Concrete driveways in Canterbury

If you own or manage property on the Sturry side or the southern fringes of Canterbury, or you let student and shared housing that needs hard parking it was never built with, this is the driveway work the city actually generates. Kent Readymix arranges ready-mix concrete for driveways across Canterbury.

Fringe drives, landlord parking and campus surfacing

The newer housing at Sturry and on the southern fringes generates the ordinary driveway order book: new drives, replacements, widenings and garage aprons on plots with room to work and a road that takes a mixer.

Canterbury adds a second buyer that most towns do not. The large student and house-in-multiple-occupation stock produces a steady demand for hard parking and bin and cycle standing at properties never designed for it, and a good deal of that work sits on frontages where the permitted development and surface water rules on impermeable surfacing decide the design before the concrete does.

The campuses order the commercial version, service and access surfacing on managed sites.

Why the walled centre is not a driveway market

It is worth being direct rather than implying coverage that means nothing. Inside the walls the timed, bollarded pedestrian zone, the medieval lanes and the conservation constraints mean there is very little private frontage to pour and very little chance of standing a mixer on it. Where something does come up it is a small courtyard or threshold pour, and it is a mini-mix or line pump job planned around the loading window rather than a driveway in any normal sense.

Outside the walls the ordinary rules apply. The vehicle stands at the kerb, the drive is discharged from the road and worked back from the far end, and the only question left is whether that far end sits beyond a chute. On a fringe plot with a garage at the rear it usually does, and a barrow run or a line pump covers it.

Placing a Canterbury driveway order

Say whether the address is on the fringes, on a campus or inside the walls, and send the drive dimensions and depth. Your quotation, delivery and payment are agreed directly with the approved supplier appointed to your pour.

Send the detail to hello@kentreadymix.co.uk and an approved supplier will confirm the mix, the volume and the delivery window.
