Volumetric Concrete in Manchester
Volumetric concrete mixed on-site across Manchester and Greater Manchester — pay only for what you pour, same-day where we can.
Trusted by contractors, councils & developers
Volumetric concrete delivered across Manchester and the M area · nearest depot: Warrington depot (Warrington, WA3)
Manchester is a major Procon 24/7 patch — volumetric concrete right across the M postcodes, from the city centre, Ancoats, Spinningfields and the universities to Hulme, Moss Side, Didsbury, Cheetham Hill, Openshaw and the MediaCityUK, Eastlands and NOMA regeneration areas.
The city's high-rise build-to-rent boom, tight inner-city streets and basement pours keep our concrete line pumps busy — we pump into tower-block sites, podium decks, courtyards and back gardens — and volumetric mixing means no waste on the small footings. We pour foundations and oversite slabs, raft and basement pours, driveways, factory and warehouse floors, plant bases, and groundworks for the housing, student and commercial schemes across the city. Manchester is a quick run from our Warrington depot via the M62 and M60; same-day delivery is usually available — call 0161 258 7732.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Ask away!
What is volumetric concrete?
Volumetric concrete is mixed on your site by a mobile mixer that carries the raw materials separately. It is batched fresh at the point of pour, so you get exactly the grade and the volume you need, with nothing pre-mixed.
How is it different from a ready-mix drum wagon?
A drum wagon arrives pre-mixed — you pay for the whole load and race a 90-minute clock. Our volumetric truck mixes as you pour, so you pay only for what you use, there are no part-load charges, and there is no time pressure.
Do I really only pay for what I pour?
Yes. The truck meters every cubic metre mixed. If your job needs less than expected you simply stop — no full-load minimum and no charge for concrete you did not use.
Can I get more than one mix on a single delivery?
Yes. Because the materials are mixed on site, one truck can switch between grades and mixes on the same visit — handy when a job needs, say, a footing mix and a floor mix.
What concrete grade do I need?
Driveways and paths usually take C25, structural slabs and footings C30, commercial and heavy-duty work C35–C40. Tell us the job on the quote form and we will specify it for you.
Do you supply rapid-set concrete?
Yes — our URS (Ultra Rapid Set) mix reaches working strength in around two hours, ideal for time-critical work like rail, highways and out-of-hours jobs. Ask for it when you request a quote.
