A pumped concrete base in Wilmslow
We pumped a concrete base in Wilmslow — using our pump to reach a spot the wagon couldn’t get to and place the mix exactly where it was needed.
volumetric mixed fresh on site to the right grade and pumped straight into position.
Wilmslow’s larger gardens frequently put the job well beyond a wagon’s reach — past the house, down a path and round the back. We run the pump line the whole way through to place the base exactly where it’s needed, with no barrowing.

The ground beneath Wilmslow
Wilmslow gives its name to the Wilmslow Sandstone Formation — this is the type area for that soft, weakly-cemented red sandstone of the Sherwood Sandstone Group. Glacial sand, gravel and till overlie it, with alluvium along the Bollin. Because the sandstone is friable, it can be soft and can “run” or ravel below the water table in an open excavation.

Flood risk in Wilmslow
The River Bollin runs through Wilmslow (Rivers Street, Cliff Road, the Bollin Link), and it’s a named EA flood-warning area. The low ground along the Bollin is where the flood risk sits.
If your plot is on the low-lying ground, a Flood Risk Assessment may set a raised floor level and flood-resilient construction — a solid, low-permeability slab over continuous tanking. We pour the specified concrete to suit; the FRA and floor levels come from your designer and building control, not from us.
See flood risk & concrete for what’s required. Check the specific address on the EA flood map for planning — only the low-lying/valley-floor part of the area is affected, not the whole town. General guidance only.
Why Barrow Mix?
We run our own quarry, wagons and pumps — a genuinely self-sufficient supplier, so we’re not waiting on anyone else to get your concrete to site. See why that matters →
