All In Ballast - 25Kg Bags - Pack Of 2

While it depends on the project's load requirements, a standard mix is typically 1 part cement to 6 parts ballast.

This is a structural ballast, so the stones are not selected for color uniformity. It is better suited for sub-bases or utility concrete.

Yield depends on your water and cement ratios, but 50kg of ballast is typically sufficient for small to medium repair tasks or smaller shed bases.

The ballast itself is just sand and stone; it becomes a structural component of waterproof concrete only after being correctly mixed with cement and allowed to cure.

It is recommended to store them in a dry place. If kept outside, cover them with a tarp to prevent rain from saturating the contents.

Gradually add small amounts of water while mixing until the desired consistency is reached, taking care not to make it too sloppy.

Because this is a natural product, color variation is normal. Try to blend the contents of different bags during the mixing process to minimize visual disparities.

Always use proper lifting techniques by bending at the knees and keeping the bag close to your body to prevent strain.
