customer base. The next few years may present many challenges, but I am excited to drive the business forward in the coming years. What do you enjoy about working in this industry?I believe you must be a self-motivator and be ready to tackle daily challenges. Each day presents itself with new challenges, and whilst this can be difficult, you get a sense of achievement when you deliver for the customer. One thing that really excites me is the opportunity to see lots of the UK whilst on client and site meetings. We have a fantastic internal support team who are young and ambitious, and this allows us to develop.
