Bagged Concrete & Mortar Mixes delivered in Berkshire towns

Quantities: a worked example

Setting 15 fence posts in Berkshire usually takes 15 to 30 bags of 20 kg post mix, depending on the hole size printed on the bag. For a base bigger than about half a cubic metre, all-in ballast and cement are usually better value. Compare with site-mixed concrete

Planning the drop in Berkshire

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Berkshire.

  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Choosing bagged concrete and mortar

Post mix quantities

Most makers say how many bags per post; it depends on the hole size.

Bagged or site-mixed?

Bagged mixes cost more per cubic metre but save time, waste and space. For anything bigger than a small pad, site-mixed or ready-mixed concrete is usually better value.

Common questions from Berkshire

When should I use ready-mixed concrete instead?

Once you need more than about half a cubic metre, mixing from bags gets slow and costly; ballast and cement or ready-mixed concrete usually make more sense.

How many bags of post mix per post?

Usually one or two 20 kg bags per standard fence post, depending on the hole size. The bag will state the recommended amount.

Can you deliver bagged concrete and mortar to a site with restricted access in Berkshire?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Do you deliver bagged concrete and mortar to trades and homeowners in Berkshire?

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