Delivery
At The Paving Experts, we understand the need to get your materials to site – quickly, efficiently, and at a great price. Our aim is to keep our product prices low and delivery prices fair. You won’t find us wrapping up delivery charges within our product prices so that we can offer you free delivery. Our delivery prices are fully transparent, and based on the weight, dimensions and how quickly you need your goods.
So, if you only want one bag of Flowpoint, or a few tubs of EasyJoint, we’ll wrap these carefully and send them via a courier as they usually get delivered faster! However, if you want six items or more, we’ll generally send this out on a pallet via our courier.
Sometimes you may need your order urgently. Other times you may be happy to wait a few days. That is why we offer two levels of delivery method: A Premium Express* 1-2 Working Day Delivery service or our cost-effective 3–5 Working Day Standard Delivery. Select the appropriate delivery rate at checkout.

*We do hate to let our customers down! But, it’s the busiest time of year on the roads for delivery vehicles and couriers, and whilst we aim to get your orders to you as quickly as possible, once they have left our depot we are in their hands and we cannot 100% guarantee delivery pre-Christmas, sometimes there are issues outside of our control. To ensure that your items are delivered before Christmas, please ensure you leave plenty of time. As a small, family run business – who always put their customers 1st, your understanding is always appreciated. Thank you. For any problems email: orders@thepavingexperts.co.uk – our phone lines won’t be monitored, but our emails will be checked across the Xmas period.

The Paving Experts telephone lines will be closed for the Christmas & New Year Holidays from 1.00pm on Monday 23rd December 2024, until 9am Thursday 2nd January 2025.

*Premium Express delivery
Premium Express delivery is generally an extra £15-20 (exclusions apply).
If a Premium Express Delivery order is placed before midday Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays), the order is dispatched on the same day.
If the order is placed after midday or on a non-working day, the order is dispatched on the next working day.
However, this service is NOT guaranteed and the order can take up to 48 hours (1-2 working days) to arrive. For example, an order placed on a Friday before midday would be despatched the same day for delivery on Monday.
Bespoke delivery options
You’ll notice that some of our products have their own set price for delivery. This is because a few products are outsized and take up more room on the courier than their weight category. Please call us if you have a query.
We do also offer bespoke delivery options for larger orders or where your site has unique delivery requirements. We can also get an order to you on a Saturday if you need us too. Feel free to drop us a line for a price. We’re always happy to help.
Free deliveries
For any free deliveries quoted on our website, these will be delivered kerbside on a 26 tonne vehicle with tail-lift, in our Standard 3–5 Working Day Delivery Service, and for mainland England and Wales only. For all other delivery destinations these will incur a delivery charge. See our shipping prices for Scotland or contact us for confirmation.
Full pallet orders
Any full pallet orders sent may incur an additional charge if they have to be split down across two pallets to go on a 7.5 tonne vehicle with a tail-lift. Please call us for details and enquiries.
Returns policy
For returns, cancel up to 14 days from date of delivery. Product must be returned in the same condition and packaging. No returns for cementitious, bitumen, tarmac or perishable products or tools that have been removed from their packaging.
