Choosing tools and site safety gear
Cement burns
Wet cement can burn skin. Wear waterproof, chemical-resistant gloves (EN ISO 374) and long sleeves, and wash it off quickly.
Dust from cutting
Cutting masonry and concrete produces silica dust. Use water suppression or extraction and suitable respiratory protection, as HSE guidance sets out.
Estimating your tools and site safety gear
Kitting out a crew of 5 means 5 sets each of eye protection, gloves suited to the task, a hard hat and hi-vis, plus respiratory protection for anyone cutting masonry.
Delivery to Durham: what helps
Tools and PPE travel with the rest of your order. Durham is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
