quality mdf supplier

[chippymart]

Hi all
Can anyone recommend a reliable uk distributor of MDF. Getting fed up of using builder merchants suppling crappy quality mdf. Had a cabinet to build the other day as a real last minute job and I knew if I could get built in their time scale it would lead to more work.
My MDF turn up and included was a sheet the must have used for a top sheet full of scratches, footprints and bird s**t. Only needed one good face so thought I could get away with it. As soon as I cut it though it warpped all over the place.
Had to lose an hour of evening work time to go and get a sheet from Wickes.

You'll want this in a different section of the forum.

Try champion timber they've got lots of branches not too far from you and they deliver free any quantity. If you want real good medite stuff then I use cutwrights at hanworth they cut it all to size not cheap but in our game time is money. They use a computer controlled saw and also edge stuff if you need it. I used to cut all sheets up for built-in jobs now I use cutwrights and just biscuit everything together.

Can anyone recommend a supplier like either of the above within striking distance of Sheffield?

Can't help with suppliers, but if you want really good MDF go for the MRMDF option. Yes a bit more expensive, but much, much firmer and less fluffy.

We are now moving over to MR for all our work, I hear the blue exterior is being replaced not that I have ever used it.

I always use MRMDF now as it cuts down the time in prep. Much more stable and denser than the fluffy stuff. I get a good discount now too.
