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.
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.
Planning the drop in Ruislip
Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Ruislip 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.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
How much will you need?
Laying 2,500 bricks at a 1:4 mix takes about 22 bags of 25 kg cement and 2.34 tonnes of building sand. Try the mortar calculator
