Ballast & Gravel delivered to Epsom

Ballast (all-in ballast) is a mixed sand and gravel aggregate used with cement to make concrete; gravel and shingle are graded stones used for drainage, bedding and decoration.

SK Trade prices ballast and gravel delivered to Epsom and the rest of Surrey, so the cost and the delivery date are agreed before anything is loaded.

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.

Before your Epsom delivery arrives

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

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around KT17 are priced to the exact address.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Estimating your ballast and gravel

A base 3 × 1.8 m and 150 mm deep is 0.81 m³ of concrete. At 1:5 with 5% extra that is about 1.86 tonnes of all-in ballast and 13 bags of cement. Try the concrete calculator

Common questions from Epsom

Do you deliver ballast and gravel to trades and homeowners in Epsom?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Do you deliver ballast in bags?

Yes, bulk bags for most jobs and small bags for small quantities or tight access.

How much gravel do I need for a path?

Multiply the area by the depth (often 40 to 50 mm for decorative gravel) to get cubic metres, then allow about 1.5 tonnes per cubic metre.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Epsom?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
