Before you order plasterboard

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 Kenilworth: what helps

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

• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
• In summer Kenilworth gets around 16h 48m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• With roughly 7h 41m of daylight in Kenilworth around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.

Plasterboard questions

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

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.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Kenilworth?

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.

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.
