Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions
  • Can I see the concrete before I start offloading?

    You can not see into the concrete mixer drum but our drivers will be happy to run a small amount of concrete down the lorry shoot so you can have a quick look at the consistency. Please be mindful this is only possible if you are offloading the truck as a 'straight tip' into an area or you place a wheelbarrow under the shoot to catch the test concrete. Read our how-to on the day of delivery for more information. 

  • Will someone come and install the concrete for me?

    No, we only provide the pre-mixed concrete to you on our mixer truck. The offload and laying of the concrete would be down to you. You may already have a builder for this or may need to hire someone. Alternatively, you may decide to do the work yourself with help from friends or family. If this is the case please look at our How to guides for assistance and please thoroughly read and watch our concrete Health & Safety information.

  • I require further assistance ?

    Should you have any queries relating to our online ordering site please Call Us, or Contact Us via the website. You can also talk to us using the online Live Chat option. 

  • What tools will I need to lay concrete?

    Before you start your project, please read the How to guides to ensure you are fully prepared with everything you need for the job. If you are unsure of anything, please contact us and one of our team will be happy to help where they can.

  • How do I know if the truck mixer will be able to get to where I need it?

    For truck dimensions, please visit our truck dimensions page. This will help you to decide whether our vehicle will safely fit onto your site. If the truck appears too big for your job, don't worry, there are other options for offloading your concrete, such as via a concrete pump, which we can discuss with you.  

  • Will you deliver 24 hours a day?

    Our normal delivery hours are between 07:00 - 17:00, Monday to Friday & 07:00 - 12:00 on Saturdays (subject to delivery area). You will be able to request a time slot when placing your order, and we endeavour to meet that time slot, although we do usually require a minimum of 24-48 hours notice for delivery. Often we can do same day deliveries, should you require this service please contact us and our sales team will do their very best to make this happen for you. Equally, please feel free to chat online to a member of our team. 

  • How long before the concrete goes off?

    The chemical reaction that takes place within a concrete mix begins as soon as the cement and water are mixed together. This means that dependant on the travel time from our concrete plant to your delivery location, usually you will have between 1 – 2 hours once the concrete arrives on your job to place, level, compact and finish the mix. Higher strength mixes will generally give a little less working time than lower grades. Please ensure you have enough people to complete your project on time. We do offer high performance products which gain early high strengths, when faster strength gains are required. If you’re unsure about any of this information please refer to our How to guides or contact us.

  • How long does a refund take to clear?

    A refund will be made to the payment card that was initially used to make the purchase, usually within 3-5 business days of being initiated. For any questions please contact us

  • What are the hazards of wet concrete?

    Exposure to wet concrete can result in skin irritation or even first, second- or third-degree chemical burns. It is important to always wear full PPE. If your skin comes into contact with wet concrete wash with water immediately and seek medical advice. Read our H&S guidance for further support.

  • What precautions should I take when handling concrete?

    • Wear the correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
    • Use the right tools to meet the needs of the job
    • Employ the correct techniques when laying
    • Have a washing station nearby
    • Wear additional PPE
    • Exercise caution around mixing equipment ensuring space available
    • Communicate with your team about the safety measures expected
    • Always stay aware of your surroundings and others

Watch our Health and Safety video

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)

Wearing the right clothing to handle concrete is highly important and essential for your safety. You may be refused on site without the correct PPE with you. Minimum levels of correct PPE should be worn by everyone involved in the laying of the concrete delivery.

MINIMUM PPE:

  • Waterproof boots
  • Trousers
  • Gloves
  • Long sleeve top
  • Safety glasses

 

All should be worn to prevent any splashes getting on to the skin, face or eyes.

DO NOT WEAR SHORTS, SHORT SLEEVED TOPS OR OPEN SHOES LIKE FLIP FLOPS
