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.

Working in cold weather

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

Getting cement onto your Stroud site

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

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • With roughly 7h 47m of daylight in Stroud around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
