Things to check before you order

Match the joist size

Hangers are sized to the joist width and depth. Order to your timber schedule.

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.

Do I nail every hole in a joist hanger?

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

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