Picking the right product

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.

Follow the system

Metal stud partitions and ceilings are designed as tested systems with specific boards, sections and screws. Order to the system specification, especially where fire or acoustic ratings apply.

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.

Estimating your metal studs and ceiling sections

A 4.2 m metal stud partition at 600 mm centres needs 8 studs and 8.4 m of track, plus boards and self-drilling screws. Taller walls may need deeper studs or closer centres; follow the system maker's tables.

Planning the drop in Romford

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

  • On busy streets in Romford, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • With roughly 7h 49m of daylight in Romford around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
