Delivery to Congleton: what helps

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

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• With roughly 7h 32m of daylight in Congleton around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• On busy streets in Congleton, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

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.

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.

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.

How much will you need?

A new 2.4 m partition 2.4 m high, boarded on both sides, is 11.52 m² of board: 5 sheets of 2400 × 1200 mm with 10% for cutting, and about 175 drywall screws. Try the plasterboard calculator
