Ready-mix concrete for slabs in Faversham
Why is a slab in Faversham two different jobs? Because a slab in the town goes in behind a medieval frontage on a street with restricted loading, and a slab a mile out goes onto an orchard track where the surface, not the width, is the problem. Kent Readymix arranges ready-mix concrete for slabs across both.

Town slabs and orchard slabs
Around the market place and Abbey Street the slabs are small and enclosed: courtyard and yard bases, internal slabs where a period floor is being replaced, and reinstatement behind protected frontages where the finished level is fixed by the building rather than chosen.
On the creek there are working yards, where slabs are larger and the ground is already used to plant. Beyond the town the fruit farms take hardstandings, wash-down and machinery bases, building floors and gateway pads, and those areas are set by what has to stand on them rather than by a drawing.
Access, discharge and how far the chute reaches in Faversham
In town the constraint is time and position rather than distance. Medieval streets are narrow, loading restrictions are real, and the standing time a vehicle is allowed is short. A slab is a single continuous placement, so the discharge has to be completed inside that window rather than spread across it, which is an argument for a smaller vehicle and a planned single session rather than for opening the job up and hoping.
A mile out the constraint inverts. There is space, and the surface is an orchard track rather than a road. A fully loaded mixer on soft or rutted ground is a recovery job in waiting, so the useful question is where the last hard standing is and whether the final stretch to the slab travels by chute, by dumper or by pump.
★ **The related service this town does not have a local page for.** Where a yard slab or a hardstanding is being poured over ground that has just been dug out and the final area is not settled until you are standing in it, read our county page on volumetric and on-site mixed concrete. Most of our approved suppliers work on a pay-for-what-you-use basis, and orchard pours are the clearest case for it anywhere in Kent.
