Sand Aggregates Delivered

Sand is a naturally occurring granular material composed of finely crushed rock and mineral particles. As a result of this the composition and colour is determined by the local rock source and ground conditions. We source our products from different quarries throughout Yorkshire and can therefore deliver a broad range suitable for a number of functions. These include paving or block laying, bedding cables or pipes, adding strength to mortar, sub soils and specialist surfaces.

  • Building Sand

    Building Sand

    Our building sand or often referred as river sand is a fine 0/2mm soft sand used for block or brick laying and general mortar applications. Due to its consistency it delivers a smooth and workable texture, which when combined with cement it creates high-quality mortar with strong bonding properties. We source our builders sand from three regional deposits, providing us with red, yellow, and mission grey sand. Once dried the mixture will set as a plain grey colour, regardless of the original colour.
