Things to check before you order
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.
Planning the drop in St Neots
Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. St Neots is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
Sizing your order
Laying 3,000 bricks at a 1:4 mix takes about 26 bags of 25 kg cement and 2.81 tonnes of building sand. Try the mortar calculator
