Getting plywood onto your Purley site

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Purley 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.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.

Choosing 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.
