Getting plasterboard onto your Fife site

Boards are heavy and fragile at the edges; they travel flat and are best stored flat and dry. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Fife.

• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around KY are priced to the exact address.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

Things to check before you order

Tapered or square edge?

Tapered edge boards are for taping and jointing without a skim; square edge boards are normally skimmed.

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

Your questions answered

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Fife?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

How soon can plasterboard be delivered in Fife?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Can plasterboard be stored outside?

No. Keep boards flat, off the ground and dry, ideally inside the building.

What plasterboard for a bathroom?

Moisture-resistant board for general bathroom walls and ceilings. In shower areas use a tile backer board designed for wet areas.
