Course River Sand

Coarse river sand is commonly used in gardening and landscaping for a variety of purposes. Its large particles provide excellent drainage, making it ideal for mixing with potting soil, compost, or garden beds to increase soil porosity and improve soil structure.

It is also helpful in preventing soil compaction, which can limit plant growth. Furthermore, coarse river sand can be used as a decorative element in landscaping, such as in pathways or on top of decorative stones, adding a natural look to the garden. It can also be used in construction projects such as creating a stable base for patios, walkways, and retaining walls. Overall, coarse river sand is a versatile material with many benefits for both the functionality and aesthetics of a garden or landscaping project.

Plasterers Sand

Plasterers sand, also known as sharp sand, is a type of sand that has a coarse texture and is commonly used in construction applications where a finer sand would not be suitable.

One of the primary uses of plasterers sand is to create a mix for plastering walls and ceilings. The coarse texture of this type of sand allows for better adhesion of the plaster mix to the surface being plastered, resulting in a more durable finish. Plasterers sand is also commonly used in the construction of concrete and masonry work, as the coarser grains help to provide better bond strength between the cement and the aggregate. Its permeability and drainage qualities make it an ideal choice for use in landscaping projects, such as a base layer for pavers and other outdoor features.

Brickies Loam

Brickies loam is a type of clay soil that is widely used in construction for making mortar and wall plaster. The high plasticity and water retention properties of brickies loam make it an ideal building material as it allows for easy mixing and moulding, providing a strong and durable finish to buildings. Brickies loam is also a good insulating material, which helps maintain a comfortable temperature inside the building, reducing the need for temperature regulation systems.

Being organic in nature, brickies loam is environmentally friendly and can be sourced locally, making it a sustainable and cost-effective material for construction. Overall, brickies loam is a versatile and reliable material that is widely used in construction applications due to its many benefits.

White Sand

Fine white sand is a versatile material that can be used in several ways in gardening and landscaping. It can be used as a decorative element and be spread evenly over garden paths or as a base for water features and dry garden beds.

It is an important component in creating sand pits for children in gardens and public parks. Sand pits, often made with fine white sand, provide kids with a fun and safe play area. It can be used in potting mix to improve soil drainage and aeration or as a top layer for lawns to improve drainage and soil health. 

Fill Sand

Fill sand is often used in garden and landscaping projects to help level and stabilise the ground. It is a coarse sand that is typically mixed with topsoil or other additives to create a balanced soil mix that promotes healthy plant growth.

In addition to levelling, fill sand can also help improve drainage and prevent water from pooling in low areas of the lawn or garden.

When used in landscaping, fill sand may be used to create a base for retaining walls or to level out areas for pathways or patio construction. It is important to note that fill sand should not be used in areas where plant roots will be present as it can inhibit growth and cause nutrient deficiencies.

10mm Concrete Blend

10mm concrete blend is a versatile and durable material that has numerous uses in construction and landscaping.

It can be used for creating paths, driveways, and patio areas. It is ideal for creating a smooth, uniform surface that is both durable and attractive. In addition, 10mm concrete blend is perfect for constructing retaining walls, garden curbs, and other landscaping features. It is strong enough to hold back soil and can be used to create raised garden beds. The material is also suitable for constructing outdoor steps, ramps, and wheelchair access paths.

10mm concrete blend is a vital material for any construction or landscaping project that requires durability, strength, and aesthetic appeal.
