What is Sharp Sand?

Sharp sand, also known as grit sand, river sand or builders’ sand is a gritty sand with a coarse grain. Typically the particles are quite sharp and angular in shape.

As Sharp Sand is mainly mined from inland areas away from the coast it does not contain salts that would otherwise allow it to absorb atmospheric moisture and this makes it ideal for use in the building trade where moisture and damp issues need to be avoided.

What is Sharp Sand Used For?

Due to its versatility, Sharp Sand is a good garden all-rounder. Ideal for screeds, renders or concrete acting as a binding agent, Sharp Sand can also be used when laying slabs or block paving.

Alternatively, Sharp Sand can be utilised to top dress lawns or sprinkled and forked in to peat and compost for root cuttings and propagating cuttings, as it can improve the soil’s overall drainage.
