How delivery works in Ayr

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Ayr is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

Choosing plywood

Thickness for floors

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

Structural use

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

Quantities: a worked example

Decking 8 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 3 sheets including 10% for cutting.
