Picking the right product

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.

Delivery to Denton: what helps

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

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around M34 are priced to the exact address.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

Common questions from Denton

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.

How soon can cement be delivered in Denton?

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 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.

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
