Ready Mix Concrete High Wycombe
Base Concrete supplies exceptional ready mix concrete throughout High Wycombe and the South Buckinghamshire region. Our family business began trading in 2002, and over the years we have earned the confidence of homeowners, contractors and developers who demand punctual delivery and concrete that consistently performs. We cover High Wycombe, Loudwater, Hazlemere, Beaconsfield, Marlow, Flackwell Heath, Downley and surrounding areas.
Our approach to concrete delivery uses modern volumetric mixer lorries. These vehicles carry cement, aggregates and water in separate compartments, mixing them fresh at your property the instant they are required. The concrete entering your formwork is therefore only moments old, ensuring outstanding workability and maximum cured strength. This system also guarantees you pay exclusively for concrete dispensed, not for a fixed drum load that may exceed your needs.
Call our helpful team to discuss your project in detail. We will guide you through quantities, answer your questions and make certain everything is arranged for a trouble-free pour. High Wycombe customers regularly comment on how clean we leave their sites, a courtesy we extend to every job.

Ready Mix Concrete
Finding the Right Mix for Your Job
Concrete Grades We Supply
Our volumetric mixers can produce any concrete grade on site to match your project requirements. Here are the most common commercial mixes we supply:
Why On-Site Mixing Works Better for High Wycombe Projects
Benefits of Volumetric Concrete Delivery
Choosing volumetric delivery from Base Concrete provides meaningful advantages over older supply methods.
Invoice Only for Concrete Used
Standard drum deliveries charge for the complete load whether you need all of it or not. Our volumetric mixers blend concrete on demand, ceasing when your formwork is full. Every pound you pay goes towards concrete in your project.
Concrete in Optimum Condition
Workability starts declining from the moment concrete is mixed. By producing it fresh at your High Wycombe location rather than at a remote plant, we supply a product that pours smoothly, compacts effectively and cures to its intended strength.
Suitable for Every Project Size
Our equipment handles everything from less than a cubic metre for a minor domestic job to continuous loads for a major commercial slab. No project is too modest and no scheme too extensive.
Adjust the Recipe Instantly
When different parts of your job require different concrete grades, our operators modify the mix between pours. There is no need to arrange a second delivery or wait for another lorry.

Experienced Family Suppliers Committed to Getting It Right
Why Choose Base Concrete in Amersham?
Selecting Base Concrete for your High Wycombe project means partnering with a company that takes pride in every delivery.
Family Company, Professional Delivery
We are a family-run business where customers matter. Our team invests time understanding your requirements and offers candid advice informed by more than two decades of practical experience.
Quality Verified by Independent Testing
All our concrete conforms to British Standard BS8500-2 and originates from QSRMC accredited production. Regular cube testing at approved laboratories confirms compressive strength, providing documented confidence in the product you receive.
Careful Crews, Clean Sites
Our drivers and pump operators recognise they are working on your property. They protect surfaces, manage spillages and tidy up before leaving. High Wycombe customers frequently mention this level of care in their feedback.
Fleet Ready for Hillside Streets
High Wycombe’s topography includes steep roads and properties reached via narrow lanes. Our fleet features mini mix lorries, no larger than a skip truck, that handle gradients and tight turns comfortably.
How do I calculate how much concrete my project needs?
Multiply length by width by depth, with all measurements in metres, to get the volume in cubic metres. A base of 5m by 4m at 150mm (0.15m) deep requires 3 cubic metres. Our team will gladly verify your figures before you confirm an order.
When is it safe to walk or drive on freshly poured concrete?
Light foot traffic is generally fine after 24 to 48 hours in normal weather. Keep vehicles off driveways for at least seven days to avoid surface damage. Concrete reaches full design strength at approximately 28 days, so patience during curing improves long-term durability.
Are cement and concrete the same thing?
No. Cement is a powdered binding agent and just one ingredient in concrete. Concrete is the composite material produced when cement is combined with water, sand and aggregates such as gravel or crushed stone. The terms are often confused, but they describe different products.
Can I order a small quantity for a minor job in High Wycombe?
Certainly. Volumetric mixing suits smaller orders perfectly because we produce only what you pour. There is no minimum load penalty, and you will never be pushed to take more than your project requires.
How quickly can you deliver to High Wycombe?
High Wycombe is accessible from our Hemel Hempstead base via the M25 and M40. Subject to availability, we can often arrange delivery at short notice. For larger projects or specific time slots, booking ahead secures your preferred date.
