Cement: choosing well

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.

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

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.

Cement is the binder. Concrete is cement mixed with sand, aggregate and water.
