Things to check before you order

Stud width and height

Taller walls need deeper studs or closer centres; the system maker's height tables show the limits.

Metal or timber?

Metal studs are straight, light and do not shrink or twist; timber is easier for fixing heavy items and is more familiar on domestic jobs.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

How delivery works in Kilmarnock

Sections come in bundles in long lengths; tell us about access for 3 m plus lengths. Kilmarnock is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • With roughly 7h 02m of daylight in Kilmarnock around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
