Planning the drop in Kirkcaldy

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • 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 Kirkcaldy, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

A quick quantity check

Choosing OSB, MDF and chipboard

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 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.
