Boxed or bundled with your timber. Atherton is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• With roughly 7h 28m of daylight in Atherton around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Getting the right joist hangers and timber connectors

Restraint straps

Building regulations require lateral restraint in many situations; your design shows where.

Use the right nails

Connectors only perform with the fixings specified, usually square-twisted or connector nails in every hole the maker requires.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Your questions answered

Do I nail every hole in a joist hanger?

Follow the maker's instructions; many hangers need specific nails in specific holes to reach their rated load.

Do you deliver joist hangers and timber connectors to trades and homeowners in Atherton?

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

What size joist hanger do I need?

One that matches your joist's width and depth, and the type of support: masonry or timber.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Atherton?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
