Getting the right cement

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

Before your Wimbledon delivery arrives

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

• With roughly 7h 50m of daylight in Wimbledon around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• On busy streets in Wimbledon, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
