Before your Birmingham delivery arrives

CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Birmingham 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.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around B1 are priced to the exact address.

Sizing your order

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

Things to check before you order

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.

Stud spacing

Studs are usually set at 400 mm or 600 mm centres to suit 1200 mm wide plasterboard.

Common questions from Birmingham

How many studs do I need?

Divide the wall length by the stud spacing (400 or 600 mm), add one, then add plates and noggins. Our plasterboard calculator gives the boards for the same wall.

Do you deliver CLS timber to trades and homeowners in Birmingham?

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

Can CLS be used for loadbearing walls?

Only if it is strength graded and the wall is designed for the load. Ask for graded CLS if your design calls for it.

How soon can CLS timber be delivered in Birmingham?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
