Ready Mix for Mickleham Backyards and Business Parks

Mickleham jobs come in every size. One day it’s a clothesline pad behind a townhouse with a one-metre side gate. The next it’s a slab for a new home or a hardstand in the business park off Donnybrook Road. We batch in Broadford and plan each delivery around how the concrete will actually reach the pour.

Grab a tape measure before you book. Check the narrowest point between the house and the fence, including meter boxes, downpipes and hot water units that stick out. Look up as well. Low eaves and overhead power lines can rule out a pump boom and change how the concrete gets in.

Then think about the street. Mickleham’s newer estates have narrow roads and cars parked on both sides, so tell us where the truck can stand without blocking a neighbour. Protect the nature strip and footpath too. Hume City Council may require an asset protection permit for building work, so check before your pour day if you’re unsure.

Warehouse floors and hardstands are a different job from a backyard slab. You’re often looking at many truckloads in one session, so spacing matters. Trucks that arrive too close together sit and wait, and trucks that arrive too far apart leave cold joints. We agree on a start time and a spacing interval with your site supervisor before the day, then dispatch to that plan.

Send through the engineer’s specification early, especially if the slab calls for a particular grade, admixture or finish. On the morning, a quick call from site to confirm the first truck saves a lot of guessing. Commercial accounts and repeat bookings are welcome. Ask our team about setting one up.
