Ballast & Gravel: choosing well

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.

Decorative areas

Lay decorative gravel over a weed membrane and a firm base so it does not sink.

Planning the drop in Cheshunt

Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Cheshunt is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• With roughly 7h 48m of daylight in Cheshunt around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
