Getting OSB, MDF and chipboard onto your Helensburgh site

Sheets come in packs on the lorry bed, crane-lifted or hand-offloaded. Helensburgh is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

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.

Sizing your order

Decking 8 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 3 sheets including 10% for cutting. In P5 chipboard flooring (2400 × 600 mm) the same floor takes 7 boards.
