Before your Kidsgrove delivery arrives

Timber is delivered in packs or bundles on a flatbed; long lengths need clear access along the drop point. Kidsgrove is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around ST7 are priced to the exact address.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • In summer Kidsgrove gets around 16h 57m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Getting the right carcassing timber

Which treatment?

Treatment is specified by use class. Timber inside a building is usually use class 1 or 2; external timber out of ground contact is use class 3; timber in ground contact needs use class 4.

Cut ends

Treat any cut ends with a suitable end-grain preservative, especially on external work.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Working out quantities for your Kidsgrove job

A floor 3.6 m wide with joists spanning 3.3 m at 400 mm centres needs 10 joists, plus trimmers and noggins. The section and grade, such as 47 × 200 mm C24, come from span tables or your engineer; send us the timber schedule and we will price it.
