Ready Mix Concrete in Redditch
New-town estates generate exactly the jobs volumetric supply is built for — garage bases, drive replacements, garden rooms — small, metered pours where a drum truck’s minimum load would double the bill.
Bases, Drives and Garden Rooms on the New-Town Estates
Winyates, Matchborough, Church Hill, Woodrow, Batchley — Redditch’s new-town districts are now at the age where the original drives, garage floors and paths are being replaced, and gardens are gaining rooms. Drives take an air-entrained C25/30 — the PAV1-equivalent — at around 150mm; garage and shed bases a C16/20 at 100mm; garden-room slabs much the same, sized with a margin for the over-dig.
These are small pours — one to three cubic metres, mostly — and that’s the point. A drum supplier hauling a fixed load treats a 1.5m³ garage base as a nuisance and prices it like one. We batch on site from 0.5m³ with no part-load penalty: mini mix is half of what we do, not an exception.
Extensions from Headless Cross to Moons Moat
Around the older core — Headless Cross, St George’s, Smallwood — the work looks more like the rest of the West Midlands: rear extensions on Victorian and Edwardian stock. Unreinforced strips in normal ground take a C8/10 GEN1-equivalent at S3; trench fill the same strength at S4; reinforced designs step up to C25/30. Every load leaves a batch ticket recording mix, consistence and metered volume — the detail is on our foundations page.
And Redditch works for a living: the estates at Moons Moat, Park Farm and Washford take C35–C40 yard and unit slabs, scheduled around operating businesses. Our commercial supply page covers repeat pours, designed mixes and the paperwork.

Redditch Concrete FAQs
Do you cover all of Redditch?
Yes — B97 and B98, from the town centre through the new-town districts to Webheath and Headless Cross, down the A441 or off the M42. For the fringe — Astwood Bank, Studley, Feckenham — call and ask; the answer is usually yes.
What do I need for a garage or shed base in Redditch?
A C16/20 at around 100mm does a domestic garage or shed base; step up to C25/30 if it'll carry a vehicle or heavy machinery. A typical single-garage base is about 1.5–2m³ — comfortably above our 0.5m³ minimum and exactly the size drum suppliers penalise with part-load fees. We don't have any.
Our cul-de-sac is tight and the drive is shared — can you still pour?
Usually, yes. The truck needs about 3m of clear width and ground that takes a heavy lorry; extension chutes reach around 5m, and beyond that we barrow or pump. New-town estates are full of tight turnings and shared drives — tell us about the way in when you book, or send a photo, and we'll plan it before the day.
What's your minimum load in Redditch?
0.5m³, metered on site, no part-load penalty. You pay for what actually leaves the chute.
