Ready Mix Concrete in Lichfield
Good pours are planned, not improvised — and Lichfield's mix of town houses and rural properties rewards planning more than anywhere we go. Send photos of the access; we'll bring the concrete. From 0.5m³.
How We Plan a Lichfield Pour
WS13 and WS14 cover a lot of variety: terraces near the city centre, family homes on the estates, and properties down private drives with a paddock past the gate. The concrete is the easy part — we batch it on site to whatever spec the job needs. The part worth five minutes of your time is the route in, and that's a photo job. Snap the gateway, the drive and anywhere tight, and send them through the photo upload on our quote form. We'll come back with a plan: where the truck stands, how the concrete travels, and a price to match. Our preparing for a concrete delivery guide covers everything worth checking before the day.
What the truck needs, plainly: about 3m of clear width, 4–4.5m of overhead clearance, and ground that takes a heavy lorry — soft ground works with boards or plates down. From where it stands, extension chutes reach around 5m. Beyond that it's barrows for small volumes or a line pump for anything longer — line pumps reach hundreds of metres, which on a Lichfield smallholding is usually the difference between "can't" and "Tuesday".
Domestic and Rural Concrete Across WS13 & WS14
In town, the work is familiar: extension footings in C8/10 GEN1-equivalent (S3, or S4 for trench fill), driveways in air-entrained C25/30 at around 150mm so frost can't scale the surface, shed bases in C16/20 at 100mm. Out past the ring road it leans rural: workshop floors, stable and livestock floors in stronger classes like C28/35, and hardstanding that takes real weight. Everything is supplied as designed mixes batched to the strength and durability requirements of BS 8500 / BS EN 206, with a batch ticket on every load — and if a formal spec requires certified designated concrete, we'll say so rather than fudge it.
Being volumetric, one truck can batch the footing mix and the base mix in a single visit, and you pay the metered volume for each — useful when a rural job is really three small jobs wearing one postcode.
Lichfield Delivery and Prices
Lichfield is Staffordshire, up the A38 from Birmingham — an easy, regular run for us, and the concrete doesn't age a second on the way because it isn't batched until we arrive. Guide prices per cubic metre, +VAT, confirmed when you book: GEN1-equivalent from £99, C20 from £105, C25 from £110. Minimum 0.5m³, no part-load penalty, seven days a week, 7am–5pm.
Measure up, run it through the concrete calculator, and don't agonise over the contingency — the meter only charges for what's poured. Full details of how a pour day runs are on our concrete delivery page, contained washout included.

Lichfield Concrete FAQs
How do I send you photos of my access in Lichfield?
Use the photo upload on our quote form — snap the gateway, the drive and anywhere tight, and send them with your postcode. Two minutes of photos usually replaces a site visit, and it means the truck that arrives is the right plan, first time.
Our house is down a long private drive — can you reach the pour?
In most cases, yes. If the drive gives us roughly 3m of clear width, 4–4.5m of overhead clearance and ground that takes a heavy lorry, the truck comes to the pour. If it doesn't, a line pump carries concrete hundreds of metres from wherever the truck can safely stand. Soft ground is workable with boards or plates — just tell us in advance.
Do you charge more to deliver to Lichfield?
Our per-m³ guide prices are the same across our whole coverage area — WS13 and WS14 included. Every quote is confirmed when you book, once we know the access and timing, and it's itemised so you can see exactly what you're paying for.
What concrete suits a rural workshop or stable floor near Lichfield?
An unreinforced workshop base takes C16/20 at around 150mm for vehicle use. Floors for stables and livestock go stronger — classes like C28/35 and above, supplied as designed mixes batched to BS 8500 / BS EN 206. Tell us what stands on the floor and we'll recommend honestly; if a formal spec requires certified designated concrete, we'll say so.
What's the minimum concrete order in WS13/WS14?
0.5m³, no part-load penalty. The truck batches at your address and bills the metered volume — so a garden project in Lichfield pays for concrete, not for the miles or the empty half of a drum.
