About this Area

About Ramsgate

A chute is the fixed arm that runs concrete off the back of a mixer, and it only reaches so far in a straight line. In Ramsgate that limit matters, because a basement area or a front light well at the pavement edge sits directly between the vehicle and the building. Kent Readymix arranges ready-mix concrete across Ramsgate with that gap accounted for.

Cliff-top terraces and the harbour side

Ramsgate’s domestic stock is Regency and early Victorian, arranged in cliff-top terraces and crescents. Much of it has a basement storey with an open area and a light well at the front. The concrete work that follows is basement and lower-ground floor pours, structural bases, rear yard slabs and reinstatement inside buildings under conversion.

The other Ramsgate is commercial: the Royal Harbour and the industrial land on the Manston side, where the pours are floors, yards and hardstandings on ground that suits plant.

Basement areas, light wells and steep ramps

The specific access fact here is the gap at the front of the terrace. Where a property has a basement area, the concrete cannot simply be run off the back of a lorry into the building, because there is a void between the two. A chute does not cross it and a barrow needs a route round it.

That makes Ramsgate one of the clearest pumping cases anywhere in Kent for domestic work. A line pump crosses the gap, goes over railings, and puts the concrete where the chute cannot reach.

The second constraint is gradient. The ramps down to the Royal Harbour are steep, and the cliff-top crescents are narrow, so a standing position has to be assessed for slope as well as for width and parking.
