Getting the right cement

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.

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.

A quick quantity check

Laying 1,250 bricks at a 1:4 mix takes about 11 bags of 25 kg cement and 1.17 tonnes of building sand. Try the mortar calculator

How delivery works in Bury St Edmunds

Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Bury St Edmunds is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Cement questions

How long does cement keep?

Bagged cement has a use-by date printed on the bag; it lasts only if it is kept completely dry.

Can you deliver cement to a site with restricted access in Bury St Edmunds?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

How soon can cement be delivered in Bury St Edmunds?

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.

Do you sell cement by the pallet?

Yes. Full pallets make sense for bigger jobs; for smaller quantities bags travel with the rest of your order.
