Before your Bexley delivery arrives
Boards are heavy and fragile at the edges; they travel flat and are best stored flat and dry. Bexley is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- With roughly 7h 50m of daylight in Bexley around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
Choosing plasterboard
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.
Tapered or square edge?
Tapered edge boards are for taping and jointing without a skim; square edge boards are normally skimmed.
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.
