Decorative areas

All-in ballast is convenient for general concrete. For more control over the mix, use separate sharp sand and gravel.

Getting ballast and gravel onto your Livingston site

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

• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
• In summer Livingston gets around 17h 36m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
