Getting cement onto your Bletchley site
Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Bletchley is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
Getting the right cement
Storage
Cement goes off if it gets damp. Keep bags on a pallet, covered and off the ground, and order what you will use within its shelf life.
How much cement do I need?
Work from the mix: a 1:4 mortar or a 1:5 concrete mix tells you the share of cement. Our calculators turn wall or slab sizes into bags.
