Before you order sand

Soft or sharp?

Use soft building sand for mortar because it gives a smooth, sticky mix. Use sharp sand where strength and drainage matter: screeds, concrete and paving beds.

Delivery to Bangor (Gwynedd): what helps

Bulk bags are usually crane-lifted onto a drive or kerb where the vehicle and access allow; small bags travel with a mixed load. Bangor (Gwynedd) is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
