Before you order cement
Working in cold weather
Mortar and concrete should not be laid when temperatures are near freezing. Protect fresh work from frost.
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.
Planning the drop in Cardiff
Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Cardiff is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
Questions about cement delivery in Cardiff
Can I add other materials to my Cardiff delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from cement to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
How many bags of cement for 1,000 bricks?
At a 1:4 mortar mix, about 8 to 9 bags of 25 kg cement and roughly 1 tonne of building sand, allowing for waste.
Do you deliver cement to trades and homeowners in Cardiff?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
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.
