Things to check before you order

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

How much will you need?

A 9 m metal stud partition at 600 mm centres needs 16 studs and 18 m of track, plus boards and self-drilling screws. Taller walls may need deeper studs or closer centres; follow the system maker's tables.

Delivery to Stenhousemuir: what helps

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

• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
• With roughly 6h 56m of daylight in Stenhousemuir around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• In summer Stenhousemuir gets around 17h 38m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
