⚡ Leading Volumetric Concrete Specialists
About Ready Mixed Concrete Barnet
Leading volumetric concrete, floor screed, and pump hire specialists serving residential, commercial, and civil groundworks developments across Barnet, Hertfordshire, and Greater London.
Our Mission: Precision, Zero Waste & Quality Excellence
Ready Mixed Concrete Barnet was founded to resolve the traditional headaches of ordering concrete: costly under-ordering delays, high excess disposal surcharges, and lost workability during North London traffic jams. By deploying state-of-the-art mobile volumetric batching technology, we deliver bespoke, British Standard certified concrete batched fresh right at your pour location.
Volumetric Mobile Batching vs. Traditional Drum Mixers
Compare the proven advantages of modern on-site volumetric mixing against traditional barrel drum delivery:
| Feature Comparison | Volumetric On-Site Batching (RM Barnet) | Traditional Drum Barrel Mixers |
|---|---|---|
| Hydration & Workability | Mixed fresh on site seconds before discharge. 100% full working time. | Mixed at a remote batching plant; loses slump & workability during transit. |
| Volume Precision | Continuous digital metering. Meter stops exactly when your forms are full. | Fixed volume ordered upfront. High risk of shortage or costly surplus. |
| Financial Risk | Zero return fees. You pay strictly for the cubic metres placed. | Under-ordered concrete incurs part-load charges; excess concrete incurs disposal fees. |
| Mix Adjustability | Slump, strength grade (C10 to C45), and admixtures adjusted instantly on site. | Mix cannot be altered once the drum leaves the batching depot. |
| Environmental Impact | Zero hardened landfill waste; unused dry materials remain available for subsequent orders. | Unused wet concrete hardens and must be dumped in landfill sites. |
