Ferguson Home Product Scraper

Export the Ferguson Home (formerly Build.com) catalog as clean, structured data. Search by keyword or list an entire category and get prices, SKUs, every finish variant, live stock status, ratings, specifications and images.

Ferguson Home is one of the largest US retailers for plumbing, lighting, appliances, bath, kitchen and hardware. This actor reads the product data from Ferguson's own mobile app backend, so every row reflects exactly what a shopper sees on the site.

No proxy needed. The actor runs straight out of the box; a proxy is optional.

Who it's for

• Pricing & market analysts — track prices and MSRP across brands and finishes.
• E‑commerce & marketplace sellers — build competitive pricing and assortment data.
• PropTech / renovation SaaS — enrich product catalogs with specs, images and stock.
• Manufacturers & brands — monitor how your products are listed, priced and rated.
• Researchers & data teams — bulk‑export a large home‑improvement catalog to JSON/CSV/Excel.

Scheduling & webhooks

Use Schedules to run the actor on a cron (e.g. daily price checks) and add a webhook on ACTOR.RUN.SUCCEEDED to push fresh rows into your database, Google Sheet, or downstream pipeline the moment a run finishes.

Use from AI assistants (MCP)

This actor is callable from AI agents through the Apify MCP server, so an assistant can fetch Ferguson Home product data on demand. Point your MCP‑enabled client (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, etc.) at https://mcp.apify.com, add this actor, and call it with the same input fields documented above.

Export formats

Results are stored in an Apify dataset and can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML or XML, or pulled via the Apify API.

FAQ

Where does the data come from? Ferguson Home's own public product API — the same endpoints the mobile app uses. No login or personal data is accessed.

How fresh is it? Every run fetches live data at request time (prices, stock and ratings reflect the moment of scraping).

How many products can I scrape? From a few to tens of thousands — control it with maxItems. Very large jobs are paginated automatically and checkpoint their progress, so an interrupted run resumes without duplicating rows.

Do I need a proxy? No. The API responds from any IP, so no proxy configuration is required.

What does a broad category return? Broad categories (e.g. 133150 Kitchen Faucets) are navigation hubs with no listings of their own — the actor expands them into their product-bearing sub-categories and scrapes those in turn.

Is scraping this data legal? The actor collects publicly available product information. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with applicable laws and Ferguson's terms.
