How delivery works

We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.

Delivery areas

Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.

If your address is in one of these areas, we will contact you before processing your order to confirm any additional costs. We do not currently offer delivery outside the UK mainland.

What to expect on delivery day

  • Deliveries are typically kerbside.
  • Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
  • Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.

Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery

Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.

Returns

Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.

Soft building sand supplied in a 25kg bag, consisting of fine-textured natural aggregate with clay content. 

This manageable bag size is ideal for patch repairs, smaller mortar mixes, or topping up bulk supply.

Features & Benefits

  • Fine soft-grained sand: Produces smooth, workable mortar mixes for bricklaying and rendering.
  • Contains natural clay particles: Enhances mortar cohesion and bond strength.
  • Warm natural colour (varies by source): Provides a neat, uniform finish in mortar joints.
  • Mixes easily with cement and water: Creates consistent mortars for pointing, brickwork, or repairs.
  • Versatile use: Suitable for rendering, bricklaying, pointing, and general construction tasks.
  • Convenient bag size (25kg): Easy to carry, store, and tip manually without machinery.
  • Low waste option: Order only the amount needed, reducing surplus on smaller projects.


Please Note: Colour may vary naturally depending on source. Bag weight may differ by ±5% due to moisture content. Not intended as a decorative sand.

Applications

  • Bricklaying mortar: Suitable for small garden walls, features, or repair work.
  • Pointing: Provides smooth, workable mortar for patching joints and touch-up work.
  • Internal rendering: Useful for small areas or repair coats without requiring bulk supply.
  • Topping up bulk bags: Complements larger orders where only a little extra sand is needed.

Installation Guidance

  • Mix with cement and water: Produces consistent, workable mortars for bricklaying and rendering.
  • Handle manually: 25kg bags can be carried and tipped without lifting equipment.
  • Prepare small batches: Mix only what is needed to avoid waste and ensure mortar is used within its workable timeframe.

Compliance & Performance

  • Aggregate grading: Fine sand with natural clay content, screened for consistency in mortars and renders.
  • Service class: Suitable for internal and external small-scale building applications.
