• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

Before you order CLS timber

Stud spacing

Studs are usually set at 400 mm or 600 mm centres to suit 1200 mm wide plasterboard.

38 × 63 mm suits most partitions up to standard ceiling heights. 38 × 89 mm gives stiffer, taller walls and more room for insulation.

Ordering CLS timber for South Shields: FAQs

Do you deliver CLS timber to trades and homeowners in South Shields?

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

What is the difference between CLS and planed timber?

CLS has rounded edges and is sized for studwork; planed all round timber has square edges and comes in many more sizes for joinery and trim.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to South Shields?

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.

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.
