  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Plywood 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.

Do you deliver plywood to trades and homeowners in Melton Mowbray?

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

How soon can plywood be delivered in Melton Mowbray?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

What plywood should I use outside?

Use plywood with an exterior bond, class 3 under BS EN 636, or marine ply for very wet conditions.
