Cement & Aggregates

Cement delivered to Portadown

Cement is the grey powder that binds sand and aggregate into mortar and concrete; in the UK it is mostly sold as general-purpose Portland cement in 25 kg bags.

SK Trade prices cement delivered to Portadown and the rest of County Armagh, so the cost and the delivery date are agreed before anything is loaded.

Cement: choosing well

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.

Working in cold weather

Mortar and concrete should not be laid when temperatures are near freezing. Protect fresh work from frost.

Delivery to Portadown: what helps

Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Portadown?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

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 sell cement by the pallet?

Yes. Full pallets make sense for bigger jobs; for smaller quantities bags travel with the rest of your order.
