Sheet Material Cutting

Yes, using our high precision panel saws we can cut chipboard, OSB, plywood, and MDF for shelves, wardrobes, bathroom flooring, and general project needs. This service is only available for sheet materials purchased in our stores, and only at our Willesden, Watford, Kennington, and West Hampstead branches. On most days cutting can be done while you wait, or you can request a quote in advance so your order is ready when you arrive. Call 01923 831 686 or pop into your closest branch to find out more. See our sheet material cutting page for full details.

Our in-branch panel saws can cut chipboard, OSB, plywood and MDF. These are the boards most often used for shelving, wardrobes, cupboards, flooring and general joinery work. Our range covers standard boards as well as specialist options such as moisture resistant MDF and structural, birch and marine plywood. If you are unsure whether a particular board can be cut, staff at the counter can check before you buy. You can browse the full range on our sheet materials page.

Sheet material cutting is available at four of our branches: West Hampstead, Watford, Willesden and Kennington. These branches have the panel saws needed to cut full size boards accurately. The service is not available at our Kilburn or Tottenham branches. If one of those is your nearest branch, it is worth calling ahead to arrange your order at one of the four cutting branches instead. Call 01923 831 686 if you are unsure which branch suits you best.

No, our cutting service is only available for sheet materials purchased from MP Moran. This lets our team know exactly what material, thickness and grade is going through the saw, which helps keep every cut safe and accurate. It also means we can stand behind the quality of both the board and the cut. If you need boards cut, simply buy them in branch or order them for collection from one of our cutting branches. Staff can then cut them to your sizes before you take them away.

Yes, on most days cutting can be done while you wait at the branch. How long it takes depends on the number of boards, the number of cuts and how busy the branch is at the time. A few straightforward cuts are usually quick, while a large cutting list naturally takes longer. If you have a big order or are working to a tight schedule, it is best to arrange your cuts in advance. Call 01923 831 686 to check current waiting times before you travel.

Yes, you can request a quote in advance so your order is cut and ready when you arrive. This is the easiest option for larger jobs, trade orders or detailed cutting lists. Send or give the branch your full list of sizes, along with the material and thickness you need. The team will confirm the quote and let you know when your boards will be ready to collect. Call 01923 831 686 or pop into your nearest cutting branch to get started.

The most useful thing to bring is a clear cutting list showing every panel size you need, in millimetres, along with the quantity of each. Include the material type and thickness, such as 18mm MDF or 12mm plywood, so staff can match the right board. Double check your measurements before you arrive, since boards cannot be made larger once they are cut. It also helps to note which way the grain should run on veneered or decorative boards. Staff can look over your list and flag anything that might need adjusting before cutting starts.

Customers use our cutting service for everything from shelves and wardrobes to bathroom flooring and general project needs. Having boards cut to size in branch saves time on site and reduces the need for a large saw at home. It can also make full size sheets much easier to transport in a car or small van. Tradespeople often use the service to prepare panels for fitted furniture, boxing in, and subfloor work. Our team can suggest the most suitable board for your project, such as moisture resistant MDF for bathrooms and kitchens.

Cutting charges, where they apply, depend on the number of boards and cuts in your order. The best way to get an accurate price is to ask for a quote at the counter or when you call ahead with your cutting list. Staff will confirm the cost of both the materials and the cutting before any work begins. This means there are no surprises when you come to collect your order.
