Plywood Buying Guide
Choosing the right plywood for your project is essential to ensure success and durability. Here's what you need to know:
Consider Your Project
Determine the specific requirements of your project, such as whether it will be exposed to moisture, if it needs to be load-bearing, or if appearance is important.
Plywood Grades
Understand the different grades of plywood, from A (highest quality, fewest defects) to D (lower quality with more knots and imperfections).
Thickness Matters
Select the appropriate thickness based on your project's structural needs. Thicker plywood provides more strength and stability.
Moisture Resistance
For outdoor or high-moisture areas, choose pressure-treated or marine-grade plywood to prevent warping and rot.

Expert Tips for Working with Plywood
Get professional advice on how to select, install, and maintain plywood for your projects.
Choosing the Right Plywood
- Consider the environment where the plywood will be used. For wet areas, opt for pressure-treated or marine-grade plywood.
- Match the plywood grade to your project. Higher grades (A or B) are better for visible surfaces, while lower grades (C or D) work for hidden or structural areas.
- Check the plywood thickness. Thicker sheets (3/4 inch) are ideal for load-bearing applications, while thinner sheets (1/4 inch) are suitable for decorative elements.
Cutting and Installing Plywood
- Use a sharp blade designed for plywood to ensure clean cuts and minimize splintering.
- When installing plywood, leave a 1/8-inch gap between sheets to allow for expansion and contraction due to temperature and humidity changes.
- Pre-drill holes for screws to prevent the wood from splitting, especially near the edges of the plywood.
Finishing and Protecting Plywood
- Sand the surface of the plywood before painting or staining to achieve a smooth finish.
- Apply a primer to plywood before painting to improve adhesion and coverage of the topcoat.
- For outdoor projects, use a high-quality exterior paint or stain with UV protection to prevent the plywood from weathering prematurely.
Maintaining Plywood
- Regularly inspect plywood for signs of damage, such as cracks or water stains, and address issues promptly.
- Keep plywood dry to prevent rot and warping. Wipe up spills immediately and ensure proper ventilation in areas where plywood is installed.
- For plywood used in high-traffic areas, consider applying a protective topcoat, such as polyurethane, to enhance durability.
