• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• In summer Ampthill gets around 16h 44m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Common questions from Ampthill

What screws for plasterboard?

Drywall screws: coarse thread for timber studs, fine thread or self-drilling for metal.

Can you deliver screws and nails to a site with restricted access in Ampthill?

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.

Can I use ordinary screws with treated timber?

Outdoors, use galvanised, coated or stainless fixings to avoid corrosion.

Can I add other materials to my Ampthill delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from screws and nails to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
