Ready-mix concrete for slabs in Snodland

The Victorian terraces built for the old cement and paper industry sit on narrow plots, and the slabs that follow are correspondingly small: rear yard slabs, shed and store bases, path and step pours, and internal slabs where a ground floor is being taken up and replaced.

At Holborough the riverside estate is a different job. Modern plots take garden room and patio bases at ordinary domestic scale, on ground with room around it. Alongside both there is modest commercial slab work on premises inherited from the town’s industrial past.

Access, discharge and how far the chute reaches in Snodland

A slab is a single continuous placement, so the vehicle has to hold one position for the whole pour, and in Snodland the position depends on the route.

On the terraced streets, carriageways are narrow and parked on both sides, so there are few legal places for a large vehicle to stand and discharge, and a rear yard is behind the house rather than beside it. The chute reaches the pavement and not much else. Mini-mix gets the discharge point closer, and a line pump run through the property puts the slab in as one placement rather than as a barrow chain that risks a joint through the middle of it.

At Holborough the modern streets take a full mixer without difficulty and the question becomes distance across the plot rather than access to it.
