How delivery works in Buckinghamshire
Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Buckinghamshire.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around MK are priced to the exact address.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
Getting the right ballast and gravel
Gravel size
20 mm gravel suits concrete and drainage layers; 10 mm and pea gravel suit bedding pipes and paths.
Ballast or separate sand and gravel?
All-in ballast is convenient for general concrete. For more control over the mix, use separate sharp sand and gravel.
