How delivery works in West Bromwich

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

• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

Choosing carcassing timber

Cut ends

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

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.

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.

Questions about carcassing timber delivery in West Bromwich

Can you deliver carcassing timber to a site with restricted access in West Bromwich?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Ask when you request a price; we will tell you what cutting is possible for your order.

Do you deliver carcassing timber to trades and homeowners in West Bromwich?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Why is my treated timber green or brown?

The colour comes from the preservative. It fades over time and does not tell you how well the timber is protected; the use class does.
