How delivery works in Eltham

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

  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

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.

Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors in Eltham: questions

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.

Can I add other materials to my Eltham delivery?

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

What size joist hanger do I need?

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

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

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