Planning the drop in Radcliffe

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

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

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

They tie walls to floors and roofs so the walls are restrained against wind and other sideways loads.
