Delivery to Holyhead: what helps

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

• With roughly 7h 30m of daylight in Holyhead around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• In summer Holyhead gets around 17h 00m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Getting the right OSB, MDF and chipboard

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 18 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 7 sheets including 10% for cutting. In P5 chipboard flooring (2400 × 600 mm) the same floor takes 14 boards.

Ordering OSB, MDF and chipboard for Holyhead: FAQs
