Things to check before you order

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.

Wales has its own Approved Documents, including its own Part L for energy efficiency, and building control is handled by the local authority or a registered approver.

Planning the drop in Colwyn Bay

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

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
