Before you order 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.
Quantities: a worked example
A 4.2 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 12 CLS studs, 8.4 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too
Before your Chesham delivery arrives
CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Chesham is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- In summer Chesham gets around 16h 41m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

How many studs do I need?
