Delivering plywood in Wallsend

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

• On busy streets in Wallsend, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

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 Wallsend?

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 Wallsend?

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.

What thickness for a flat roof deck?

18 mm structural ply is common on joists at 400 mm centres; your design may specify more.
