Getting plasterboard onto your Campbeltown site

Boards are heavy and fragile at the edges; they travel flat and are best stored flat and dry. Campbeltown is in an area where deliveries are priced individually because of the distance and access, so we quote each order separately.

  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around PA28 are priced to the exact address.

Plasterboard: choosing well

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.

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 Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.
