What Is Ready Mixed Concrete?

A standard ready mix concrete, sometimes called “redi-mix concrete,” is a mixture of a few materials:

  • Sand and/or gravel (the aggregates)

  • Portland cement

  • Water

  • Other chemical and/or mineral additives

Spragues’ specializes in creating ready mix concrete types that can be used in all applications, whether for decorative or structural purposes.

Decorative

We can design a ready mix concrete to be used as an architectural accent to your home, improving its aesthetic with a durable solution. SRM Concrete can create concrete that mimics the color of brick, wood, natural stones, and more.

Structural

Ready mix concrete, with its durability and strength, is a natural choice in construction. Also, we create concrete that can be used in all other applications, including:

  • New home construction

  • Room additions

  • Parking lots

  • Patios

  • Driveways

  • Roadways

  • Foundations

  • Grouts

What You Can Do With Our Ready-Mix Concrete

Don’t limit yourself to simple, poured concrete. With the right contractor, you can use concrete to create natural-looking waterfalls, antique stone patios, or even shining wood floors!

  • Stained concrete creates a look all its own—beautiful colors that bring out the natural roughness and unique look of concrete. Stained concrete can also be combined with stamping to create beautiful textures and patterns like cobblestone or flagstone.

Professional contractors use special molds to imprint a specific pattern or texture into poured concrete, creating a cobblestone effect or even sandstone or planks.

This type of concrete can vary, depending on the look the customer wants. Exposed aggregate, a type of washed finish, exposes the rock underneath the surface to give the concrete a rugged, textured look. Read more about washed concrete.
