Choosing plywood

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.

Thickness for floors

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

Delivering plywood in Walkden

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

  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Sizing your order

Decking 12 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 5 sheets including 10% for cutting.
