Delivering ballast and gravel in Kilmarnock

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

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Ballast & Gravel: choosing well

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.

How much gravel do I need for a path?
