Things to check before you order

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.

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.

Getting plasterboard onto your Bracknell site

Boards are heavy and fragile at the edges; they travel flat and are best stored flat and dry. Bracknell is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
