Delivery to Peterborough: what helps

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

• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

Metal Stud & Ceiling Systems: choosing well

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.

Stud width and height

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

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Your questions answered

Are metal studs better than timber?

They are straight, light and dimensionally stable. Timber is often easier for domestic jobs and for fixing heavy items. Both work well when designed properly.

Can I add other materials to my Peterborough delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from metal studs and ceiling sections to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
