Things to check before you order

Tapered or square edge?

Tapered edge boards are for taping and jointing without a skim; square edge boards are normally skimmed.

Which board type?

Use moisture-resistant board in wet rooms, fire board where a fire rating is required, and acoustic board for quieter rooms. Building regulations or your design set the requirement.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Before your Amersham delivery arrives

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• On busy streets in Amersham, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• In summer Amersham gets around 16h 40m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
