Before you order 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.

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 5.4 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 15 CLS studs, 10.8 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too

Before your Trowbridge delivery arrives

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

  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Your questions answered

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.
