Before your Ballymena delivery arrives

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Getting the right CLS timber

Which size?

38 × 63 mm suits most partitions up to standard ceiling heights. 38 × 89 mm gives stiffer, taller walls and more room for insulation.

Loadbearing walls

If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.

Estimating your CLS timber

A 4.8 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 13 CLS studs, 9.6 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too

CLS Studwork Timber in Ballymena: questions

What is the difference between CLS and planed timber?

CLS has rounded edges and is sized for studwork; planed all round timber has square edges and comes in many more sizes for joinery and trim.

Do you deliver CLS timber to Ballymena?

Yes. We deliver across Ballymena, including BT42, BT43, BT44. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually. Send your list or call 0800 088 6341 and we will price it delivered to your postcode.

Can I add other materials to my Ballymena delivery?

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

Is CLS timber treated?

CLS is kiln dried rather than treated as standard, because it is meant for dry internal use. Treated CLS is available if you need it.
