Picking the right product

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.

Which thickness?

12.5 mm is the everyday choice for walls and ceilings on 400 or 600 mm centres; 9.5 mm suits ceilings at 400 mm centres. Fire and acoustic designs may call for 15 mm or two layers.

In Northern Ireland building work follows the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland), with guidance in the Technical Booklets, and applications go to the council's building control team.

How delivery works in Armagh

Boards are heavy and fragile at the edges; they travel flat and are best stored flat and dry. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around BT60 are priced to the exact address.

Ordering plasterboard for Armagh: FAQs

Do you deliver plasterboard to trades and homeowners in Armagh?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Armagh?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

How many plasterboards do I need?

Divide the wall or ceiling area by 2.88 m² (one 2400 × 1200 sheet) and add about 10 percent for cutting. Our plasterboard calculator also gives the screws.

Can plasterboard be stored outside?

No. Keep boards flat, off the ground and dry, ideally inside the building.
