Delivery to Borehamwood: what helps

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

  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Before you order joist hangers and timber connectors

Use the right nails

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

Restraint straps

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

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.

A quick quantity check

A floor 4.8 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 13 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 13 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.
