If kept dry, portland cement will retain its quality indefinitely. However, bagged cement that's stored for long periods in a dry atmosphere can develop what's called warehouse pack, a mechanical compaction that makes the cement lumpy. This can usually be corrected by rolling the bags on the floor to break up the lumps.
Try telling Mikeey84 that Willy!
These will probably be out of date, so I would advise caution if using for critical work. Should be fine for paving slabs or garden work
Who would have thought :/ ... learn something new everyday thank you
are these in date?
If you’re not going to use it straight away you can freeze it.
Is it used or new?
It's used, they chipped it out of the brickwork and rebagged it.
Is this a best-before date or a use-by date? I'm looking for a gluten-free alternative for making cakes and this should do the trick.
Ok for rock cakes
Anyone know if there’s any in any other stores by any chance around West Midlands? I appreciate it depends on if there is stock going out it date.
Just thought I’d ask if anyone else has spotted any?
Hinckley had 2 pallets of this last week. It is hopefully a sign that supply is now outstripping demand and we can all get back to some sensible pricing on building materials!
Out of date ???
Had used many a bag well out of date, but at this price no brainer if used now. (edited)
Hundredweight bags in my day.... guess these young uns nowadays couldn't handle that. Get off my lawn.
Agreed. You could pay with a Guinea and get seven and six in change. These modern kids with their fancy decimal. They'll be abandoning the furlong and the fathoms next.
Bargain of the day!!!!
stonking deal, definitely a hard deal to miss.
Can just see all the local mafiosa running down to stock up on this right now.
