Product Description
Pit Sand
Fine, soft Pit Sand – also known as yellow building sand – is a natural aggregate product which has numerous uses.
Pit Sand can be used for bricklaying, when mixed with cement and mortar, or indeed any general building purpose, including pointing and internal rendering.
It is also used “as is” as a filler and for levelling sites, and is useful for establishing a bed for pond lining and similar applications. Many of our customers also use it for animal bedding, or to add a fun element to the garden in a kiddies’ sand play pit.
Please note that being a natural product, yellow building sand is not necessarily yellow – the colour may vary but the quality and consistency remains constant.
Whatever you need pit sand for, you can conveniently buy it online here from Keynsham Timber, and we’ll deliver it to anywhere in Bristol, Keynsham, Bath or the surrounding area. Alternatively, you can use our handy “click and collect” ordering service, and come and pick it up yourself from our Keynsham depot.
If you have any queries about our Yellow Building Sand, or any of the other aggregates we have in stock, please get in touch on 0117 986 4359 or email to info@keynshamtimber.co.uk.

Postcrete 20kg
£5.95 (inc. Vat)Whether you’re a DIY-er or a professional it’s a sure bet that the hardest part of putting up a fence is getting those concrete, metal or wooden fence posts secured strongly in their post-holes. They need to be concreted in, which means mixing, fixing and leaving to set with the pole supported upright in position – a laborious and long-winded process. Thank goodness you can now order a wonder product here online that will have your fence posts firmly grounded in around 10 minutes – with no mixing needed.
Keynsham Timber & Hardware stocks 20kg bags of Postcrete – a pre-mixed, ready to use and very quick-setting blend of selected sand, cement and aggregates formulated especially for fixing upright wooden, concrete and metal posts. This useful formulation is perfect for erecting poles to support anything from fenceposts to rotary wash lines and children’s swing sets.
The best thing about Postcrete is that all you need do is dig a hole to the right depth, drop in a post, fill the hole up to about a third with water and then pour in the Postcrete evenly around the post on top of the water. Use a plumb line and spirit level to ensure the post in a perfect upright position, adjust it carefully if necessary. After five to ten minutes the concrete will have hardened enough to hold the post in place without support, and it should be fully set after 20 or 30 minutes.
We offer next day delivery on online orders of Postcrete, which comes in weatherproof plastic packaging. Alternatively you can opt to “click and collect” from our Keynsham depot.
Postcrete meets BES 6001 certification for responsible sourcing. You will require 2 bags of Postcrete 20kg per fence post.
