Before you order CLS timber
Loadbearing walls
If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.
Stud spacing
Studs are usually set at 400 mm or 600 mm centres to suit 1200 mm wide plasterboard.
Questions about CLS timber delivery in Boston
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.
Can you deliver CLS timber to a site with restricted access in Boston?
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.
Do you deliver CLS timber to trades and homeowners in Boston?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
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.
