We are a key supplier of ready mixed concrete for commercial and domestic customers around Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, Coventry, Birmingham, Tamworth, Burton upon Trent, Coalville, Swadlincote, Nuneaton, Loughborough and throughout the Midlands region. Our professional and reliable ready-mix service delivers concrete to your specification; it’s mixed on site using our volumetric mixer, meaning you only pay for what you lay, with no waste and no hidden charges.
Volumetric concrete is a type of concrete that is mixed on-site rather than in a central batch plant. It provides the flexibility to produce the exact amount of concrete needed, eliminating waste and saving costs.
Volumetric concrete reduces waste as it allows for precise measurement of the amount needed for a job. It also ensures the concrete is fresh and at its optimal strength upon delivery.
Yes, we provide volumetric concrete and pumping services for both residential and commercial projects. We can handle everything from home foundations to large-scale commercial developments.
Cost is determined by various factors such as the volume of concrete required, the complexity of the pumping job, and travel distance.
A concrete pumping service uses specialized machines to transport concrete to specific locations, even hard-to-reach areas. It increases efficiency and safety on construction sites.
A concrete pump works by using hydraulic and pneumatic systems to move concrete from a mixing truck to the application site. It can pump concrete vertically and horizontally, making it ideal for high-rise and long-distance projects.
Almost all concrete projects can benefit from pumping services, particularly those that are difficult to reach with traditional methods. This includes high-rise buildings, long-distance infrastructures, and projects with tight spaces or obstacles.
We operate across the Midlands region of the UK.
You can schedule a delivery or pumping service by contacting us via our online form, email, or phone. We recommend scheduling at least a few days in advance to ensure availability.
With volumetric concrete, this is not a concern as we mix the exact amount of concrete you need on-site. If you require more or less than initially estimated, we can adjust accordingly.
Drying time can vary depending on environmental conditions and the specific type of concrete mix used. On average, it takes about 24-48 hours for concrete to dry enough to support weight, but it can take up to 28 days to fully cure and reach its maximum strength.
Our team is trained to follow strict safety procedures, including regular equipment inspections, keeping the site clear of unnecessary personnel during pumping, and ensuring proper setup and operation of the pump.
Yes, we are fully licensed and insured to operate in our service areas. We adhere to all local and national regulations regarding concrete delivery and pumping.
Your site should be cleared of any debris, and a firm, level base should be prepared. Any necessary forms or reinforcements should be installed prior to our arrival. If you need additional guidance on site preparation, our team is happy to assist.
After the concrete is poured, it will need to be smoothed and finished as desired. It should also be properly cured to ensure optimal strength and durability. Our team can provide specific instructions based on your project’s requirements.
