Setting 15 fence posts in Gainsborough 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

Post mix quantities

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

Bagged Concrete & Mortar Mixes in Gainsborough: questions

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.

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

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

Is bagged concrete strong enough for a shed base?

For a small base it can be. Follow the bag's guidance on depth and the shed maker's base requirements.

How soon can bagged concrete and mortar be delivered in Gainsborough?

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.
