Bagged Concrete & Mortar Mixes for Newmarket, delivered to site

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

SK Trade prices bagged concrete and mortar delivered to Newmarket and the rest of Suffolk, so the cost and the delivery date are agreed before anything is loaded.

How delivery works in Newmarket

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

  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

Before you order bagged concrete and mortar

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.

A quick quantity check

Setting 10 fence posts in Newmarket usually takes 10 to 20 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

Your questions answered

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Newmarket?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

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

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 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.
