Choosing sand
Colour of mortar
Building sand colour changes the mortar colour. For matching existing joints, a sample is worth it.
Covering bulk bags
Cover bags to stop sand drying out or getting saturated, and keep it clean of debris.
Your questions answered
How much sand per 1,000 bricks?
Roughly 1 tonne of soft building sand at a 1:4 mortar mix.
How soon can sand be delivered in Camberley?
We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
How much sand do I need for a screed?
Multiply the floor area by the screed depth to get cubic metres, then allow about 1.6 tonnes of sharp sand per cubic metre plus cement at your mix. Our sand calculator does the sums.
Can I add other materials to my Camberley delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from sand to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
