How delivery works in Gosport

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

  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • On busy streets in Gosport, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

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.

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 Gosport

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.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Gosport?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

What does CLS stand for?

Canadian Lumber Standard. It refers to the way the timber is dried, planed and finished with rounded edges.

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

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