Ready Mix Concrete Edgware
Base Concrete provides outstanding ready mix concrete across Edgware and the wider North London area. Since founding our family business in 2002, we have developed lasting relationships with homeowners, tradespeople and contractors who value straightforward service and concrete that consistently delivers results. We serve customers throughout Edgware, Burnt Oak, Colindale, Mill Hill, Stanmore, Canons Park, Queensbury and surrounding neighbourhoods.
Our concrete arrives via volumetric mixer lorries, which represent a significant step forward from traditional delivery methods. These specialist vehicles transport cement, aggregates and water in separate compartments, combining them fresh at your property just moments before pouring. This ensures the concrete reaches your formwork at optimum workability and will cure to its full design strength. Because we mix to order, you pay only for concrete that is actually dispensed, with no waste and no unnecessary expense.
Reach out to our helpful team to discuss your project in detail. We will assist with quantity calculations, explain the process and make certain everything is prepared for an efficient pour. Edgware customers regularly tell us how pleased they are that we leave their properties clean and tidy once the job is complete.

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 Benefits Edgware Customers
Benefits of Volumetric Concrete Delivery
Choosing volumetric delivery from Base Concrete provides real advantages that conventional supply methods cannot replicate.
Pay Strictly for What You Use
Traditional drum deliveries charge for the full load regardless of actual consumption. Our volumetric mixers produce concrete on demand, ceasing when your pour is finished. Every pound you pay contributes to concrete in your project.
Fresh Concrete Performs Better
Workability declines from the instant concrete is mixed. By blending it at your Edgware location rather than at a remote batching plant, we supply a product that flows easily, compacts thoroughly and achieves its specified compressive strength.
Flexibility for Any Project Scale
Our lorries produce anything from a fraction of a cubic metre for a minor repair to continuous loads for a major commercial pour. No job is too modest and no scheme too ambitious.
Change Specifications Mid-Job
When separate areas of your project require different concrete grades, our operators adjust the recipe between pours without returning to base or arranging additional deliveries.

A Dependable Family Supplier Committed to Excellence
Why Choose Base Concrete in Edgware?
Selecting Base Concrete for your Edgware project means working with a company that places quality and customer care at the forefront.
Grounded in Family Values
We are a family-run company that treats each customer as an individual. Our team takes time to understand your needs and provides practical guidance informed by more than 20 years of hands-on experience.
Certified Quality You Can Trust
All our concrete conforms to British Standard BS8500-2 and comes from QSRMC accredited sources. Regular cube testing at independent laboratories verifies compressive strength, providing documented assurance that the product performs as specified.
Careful Crews, Clean Sites
Our drivers and pump operators recognise they are guests on your property. They protect driveways and surfaces, contain spillages and leave sites spotless. Edgware customers often highlight this level of care in their reviews.
Vehicles Built for Busy Suburbs
Edgware features a mix of main roads, residential streets and narrower side roads. Our fleet includes mini mix lorries, no bigger than a typical skip truck, that manoeuvre comfortably through tighter spaces and access properties with limited room.
How do I work out how much concrete my project needs?
Calculate the volume in cubic metres by multiplying length by width by depth, with all measurements in metres. A driveway section of 5m by 3m at 100mm (0.1m) deep requires 1.5 cubic metres. Our team will happily check your figures before you confirm an order.
When is it safe to walk or drive on new concrete?
Light foot traffic is typically fine after 24 to 48 hours under normal weather conditions. Vehicles should remain 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.
What is the difference between cement and concrete?
Cement is a powdered binding ingredient. Concrete is the composite material produced when cement is combined with water, sand and aggregates like gravel or crushed stone. Although the terms are often swapped, they refer to different products.
Do you deliver small amounts to Edgware?
Absolutely. Volumetric mixing suits smaller orders perfectly because we produce only what you pour. There is no minimum load penalty, and you will never be pressured to take more than your project requires.
How quickly can you deliver to Edgware?
Edgware is readily accessible from our Hemel Hempstead base via the M1 and A41. Subject to availability, we can often arrange delivery at short notice. For larger projects or specific time slots, booking ahead secures your preferred date.
