How delivery works in Ryde

Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Ryde needs a ferry crossing, so deliveries are quoted individually with the crossing included.

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

Getting the right cement

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.

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.

Cement in Ryde: questions

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.

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.

Do you deliver cement to trades and homeowners in Ryde?

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

How soon can cement be delivered in Ryde?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
