• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around CO1 are priced to the exact address.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• On busy streets in Colchester, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Getting the right OSB, MDF and chipboard

Cutting MDF safely

MDF dust is fine; cut with extraction and wear suitable respiratory protection.

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.
