Getting the right 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.

Getting cement onto your Runcorn site

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

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

How much will you need?

Laying 1,500 bricks at a 1:4 mix takes about 13 bags of 25 kg cement and 1.4 tonnes of building sand. Try the mortar calculator

Your questions answered

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.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Runcorn?

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.

Do you deliver cement to trades and homeowners in Runcorn?

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

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.
