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 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.

Delivering metal studs and ceiling sections in Shepherds Bush

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

• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

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.

Common questions from Shepherds Bush

Do you deliver metal studs and ceiling sections to trades and homeowners in Shepherds Bush?

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