Which CLS timber can you order in Frome?

  • FixingsScrews, nails and frame fixings to suit.
  • Noggins and head platesCut from the same stock.
  • 38 × 63 mm CLSFor non-loadbearing partitions and boxing in.
  • 38 × 89 mm CLSFor taller partitions, more insulation depth or heavier boards.

Delivery to Frome: what helps

CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Frome is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • In summer Frome gets around 16h 35m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

A quick quantity check

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

Picking the right product

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.

Your questions answered

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 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.
