Delivery to Maidenhead: what helps

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

  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • With roughly 7h 49m of daylight in Maidenhead around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Things to check before you order

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.

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.

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.
