Working out quantities for your Essex job
Decking 24 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 9 sheets including 10% for cutting. In P5 chipboard flooring (2400 × 600 mm) the same floor takes 19 boards.
Getting OSB, MDF and chipboard onto your Essex site
Sheets come in packs on the lorry bed, crane-lifted or hand-offloaded. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Essex.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
Picking the right product
Cutting MDF safely
MDF dust is fine; cut with extraction and wear suitable respiratory protection.
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.
OSB, MDF & Chipboard questions
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.
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 there a minimum order for delivery to Essex?
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 you deliver OSB, MDF and chipboard to a site with restricted access in Essex?
Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.
