Before you order ballast and gravel
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.
How delivery works in Kirkcaldy
Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Kirkcaldy is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
