Posi-Joists delivered across the South of England

HETS designs and manufactures Posi-Joists at our factory in Swanmore, Hampshire. We deliver across the south coast, the South West, the Home Counties and London. Every order includes a free design and structural calculations for building control, and our standard lead time is 15–20 days from design approval.

 

We have supplied floors and roofs from Lymington to Camden, and from Brighton to Cheltenham. Below are the areas we cover, with some of the places our joists have gone.

All 14 counties on this page sit in our Local delivery zone, so joist delivery costs the same to Southampton as it does to Kent or Gloucester.

  • Fast Track (5 day): £500
  • Express (48 hour): £650
  • Metalwork & fixings: free standard delivery on orders over £200; next day £40

Plymouth, Milton Keynes and the Enfield, Ilford and Romford postcodes are in our Medium zone (£400). We also deliver across the rest of England and Wales. Just ask.

 

Delivery prices can change with fuel prices, which are outside our control, so every design quote includes the exact delivery cost for your site.

Berkshire: a project in Hungerford. We cover Reading, Newbury, Bracknell, Wokingham, Windsor and Maidenhead.

 

Buckinghamshire: in Farnham Common, a builder made a measuring error on site, so we re-engineered the design and the site only needed a minor adjustment. Near Gerrards Cross, we made and delivered joists at very short notice to keep the project on programme. We cover High Wycombe, Aylesbury, Amersham, Beaconsfield and Gerrards Cross.
