Bagged Concrete & Mortar Mixes delivered to Gateshead

Bagged mixes are pre-blended dry concrete, mortar or screed that only need water, saving you batching sand, aggregate and cement on site.

We deliver bagged concrete and mortar to sites, driveways and yards across Gateshead, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

Getting bagged concrete and mortar onto your Gateshead site

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load. Gateshead is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

Getting the right bagged concrete and mortar

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.

Post mix quantities

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