Bagged Concrete & Mortar Mixes: choosing well

Post mix quantities

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

Check the yield

Each bag states the volume it makes. Divide your volume by the yield to get the number of bags.

Quantities: a worked example

Setting 12 fence posts in Borehamwood usually takes 12 to 24 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

Bagged Concrete & Mortar Mixes in Borehamwood: questions

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

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

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 soon can bagged concrete and mortar be delivered in Borehamwood?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

How much does one bag of concrete make?

The yield is on the bag. As a rough guide a 20 to 25 kg bag makes about 0.01 cubic metres of concrete.
