Plywood delivered in County Antrim towns

Quantities: a worked example

Decking 36 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 14 sheets including 10% for cutting.

Delivery to County Antrim: what helps

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • On busy streets in County Antrim, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Plywood: choosing well

Structural use

Roof decks and floors need plywood marked for structural use. Check the thickness against the joist spacing.

Thickness for floors

18 mm or more is common for floors on joists at 400 mm centres; follow your design.

Plywood in County Antrim: questions

Is shuttering ply suitable for building?

It is made for concrete formwork, not for permanent structural decks. Use structural ply for roofs and floors.

What thickness for a flat roof deck?

18 mm structural ply is common on joists at 400 mm centres; your design may specify more.

Can I add other materials to my County Antrim delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from plywood to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Can you deliver plywood to a site with restricted access in County Antrim?

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.
