Getting cement onto your Mid Glamorgan site

Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Mid Glamorgan.

• On busy streets in Mid Glamorgan, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

Before you order cement

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.

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.
