Full list of all mixes

C2 – C6 / Foamed Concrete

Typical applications

  • Filling unwanted voids & disused structures
  • Structural stabilization
  • Trench fill
  • Insulating fill

Further details

Foam concrete is a versatile building material that is relatively inexpensive. Levelling and compaction is not required which significantly reduces labour requirement. Due to the nature of foam concrete it remains in a workable state for up to 3hrs and can often be surfaced within 24hrs, which make it a popular choice for utilities contractors for trench reinstatement.

C10 / Gen 1

Typical applications

  • Mass concrete fill
  • Drainage works
  • Pad foundations
  • Blinding

Further details

Extremely versatile mix used throughout the construction industry for general housing applications. It can be used for pad foundations and non-structural mass concrete in non-aggressive ground conditions.

C25

Typical applications

  • Double storey extensions
  • Floors
  • Footings

Further details

C25 is a standardised mix concrete that is widely versatile and used in numerous commercial and domestic projects.

C30 / PAV1

Typical applications

  • External slabs
  • Driveways
  • Patios
  • Garages
  • Pavements

Further details

Often used with reinforced steel, the minimum cement content in C30 concrete helps to lessen the risk of the steel being attacked by chlorides, thus minimising any chance of corrosion.

PAV 1 mixes have an air entrainment additive to create standard sized air bubbles in concrete. This helps to protect the surface from freeze thaw cycles, making it especially useful for outdoor paving.

RC35 / PAV2

Typical applications

  • Heavy duty use
  • External slabs
  • External paving
  • Agricultural light storage areas

Further details

C35 concrete is a heavy duty use concrete for use with embedded reinforcement. It offers high quality similar to C30, but is much more substantial making it suitable for commercial and industrial use. Common applications include raft foundations, piling and external slabbing and paving that will be subject to the constant loading and scraping imposed by industrial vehicles and machinery.

PAV2 mixes have an air entrainment additive to create standard sized air bubbles in concrete. This helps to protect the surface from freeze-thaw cycles, making it especially useful for outdoor paving.

RC40 / RC45 / RC50

Typical applications

  • Structural beams
  • Agriculture yards
  • External paving for commercial vehicles

Further details

A strong commercial grade concrete mix, most commonly used in the construction of reinforced structural support beams, footings and foundations, road works and in agricultural use.

Floor Screeds

Typical applications

  • Domestic flooring
  • Commercial flooring

Further details

Screed is a thinner layer of concrete material, which is a higher quality for a smoother finish with smaller aggregates. It is laid directly onto a base to obtain a more defined level, support the final floor covering or to provide a wearing surface.

Cement bound sand (CBS)

Typical applications

  • Suitable for all bulk fill projects
  • Filling around underground cables installations
  • Bulk fill into voids
  • Landscaping projects and earthworks
  • Further details

CBS, also known as Stabilised Sand, is cement stabilised sand that has been mixed with a low amount of cement and a small amount of water, so that it sets hard but not as hard as screed or concrete.

Lytag & Lightweight Concrete

Typical applications

  • Structural concrete
  • Precast
  • Fill
  • Blocks
  • Screed
  • Drainage applications
Uses Synthetic lightweight aggregate, more environmentally friendly by reducing density without strength. PFA (Pulverised Fuel Ash) based lightweight aggregate.

I have just had a great experience with this firm who delivered a first class service and I would highly recommend. I had ordered 1.6m of concrete that needed pumping to the bottom of my garden.
They turned up on site when they said they would and the drivers of both mixer and pump were very professional and courteous and finished within two hours, leaving the site very clean and tidy.

Had a concrete with pump delivery on Friday. First class. Operatives were friendly and extremely competent. After their delivery they left the place spotless.
Steve B.
Excellent company to deal with. Called to get an estimate, the lines were busy but the automated messaging said that the company had my number and a representative would call back which they did within half an hour. Rob and Jackie whom I dealt with were very helpful and professional. The concrete prices and pump hire were very reasonable. The day of delivery the truck and pump turned up on time and the operators were very efficient, helpful and professional. Excellent all round service and McHugh’s will definitely be coming back for phase 2.

Family M.
McHugh Concrete provided an amazing level of support for a domestic garden project with some access issues (distance from public road). The office-based support was excellent with clear descriptions of the capabilities of the delivery fleet and what I needed to do. The quotes were very clear and very competitive. On the day, the delivery team were superb, on time, friendly and with a professional work ethic that not only got the job done but provided a novice DIYer with additional advice and comments for the project based on their experience. I’d like to commend the whole team, including Charlie in the pump truck and Rhys the linesman, for an exceptional service and one that I have no reservation at all in recommending to others. Thank you all and your concrete looks amazing!

Great office, lovely people

Recently used McHugh for concrete pumped foundations at my property. Of the three companies I received quotes from McHugh was both the most professional and cheapest. I received a written quote in good time that was clear and well presented. Being a DIY project I had a few questions through my lack of experience. My phone calls into the office were answered immediately and all questions answered. Leading up to the pour I was kept well informed and provided with documentation as to what was required from me. Pump operators Tom and Marcus arrived in good time and couldn’t have been more helpful. Both were very knowledgeable and experienced, even giving me some tips for the next stage of my project. Unfortunately I didn’t catch the office staff and truck driver’s names but all involved ensured a seamless operation from start to finish. Will definitely be calling them back when it’s time to pour the slab!
Response from the owner:Hi Richard, Thankyou so much for your generous words, they are much appreciated. I will let the team know about your comments. Many Thanks, Claire, Rob & Sean.
hayden L.
Excellent service from the phone call to the delivery. Not only the cheapest, you pay for what you use . If you're looking to get the muck in the ground then the pump team is the way yo go . Iam not bothering to call anyone else. Its McHugh all the way..
Response from the owner:Oh that's made our day, what a great review. Thanks Hayden from everyone at McHugh's
PH B.
Top service from estimating off the drawings to keeping you updated on every step of the way. Great new volumetric trucks and pump kept the house and road clean while pumping through. Very professional service and highly recommended.

AM General Building Brighton L.
We have used many different companies in the past and to be honest not all of them had have been as straight forward to work with as this guys. Absolutely brilliant can not fault them from the price to agonising the ground pump. Fab service all round. I don’t think five stars is good enough. After that poring rain yet they went a head with the job and got it done with out complaining once. Amazing service, We didn’t have to make up an excuse for my clients at all. We got the job done. We will defiantly use them again. Thank for a great job last Friday.

Best AM General Building.

Having called every concrete supplier in Sussex McHugh Concrete were not only the cheapest in terms of the concrete and in terms of the ground pump system, but they were the most personable and helpful firm to deal with. The day before delivery the pump driver made a site visit to fully understand the job and ensure we knew what to expect. They arrived early on the day of delivery and worked tirelessly to get the job done and cleaned up in good time. Buy with confidence.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your great review! The McHugh Concrete team

I have worked with McHugh Concrete on a number of projects with each one being serviced as promised. Overall a great service providing quality concrete with no waste or part load charges!
Paul H.
Very pleased with the service provided by McHugh Concrete. Called early morning to book in concrete and a pump for foundations, they arrived hours later. They not only arrived quickly and gave me the exact amount of concrete I wanted, they were also very friendly and worked well with my builders.
