About Us – Our Heritage
Theodore Sons & Daughters Reclamation and Building Salvage was established in 1992. We are a family run business that prides itself in offering excellent customer service and advice to all customers whether large organisations or individuals looking to do some DIY. The yard is located on the outskirts of Bridgend near the coast in South Wales.
In 1966 Denis Theodore and a team of skilled workmen demolished a large range of buildings in Cardiff and transported them to West Wales.They then built a caravan park using almost entirely recycled materials, even managing to incorporate a 100 year old Bar/Restaurant as well as a sewage works from a national company for one park! Over the next 25 years whilst owning and developing a range of caravan parks Denis continued the trend of demolition and recycling materials building up a vast specialist knowledge of reclaimed materials.
The reclamation yard is family owned and run by Denis and Pat along with our sons Chad and Chay. We’ve also got a little help from our yard cats Pixie and Dixie.
We operate 6 days a week including bank holidays (except during the Christmas period – see our seasonal hours on the home page).
