• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• On busy streets in Atherton, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• With roughly 7h 28m of daylight in Atherton around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.

Picking the right product

OSB or plywood?

OSB3 is usually cheaper and fine for most structural decking in humid conditions. Plywood is stiffer, takes fixings near edges better and performs better where it may get wet.

Which flooring?

P5 chipboard flooring is the standard moisture-resistant floor deck. 18 mm is common at 400 mm joist centres and 22 mm at 600 mm centres, but follow the maker's span table.

Quantities: a worked example

Decking 10 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 4 sheets including 10% for cutting. In P5 chipboard flooring (2400 × 600 mm) the same floor takes 8 boards.

OSB, MDF & Chipboard questions

Do you deliver OSB, MDF and chipboard to trades and homeowners in Atherton?

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

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Atherton?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

Can OSB get wet?

OSB3 copes with humid conditions and short exposure during construction, but it should not be left in the rain for long or used where it stays wet.

Is MDF waterproof?

No. Moisture-resistant MDF handles humid rooms better than standard MDF but must still be sealed and kept out of direct water.
