Ready Mix Concrete Cheshunt
Base Concrete is a leading supplier of ready mix concrete across Cheshunt and the wider Lea Valley corridor. Since founding our family business in 2002, we have developed an excellent reputation among homeowners, tradespeople and contractors who require prompt delivery and concrete that performs reliably every time. We serve customers throughout Cheshunt, Waltham Cross, Waltham Abbey, Broxbourne, Hoddesdon, Goffs Oak, Flamstead End and surrounding areas.
Our concrete is delivered using volumetric mixer lorries, a modern method that sets us apart from traditional suppliers. These specialist vehicles transport cement, aggregates and water in separate compartments, blending them fresh at your property just moments before pouring begins. This ensures the concrete reaches your formwork at peak workability and will cure to its maximum specified strength. Because we mix on demand, you pay only for the concrete that is actually dispensed, with no waste and no unnecessary expense.
Reach out to our approachable team to discuss your project requirements. We will assist with calculating quantities, explain the delivery process and ensure everything is arranged for an efficient pour. Cheshunt customers regularly praise us for leaving their properties in excellent condition 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:
What Fresh On-Site Mixing Means for Cheshunt Customers
Benefits of Volumetric Concrete Delivery
Opting for volumetric delivery from Base Concrete provides real advantages that conventional supply methods cannot replicate.
Pay Solely for Concrete Poured
Traditional drum deliveries charge for the complete load whether you need all of it or not. Our volumetric mixers blend concrete as it is dispensed, stopping when your formwork is full. Your invoice reflects only the concrete that enters your project.
Fresh Concrete Performs Better
Workability declines from the instant concrete is mixed. By producing it at your Cheshunt location rather than at a remote batching plant, we supply a product that flows easily, compacts thoroughly and achieves its intended compressive strength.
Capacity for Any Project Scale
Our lorries handle anything from a fraction of a cubic metre for a modest garden task to continuous loads for a major commercial slab. No project is too minor and no scheme too ambitious.
Adjust the Mix Seamlessly
When different areas of your project call for different concrete grades, our operators modify the recipe between pours without returning to base or arranging follow-up deliveries.

Experienced Family Suppliers Committed to Excellence
Why Choose Base Concrete in Cheshunt?
Choosing Base Concrete for your Cheshunt project means working with a company that places quality and customer satisfaction at the forefront.
Built on Family Values
We are a family-run business where every customer receives personal attention. Our team takes time to understand your requirements and provides practical guidance informed by more than two decades of hands-on experience.
Quality Assured to British Standards
All our concrete conforms to British Standard BS8500-2 and originates from QSRMC accredited sources. Regular cube testing at independent laboratories verifies compressive strength, giving you documented confidence in the product you receive.
Professional 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. Cheshunt customers often highlight this level of care in their reviews.
Fleet Suited to Urban and Suburban Sites
Cheshunt encompasses busy roads, residential estates and properties backing onto the Lea Valley. Our fleet includes mini mix lorries, no bigger than a typical skip truck, that navigate tighter streets and access properties where larger vehicles cannot reach.
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 6m by 3m at 100mm (0.1m) deep requires 1.8 cubic metres. Our team will gladly verify your figures before you confirm an order.
When can I walk or drive on freshly poured concrete?
Light foot traffic is typically safe after 24 to 48 hours under normal conditions. Vehicles should stay 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 describe different products.
Do you deliver small quantities to Cheshunt?
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 needs.
How quickly can you deliver to Cheshunt?
Cheshunt is accessible from our Hemel Hempstead base via the A10 and M25. Subject to availability, we can often arrange delivery at short notice. For larger projects or specific time slots, booking ahead secures your preferred date.
