Frequently asked questions
Concrete quantities, like any other measure of volume, are calculated by multiplying length x width x height and are measured in cubic metres.
We can deliver any quantity of concrete, but the minimum charge is for 1m³.
On the day, nearer to the time, you will receive a call to let you know when your concrete is on its way.
We can deliver any amount from 1m³, if you require a larger amount, we can schedule more vehicles for the concrete required.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you can provide safe and reasonable access for the concrete mixer. If you want the lorry to come off road, onto a footpath or private property, we cannot be held responsible for damage caused and you may be asked to sign an indemnity form at the time of delivery.
Please check with the driver that the order is correct and advise the driver where the concrete is to be unloaded.

This means that usually you will have between 1-2 hours once the concrete arrives on your job to place, level, compact and finish the mix.
Higher strength mixes will generally give a little less working time than lower grades.
Please ensure you have enough people to complete your project on time.
Depending on the concrete mixer that is sent out to you. will depend if there is a part load or waste concrete disposal charge. If a volumetric vehicle is used there are no part load charges or unused concrete charges.
Please be aware that the rate for concrete could change if you use more or less than ordered. Please be extra careful when measuring your area so we give you an accurate price.
As we use volumetric vehicles we are more flexible, if you need a little more than concrete then ordered it’s not a problem whilst we are on site.
