Getting the right CLS timber
Loadbearing walls
If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.
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.
Quantities: a worked example
A 3 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 9 CLS studs, 6 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too
Planning the drop in Portslade
CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Portslade is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
Your questions answered
Can I add other materials to my Portslade delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from CLS timber to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
Do you deliver CLS timber to trades and homeowners in Portslade?
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.
Is CLS timber treated?
CLS is kiln dried rather than treated as standard, because it is meant for dry internal use. Treated CLS is available if you need it.
