About Ready Mixed Concrete St Albans
Leading volumetric concrete, floor screed, and pump hire specialist serving residential extensions, commercial groundworks, and infrastructure developments across Hertfordshire.
Ready Mixed Concrete St Albans is dedicated to revolutionizing how concrete is batched and delivered. By replacing outdated drum mixing with cutting-edge mobile volumetric batching technology, we provide unmatched flexibility, zero material waste, and complete price transparency for every client.
Our Core Mission: Exact Quantities, Zero Waste & Structural Excellence
Traditional drum barrel mixers require contractors and homeowners to guess exact cubic metre requirements upfront. If you order slightly too little, cold joints ruin the pour; if you order too much, you pay for surplus concrete and face steep disposal penalties.
Our mobile volumetric mixers eliminate this risk entirely. By carrying raw materials dry and mixing only the precise volume required directly into your trenches or pump hopper, we ensure you pay exclusively for what is laid.
Advanced Volumetric Technology
Each mobile unit functions as an on-demand batch plant, transporting CEM I/II cement, graded aggregates, sharp sand, and clean water in dedicated dry bins. Digital flow meters calibrate each batch to BS EN 206 standards with exact water-cement ratios.
Environmental Sustainability
Because unused materials remain dry inside the vehicle compartments, zero wet concrete is sent to landfill. Unmixed dry raw materials simply return to our depot for future pours, significantly reducing project carbon footprint.
Industry Standards & Safety Accreditations
We adhere strictly to British and European construction codes, maintaining comprehensive safety standards across our fleet and site operations:
