Frequently Asked Questions
What is washed building sand used for?
Builders use washed building sand to mix mortar for bricklaying and blockwork. Its fine texture and low impurity content help create smooth, workable mixes for construction projects and repair work.
What’s the difference between building sand and sharp sand?
Builder sand has finer, softer grains, making it suitable for mortar mixing and brickwork, focusing on strength and stability. Sharp sand is coarser and grittier, which makes it better suited for concreting, paving, and landscaping projects.
Is this suitable for small DIY jobs?
Yes. The 20kg bag size is ideal for smaller projects, repairs, or where space and ease of handling are important.
