How delivery works in Aberystwyth

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Aberystwyth is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • In summer Aberystwyth gets around 16h 49m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Things to check before you order

Finish coat

Board finish is made for plasterboard; multi-finish suits most undercoats and board.

Fresh stock matters

Old plaster sets fast and unevenly. Order it close to when you need it and keep bags dry.

Common questions from Aberystwyth

How much plaster do I need to skim a wall?

A 25 kg bag of finishing plaster covers roughly 10 square metres at a 2 mm skim, but coverage varies with the background and thickness. Check the bag.

Can I add other materials to my Aberystwyth delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from plaster to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

How soon can plaster be delivered in Aberystwyth?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

What is the difference between multi-finish and board finish?

Board finish is designed for skimming plasterboard. Multi-finish works on plasterboard and on undercoat plasters, so it is the more flexible choice.
