Ready-mix concrete for slabs in Deal

In the Middle Street conservation area and along the Georgian seafront the slabs are small and tightly enclosed: courtyard bases, small garden slabs, outbuilding and store bases squeezed behind a protected frontage, and internal slabs where a period floor is being taken up and replaced.

At Sholden, Mongeham and the former colliery housing at Mill Hill the same service is an entirely ordinary job. Plots are larger, garden rooms and garages are the usual subject, and areas are the size the calculation on the county page assumes.

Access, discharge and how far the chute reaches in Deal

A slab has to go in as one continuous placement, so the whole area needs to be within reach of something for the length of the pour.

In the conservation core, the streets are narrow, several are one-way, and conservation-area constraints limit where a vehicle stands and for how long. A courtyard behind a Georgian frontage is usually beyond a chute and sometimes beyond a barrow route that a person can use repeatedly. The seafront adds a limit that is absolute rather than difficult: the frontage is shingle and there is no vehicular access on the beach side, so nothing approaches from that direction at all.

On the estates none of this applies. A full mixer stands at the kerb, the chute reaches a good part of a rear garden slab across an ordinary plot, and the remaining distance is a barrow run of a kind anyone would expect.

That is why the first useful sentence in a Deal enquiry is the postcode-free one: conservation area or estate.
