Planning the drop in County Armagh

Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

All-in ballast is convenient for general concrete. For more control over the mix, use separate sharp sand and gravel.

Gravel size

20 mm gravel suits concrete and drainage layers; 10 mm and pea gravel suit bedding pipes and paths.
