Getting joist hangers and timber connectors onto your Southport site

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

• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• In summer Southport gets around 17h 04m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
