How delivery works in Hyde

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

  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

Before you order plasterboard

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.

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.

Plasterboard questions

Can you deliver plasterboard to a site with restricted access in Hyde?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

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.

Can plasterboard be stored outside?

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

How soon can plasterboard be delivered in Hyde?

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.
