Ready Mix Concrete Prices

If you’re looking for a durable, flexible and attractive building material that’s been trusted for 5,000 years, then look no further than concrete. This traditional material has been around since the ancient Egyptians and offers a huge range of benefits for all kinds of projects in all industries. Here at Wright Minimix, we love concrete and have put together this list of reasons outlining why you should love it too.  

Increases energy efficiency

Concrete boasts the ability to both effectively absorb and retain heat in the winter while reflecting it back during the summer to keep the room cool. As well as keeping the user at an optimal temperature, this also increases the building’s energy efficiency, helping both the environment and potentially reducing the price of your heating bills. 

Concrete is durable

Concrete’s lifespan is two to three times longer than other common building materials, such as wood, thanks to its high resistance to most chemicals, weather conditions and heavy foot and machine traffic. As an added bonus, its non-combustible nature makes it resistant to fire thus increasing a building’s safety dramatically. 

Easy to maintain

Concrete requires virtually zero maintenance as it is such a strong building material. However, to keep it looking at its best, our concrete experts at recommend regular sweeping and quick removal of any spillages. 

Concrete comes in a range of finishes

It often surprises people how many options there are out there for concrete finishes. You can choose from a whole host of different looks that are both attractive, practical and can be adapted to fit the needs of your project. For instance, to create a dramatic sweeping floor for an entrance lobby, concrete can he polished to a smooth finish that is both eye-catching and able to withstand constant foot traffic. 

A highly versatile building material

From concrete blocks and paving stones to foundations and flooring, the uses of concrete are virtually endless due to its initial flowable, liquid state. This means concrete can be moulded and manipulated into any shape on or off site depending on your requirements. At Wrights Minimix, we supply ready mix concrete that has been made by professionals to the exact requirements of your project so you can be sure you’re using the correct type of concrete for its intended purpose.

Whether you think you’ll save time or money, when it comes to mixing concrete, it can be tempting to do it yourself. However, there are many risks associated with DIY concrete so it’s certainly worth considering the many benefits of choosing professional concrete mixes instead. 

Minimise your concrete waste

Suppliers of professional concrete mixes have often worked in the industry for many years so are experts in the amount of concrete you will need for your project. This ensures you don’t waste budget by paying for concrete you won’t use and prevents you from having to deal with disposing of any excess. At Wright Minimix you can use our clever online concrete volume calculator to give you an accurate gauge of how much concrete you will need, and our experts can confirm the volume when you place your order. 

Ensures quality concrete 

Building with the wrong type of concrete can have disastrous and costly consequences, especially if it involves foundations, footings and larger scale projects. Getting the right measurements and consistency is crucial as improperly mixed concrete is more likely to crack, requiring major time and expense to put right. One of the main benefits of choosing professional concrete mixes is the elimination of guesswork and the assurance that the concrete you are using is fit for purpose. 

Save time and effort 

If you do risk making your own concrete, getting the correct mix can take up a lot of your time and effort. You’ll need to research the precise measurements to be sure they’re exactly right for your intended purpose, find a supplier of the ingredients and then ensure you have mixed the concoction to the right texture. Professional concrete mixes on the other hand can be scheduled to arrive on site at the time of your choosing so when you come to need the concrete, you won’t have to wait so you can complete your project faster. 

Professional concrete mixes can come in large Volumes 

Another great benefit of choosing professional concrete mixes is that you can place orders of large amounts that can be delivered to site. At Wrights Minimix we are delighted to be able to supply our customers with professional concrete mixes of various volumes, large or small. We are also proud to have over 45 vehicles in our fleet, from one of the largest concrete pumps in the UK to our very own innovative mini pumps, so we can deliver your concrete straight to where you need it.
