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.

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.

Delivery to Cleethorpes: what helps

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

• With roughly 7h 27m of daylight in Cleethorpes around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
