Planning the drop in Skelmersdale

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

• On busy streets in Skelmersdale, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Picking the right product

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.

CLS Studwork Timber in Skelmersdale: questions

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

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

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.

Can you deliver CLS timber to a site with restricted access in Skelmersdale?

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.

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.
