Product details
River sand is the fine aggregate behind almost every mortar and plaster on a Kenyan site. Washed river sand is free-draining, low in silt and organic matter, and gives mortar a smooth, workable consistency that fundis prefer for rendering and block laying.
Use it for plaster mortar (typically 1:4 to 1:6 cement:sand), block-laying mortar, screeds and fine-aggregate concrete. For structural concrete it is usually blended with ballast; for smooth plaster it can be sieved on site for an even finer finish.
Buying sand by the tonne on Sasa Purerise means transparent pricing and tracked delivery to your plot — no haggling at the river bank, and your payment stays in escrow until the sand is actually tipped at your gate.
