CLS Studwork Timber delivered to Swanley

CLS (Canadian Lumber Standard) timber is kiln-dried, planed softwood with rounded edges, sized at 38 × 63 mm and 38 × 89 mm, used mainly for internal stud walls.

We deliver CLS timber to sites, driveways and yards across Swanley, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

Choosing CLS timber

Stud spacing

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

Loadbearing walls

If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.

How much will you need?

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

Planning the drop in Swanley

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

  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around BR8 are priced to the exact address.

Common questions from Swanley

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.

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

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

Can I add other materials to my Swanley 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.

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.
