Before you order 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.

Estimating your bagged concrete and mortar

Setting 20 fence posts in Northampton usually takes 20 to 40 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

Getting bagged concrete and mortar onto your Northampton site

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

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • With roughly 7h 42m of daylight in Northampton around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Yes. We deliver across Northampton, including NN1, NN2, NN5, NN4. Northampton is inside our standard mainland delivery area. Send your list or call 0800 088 6341 and we will price it delivered to your postcode.

How much does one bag of concrete make?

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

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.
