    Concrete Floors

    What concrete a floor needs depends on whether it is ground-bearing or suspended, and on what will run across it. Kent Readymix delivers ready-mix concrete for floors across Kent and Medway, from garage and extension floors to workshop, agricultural and warehouse slabs.

    Volumetric / On-Site Mixed Concrete

    A volumetric mixer carries cement, aggregate, sand and water in separate compartments and combines them on site, so the concrete is made at the point of use rather than at a plant. Kent Readymix arranges volumetric concrete across Kent and Medway, and most of our approved suppliers work on a pay-for-what-you-use basis.

    Mini-Mix Delivery

    Concrete Columns

    Concrete for a column is specified by a structural engineer, never chosen on site, because the column carries load from everything above it. Kent Readymix supplies ready-mix concrete for columns across Kent and Medway to the designation, consistence and aggregate size on your drawings.

    General Domestic and Commercial Projects

    Plenty of concrete pours are not a slab, a footing or a driveway, and they still need the right mix and the right quantity. Kent Readymix supplies ready-mix concrete for domestic and commercial projects across Kent and Medway, from garden work and post bases to yards, plinths and void fill.

    Concrete Pumping

    A concrete pump moves concrete from where a mixer can stand to where the concrete is actually needed, through a pipeline or a boom. Kent Readymix arranges concrete pumping across Kent and Medway for pours that a chute cannot reach, and the pump and the concrete are booked together.

Local coverage, county-wide reach

Areas We Cover Across Kent and Medway

Ready-mix concrete is arranged across Kent and the Medway towns, from Dartford and Swanley in the west to Dover, Deal and the Thanet coast in the east. Each town page sets out what concrete is usually going into locally and what an approved supplier needs to know about getting a vehicle to the work, because access decides more about a delivery than anything else on the order.

Why Choose Us

Why Order Ready-Mix Concrete Through Kent Readymix

  • One Batch, One Consistent Strength

    Ready-mix concrete arrives already mixed to a single specification, so the whole pour goes in at one strength from one batch. Concrete mixed on site in a barrow mixer varies across the area and leaves a cold joint wherever one batch met the next.

  • You Describe the Pour Once

    Set out what you are pouring, roughly how much, where a vehicle can stand and when you want it. That description goes to the approved supplier appointed to the job, rather than being repeated down a list of numbers.

  • The Mix Specified Before It Is Ordered

    Concrete is ordered by designation under BS 8500, not by description. A shed base, a driveway and a structural slab take different mixes, and the designation is settled with your approved supplier in advance rather than argued about on the day.

  • Access Settled Before Delivery Day

    How the concrete reaches the work is the question worth answering first: what can legally stand in the street, how far the chute reaches, and whether a pump or a smaller vehicle is the honest answer. Describe the access and it is planned rather than discovered.

  • Volume Planned Rather Than Guessed

    Where a volume is genuinely uncertain until the ground is open, a volumetric mixer makes the concrete on site and most of our approved suppliers work on a pay-for-what-you-use basis. Where the figure is known, a standard load is usually the simpler answer.

  • Every Pour Type Across Kent and Medway

    Slabs and floors, footings and foundations, driveways, columns and walls, volumetric and mini-mix loads, and pumping where a vehicle cannot reach the work. Domestic and commercial, across Kent and the Medway towns.

How Ordering Ready-Mix Concrete Through Kent Readymix Works

Describe what you are pouring, roughly how much, and where a vehicle could stand. That description goes to one approved supplier working in your part of the county, who comes back on the mix, the volume and the delivery window.

For commercial customers on an agreed contract, delivery within hours is sometimes possible depending on location and availability. Your quotation, delivery and payment are agreed directly with the approved supplier appointed to your pour.

Your Concrete Delivery Questions Answered

There is no fixed minimum, but very small slab pours are often better served by mini-mix delivery than a full-size lorry. Kent Readymix takes the slab dimensions with the enquiry and an approved supplier will confirm the smallest load they can send, or suggest mini-mix where a full lorry would be poor value for a small area.

There is no set minimum, but a very small footing, such as a single post base, may be better suited to mini-mix delivery than a full lorry load. Kent Readymix passes the trench dimensions to an approved supplier, who will confirm whether a standard load, a part load or mini-mix is the right fit for the quantity involved.

It depends on the width of the approach, whether there is anywhere to pass, and whether the lorry has room to stand while it discharges. Kent Readymix takes the access detail with the enquiry, and where a full-size vehicle will not fit comfortably, mini-mix delivery or a concrete pump is used instead so the right vehicle arrives first time.

The terms are often used interchangeably, but a floor usually refers to concrete poured inside the walls of an existing or new structure, such as a garage, workshop or warehouse, while a slab often describes a standalone outdoor base with no building around it. Kent Readymix treats both as the same core product, ready-mix concrete matched to what will sit on it, whichever word you use.

Not necessarily, because volumetric is priced on what is actually mixed and used rather than on a fixed load size, which can work out cheaper on a job where the volume is uncertain. A large, well-defined pour is often more economical as a standard delivery instead. Your approved supplier will quote against the pour you describe rather than assuming one method is always cheaper.

Mini-mix earns its place on small jobs, such as a shed base, gatepost or garden wall footing, and on any job where a full-size lorry simply cannot get to where the concrete is needed. Size and access are the two triggers, and either one on its own is often enough. Describe the job and the approach to us and an approved supplier will confirm which delivery suits it.

No, small jobs such as a hot tub base, a set of gate posts or a garden wall footing are exactly the kind of work this service covers, alongside larger commercial pours. Where a job is genuinely tiny, mini-mix delivery is often the better fit than a full lorry load. Tell us what you are building and we will say which delivery suits it.

No, plenty of pours manage with a standard chute or mini-mix delivery, and a pump earns its place specifically where the distance, height or an obstacle between the vehicle and the pour rules those out. A continuous pour such as a raft or a large floor is another common reason to choose one. Tell us the site and we will say whether a pump is genuinely needed.
