Getting carcassing timber onto your Wolverhampton site

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

  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

A quick quantity check

A floor 6 m wide with joists spanning 4.2 m at 400 mm centres needs 16 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.

Things to check before you order

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.

C16 or C24?

C24 is stronger and stiffer, so it can span further or use a smaller section. Span tables and your structural drawings decide which grade and size you need.

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.

Common questions from Wolverhampton

Can you cut timber to length?

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

What sizes of joist do I need?

That depends on the span, spacing, loading and grade. Use span tables or your engineer's design; building control will check.

Can I add other materials to my Wolverhampton delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from carcassing timber to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

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

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.
