Getting Concrete to Site Whenever it Suits You

If you’re managing or overseeing a construction project, you will need concrete to get to your site whenever it suits you. For certain situations, you’ll most likely be working regular hours so a company should be able to deliver concrete to you. However, if you’re working unusual hours on weekends you’ll need to find a delivery that suits these times. You’ll need concrete, whatever the time of day and there’s no use in companies that don’t deliver to you during these times. You may also be thinking about having to transport concrete around site as this can also take up a lot of manpower. If you are concerned about the fact that you will have to assign your own team members after a delivery of concrete you will need to look for a company that offers a dispensation service after delivery. For smaller scale or domestic projects, you’ll also be wanting a company that delivers the exact amount of concrete that you need. Fitting a concrete shed base, for example, will require you to have a specific amount of concrete. If you need more, you’ll need a company that mixes you more on-site rather than having to get more delivered. These aspects are all important and are all included as services that we have to offer.

We deliver on time and adhere to your schedules, so you don’t get left waiting around site for the delivery of the concrete that you need.

Concrete for Domestic Projects

The October edition of our concrete blog, we investigate the various domestic projects you can carry out using a concrete company.

Although concrete can be used for industrial or commercial projects, there is a range of domestic projects where a concrete delivery or concrete service is the perfect way to assist you. Whether you are looking to install a concrete driveway or are looking to implement a concrete shed base, a concrete company can deliver you high-quality concrete to help in the construction of this. A concrete shed base is a great choice for the base of your shed. This provides your shed with a solid and frost proof foundation, giving your shed strength and stability. In comparison to timber, you can store heavy garden machinery on your concrete shed base without the risk of it getting damaged. Your concrete shed base does not rot in wet conditions which is an additional advantage in comparison to timber. Your concrete shed base is also easily cleaned, being able to be sprayed with water to wash away dirt and other annoyances. Should you be looking to install a concrete shed base in Bradford then Spot on Concrete are available to assist you. We can deliver high-quality concrete for use for your shed base. We can even arrange for a concrete pump to be sent to your property should it be difficult to access where you wish to construct your garden shed. We can deliver the precise amount of concrete that you require. Need a little more? No problem! We can provide you with more concrete there and then on-site.

Further Uses of Concrete for Domestic Applications

Another common use of concrete especially in domestic projects are concrete driveways. Many people often look to install or improve their concrete driveway. Perhaps your driveway has become damaged over time or is too rough for you to drive up of and park your car? Should you have a car with low suspension then you may also wish to create a driveway to accommodate for this. This is due to the fact that some driveways can damage the bottom of low suspension vehicles and often makes it impossible for these types of vehicles to even access your driveway. You may not even have a concrete driveway built and you are looking to implement one into your home. Spot on Concrete can assist you with the construction of your concrete driveway. We can deliver high-quality concrete directly to the site for use where you are building your new concrete driveway. No project is too big or too small for our team and we are more than happy to assist you throughout the entire process. We can provide concrete pump hire should it be difficult to access the front of your property and we provide a fully qualified pump operator to assist you with this. We can provide you with the precise amount of concrete so that you are not surprised by hidden costs.

Concrete for Commercial Applications

The November edition of our blog looks at the commercial applications of concrete.

Previously we discussed the domestic applications of concrete, such as creating a concrete driveway or concrete shed base. The commercial applications of concrete are extensive as you can use concrete for a wide range of commercial uses. Concrete can be used to create areas such as the entrances to warehouses, parking spaces and areas all the way to flooring for restaurants, shops and warehouses. Concrete is a fantastic material to use for these applications due to the fact that it is highly durable as well as heat efficient. There’s also different types of concrete that is available for use in these applications. For flooring applications in particular, screed is a fantastic type of concrete to use for these applications. Screed works fantastically well with underfloor heating as well as creating a smooth surface for people to walk on. In terms of more industrial applications, concrete can also resist and handle extreme exertions. These may come from heavy vehicles driving over the concrete or multiple individuals constantly walking over the concrete area. The concrete that can be used for these areas can also be finished with coatings which can increase their slip resistance. The industrial commercial applications of using concrete for your premises are vast and you can always find a great use for concrete for your premises. But how else can the commercial sector really benefit from using concrete services to create or enhance their premises?

The Use of Concrete in the Commercial Sector

Expanding your commercial premises is easily achievable when you are using a concrete service. Expansion could come in many forms, such as building or extending a parking area for your workers. You can even use a concrete service to construct new premises for your business or the foundations for a new building. You will want to use concrete for shop floors and other commercial areas as these areas again will see a fair amount of exertion from shoppers walking across the floors. Older style buildings with timber flooring can see issues such as collapsing floors or damage which is not seen with concrete flooring. Concrete walling is also becoming more and more popular for new commercial buildings due to the speed and efficiency of using concrete as a material for walling. Usually when a commercial building is being constructed, the building needs to be created quickly and effectively, whilst also sticking strictly to budget. This is because you will need to have your new premises created in order to continue to expand your business. With rapid expansion, you will be required to create new working premises but obviously, you will need this space quickly and sticking to budget. Using a concrete pump or delivery service allows you to construct your new premises quickly and effectively. This ensures that you can have a new office or shop built quickly which you will then be able to move into quickly without inconveniencing your workforce.

Industrial Uses of Concrete

The June edition of our article goes into great detail discussing the industrial uses and applications of concrete.

Concrete is the single most used material in the world and this shows how versatile and durable concrete is as a material. This makes concrete a huge material in industrial projects and means that you will most likely need concrete for one of your industrial projects. Mixing concrete on-site at an industrial level can be highly impractical, especially if you require a significant amount of concrete. It’s most likely appropriate that you arrange for the delivery of concrete instead of taking on the task of mixing personally on site. If you are mixing huge amounts then you may also need a concrete plant near-by or a large amount of manpower to constantly be mixing concrete. Ordering concrete with a concrete delivery service takes the hassle out of mixing concrete on-site and ensures that you have high-quality concrete to work with throughout your industrial project. Making sure that you purchase the highest quality concrete possible is also very important as lower quality concrete will lose lower quality aggregates. This could put the structural integrity of the concrete at risk which may put the credibility of work to question and can make buildings that are erected dangerous (as they may collapse.) Spot On Concrete can deliver high-quality concrete for use in your industrial project in Bradford and the surrounding areas. But which industrial projects may be suitable for our concrete delivery service?

Industrial Projects Utilising Ready Mix Concrete

There’s a variety of industrial projects and sectors that use concrete as a main building material. As concrete is a durable material, you tend to see concrete in use in areas such as highways, roads towards industrial areas as well as the industrial building complex and structures themselves. Concrete serves great purposes as an exterior material for a number of structures such as reactors, power plants, carparks, factories, general industrial structures and also foundations for many industrial structures. These projects will also tend to see the use of concrete for the return on investment and the manoeuvrability of concrete before it has set. Industrial projects understandably may have hard to access areas as a construction site may be vast. This is where a concrete pump can be utilised to increase the manoeuvrability of concrete across site. The concrete pump that you choose to hire with Spot On Concrete comes with a fully licensed operator and can transport and dispense concrete across your industrial building site. The pump can be used to reach over buildings and other areas to dispense concrete in areas that may be impossible or very difficult to access by foot. Concrete is not only just limited to the largest of industrial construction projects, it can be used in any project. No project is too big or too small for Spot On Concrete as we have worked with a variety of local and national companies to deliver them the highest quality concrete, on time and directly to schedule. We endeavour to work closely with you and all of our customers to ensure that you have a top quality service.
