Ballast – 10mm

The Versatile “All-In-One” Solution for Concrete and Foundations When your project requires a strong, reliable, and smooth-mixing concrete, our 10mm Ballast is the professional’s choice. This “all-in-one” aggregate is a precise blend of sharp sand and small 10mm shingle (gravel), designed to take the guesswork out of mixing. By providing the two primary bulk components in a single, pre-blended mix, it streamlines your workflow while ensuring a consistent, high-quality result every time. Why Choose 10mm Over Larger Ballast? While 20mm ballast is often used for heavy-duty structural footings, our 10mm variety is preferred for applications where a more refined finish is required. The smaller stone size allows the concrete to be worked into tighter spaces and creates a smoother surface once leveled—making it ideal for domestic landscaping and decorative garden structures. Key Features & Benefits: Ultimate Convenience: Because the sharp sand and 10mm gravel are already combined, you only need to add cement and water to create a versatile concrete mix. High Compaction & Stability: The blend of fine sand and small stones fills voids effectively, creating a dense, solid mass that provides excellent resistance to shifting. Smoother Surface Finish: The 10mm shingle results in a finer texture compared to larger aggregates, which is easier to trowel and finish for visible surfaces. Reliable Strength: Perfectly suited for a variety of load-bearing domestic projects, from garden walls to heavy-duty fence posts.
