  • Base Concrete

    Meadow View 2, Three Fields Felden Hemel Hempstead, Hemel Hempstead, HP3 0BJ, GB

    Your Personal Concrete Company Offering Unrivalled Customer Service We pride ourselves on offering an unrivalled customer service from start to finish. Here at Base Concrete, we specialise in ready-mixed concrete for commercial and DIY customers alike in Watford, Welwyn, Stevenage, Hemel Hempstead, Luton, St.Albans, Aylesbury and all surrounding areas of North London. Through several tweaks in our functioning, we have streamlined our workflow to provide you with the most hassle-free experience out there. This has helped us in garnering a reputation second to none. From highest quality concrete to its efficient supply at the construction site, trust us to simply deliver!We pride ourselves on having helpful and friendly staff, and always aim to leave your site clean and tidy, which you don’t always find in our industry. We can offer small lorries (the same size as a 6 yard skip lorry), these lorries can carry up to 4.5m. Also 8m size lorries for larger amounts and when you have better access. Now we also can offer volumetric mix onsite lorries, or for when you have bad access we can offer our concrete line pumps.Our concrete pumps are becoming increasingly popular as they can be the answer to bad access and also save on labour costs and speed up progress of the project. We have line pumps (that run pipes along the ground) or our 24m boom pump (this has a crane arm that can be elevated). We can deliver a wide variety of concrete mixes from a shed base to water proof concrete. The process that they use is to make you aware of how much concrete is in the line that they have laid out, we make sure that we stop pumping when there is just enough room left in your site to take what is left in our hopper and the pipeline, when the hopper is almost empty, the operator will blow a ball by air pressure through the pipeline into your site so as to push all of the concrete into the site after this there will be about 2 wheelbarrows left in the hopper that can be wheeled into your site so there is almost no waste or mess at all.

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

Find answers to common questions about excavation contractors and hiring excavation professionals in the UK.

What are the risks associated with excavation?

Excavation, while essential for many projects, involves inherent risks, including:
  • Trench Collapses: Unstable trench walls can cave in, posing a severe risk to workers. Proper shoring and sloping are crucial safety measures.
  • Utility Damage: Striking underground utilities (gas, water, electric) can cause leaks, explosions, or electrocution. Accurate utility locates and careful digging are essential.
  • Falling Objects: Materials or equipment falling into excavations can injure workers. Securing work areas and using appropriate safety gear is vital.
  • Equipment Accidents: Operating heavy machinery involves risks of rollovers, collisions, or mechanical failures. Trained operators and proper equipment maintenance are critical.
  • Environmental Hazards: Excavated soil might contain hazardous materials (asbestos, lead). Proper testing and disposal procedures are necessary.
Reputable excavation contractors prioritize safety and have protocols to mitigate these risks.

How do I find a good excavation contractor?

Finding a reputable excavation contractor involves careful research and consideration. Look for the following qualities:
  • Experience: Choose contractors with a proven track record and years of experience in excavation projects similar to yours.
  • Licensing and Insurance: Verify that they are properly licensed to operate in your area and carry adequate insurance to protect you from liability in case of accidents or damage.
  • Equipment and Resources: Ensure they have the necessary equipment and resources to handle your project efficiently and safely.
  • Positive Reviews and References: Check online reviews and testimonials from previous customers. Request references and contact them to inquire about their experience with the contractor.
  • Professionalism: Opt for a company that communicates clearly, provides detailed and transparent estimates, and has a responsive and courteous team.
Online directories like ExcavationHQ can simplify the process by allowing you to compare qualified excavation contractors in your area.

What is the difference between topsoil and subsoil?

Topsoil and subsoil are distinct soil layers with different properties:
Topsoil: The uppermost layer, typically rich in organic matter, nutrients, and microorganisms. It's essential for plant growth and is often darker in color.
Subsoil: The layer beneath the topsoil, containing less organic matter and generally denser. It provides support for roots but is less fertile than topsoil.
During excavation, topsoil is often removed and preserved separately for later use in landscaping, while subsoil is typically used for backfilling or other less demanding applications.

What equipment is used for excavation?

Excavation projects employ various heavy equipment, chosen based on the job's scale and complexity. Common equipment includes:
  • Excavators: Versatile machines with a bucket, arm, and rotating cab for digging, lifting, and moving earth.
  • Backhoes: Similar to excavators but with a digging bucket on the back and a loader bucket on the front, ideal for trenching and smaller excavations.
  • Bulldozers: Powerful machines with a large blade for pushing earth, clearing land, and leveling surfaces.
  • Skid Steers: Compact and maneuverable loaders with various attachments (buckets, forks) for digging, loading, and grading in tight spaces.
  • Trenchers: Specialized machines for digging narrow trenches for utilities.
  • Dump Trucks: Vehicles for hauling excavated material to disposal sites.
The choice of equipment depends on factors such as the type of excavation, soil conditions, site accessibility, and project budget.
