Getting adhesives and sealants onto your Leicester site

Boxed with the rest of your order. Leicester is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• On busy streets in Leicester, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
