Volumetric concrete mixed on site in Sittingbourne

The industrial and light commercial estates north and east of the town generate the pours this service is for. Make-up and levelling around existing slabs, void filling, plant and machinery base work where the excavation changes the number, and jobs where one visit has to produce a lean fill and a stronger mix.

The domestic side contributes the smaller version on the newer estates and, much more awkwardly, in the older streets around Milton Regis where the quantity is uncertain and the access is tight at the same time. Most of our approved suppliers work on a pay-for-what-you-use basis.

A vehicle that stays, on a site that books by the slot

On the estates the road was never the constraint. The gate is: an induction, a permit, a nominated route and a booked slot. Volumetric changes what that slot has to be, because the vehicle does not arrive, discharge and leave. It positions and produces for as long as the pour takes.

So the slot is booked for the session, the induction has to cover a vehicle that will be static for a while, and the standing position needs the ordinary checks a site manager will ask about anyway: firm ground, room to position, clearance to work the discharge auger, and what runs underneath.

In the older streets around Milton Regis the vehicle is usually too big for the address, and the honest alternative is mini-mix managing the quantity load by load. If your pour needs a specific designation, ask for it to be confirmed and recorded on the delivery ticket, whichever route it takes.

Setting up a Sittingbourne volumetric pour

Send the permit and induction requirements, what you are pouring, your best estimate, and where the vehicle could stand for the session. 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.
