How delivery works in Campbeltown

Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Campbeltown is in an area where deliveries are priced individually because of the distance and access, so we quote each order separately.

• With roughly 7h 04m of daylight in Campbeltown around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• In summer Campbeltown gets around 17h 29m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

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.

Estimating your cement

Laying 2,500 bricks at a 1:4 mix takes about 22 bags of 25 kg cement and 2.34 tonnes of building sand. Try the mortar calculator
