Delivery to Long Eaton: what helps

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

• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Estimating your plywood

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

Getting the right plywood

Structural use

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

Interior or exterior?

BS EN 636 classes plywood as class 1 (dry), class 2 (humid) or class 3 (exterior). Use class 3 for anything exposed to the weather.

Your questions answered

Is shuttering ply suitable for building?

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

How many sheets of plywood do I need?

Divide the area by 2.98 m² (the area of an 8 × 4 sheet) and add about 10 percent for cutting.

Do you deliver plywood to trades and homeowners in Long Eaton?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Can you deliver plywood to a site with restricted access in Long Eaton?

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.
