cinderblocks?

[sketchyblueeyes]

hey peeps

Does anyone know what they call cinder blocks here in argentina? and where I can obtain some?

cheers!

they are commonly called " Bloque de cemento ( NOT ladrillo hueco). The best prices and consistency is to be had at Easy

they should have them at Blaisten, too, on Juan B Justo. In fact, on Juan B Justo there are several building supply places and one of them will definitely have them, and deliver.

I agree with Easy being the best place for consistent quality. However if you can't get to an Easy, businesses that sell construction supplies, cement, sand, bricks, etc are called "corralón". There are lots of them around the city.

thank you guys! much appreciated

easy has them supplied. corraones are more inclined t buy them from the local gaucho tht feels skimping will make him rich.
Im no fan of easy, but the ones i saw there had good homogeneity
