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.

Quantities: a worked example

Getting cement onto your Gorseinon site

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

• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around SA4 are priced to the exact address.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Cement questions

Do you deliver cement to trades and homeowners in Gorseinon?

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

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.

Can I add other materials to my Gorseinon 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.

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.
