Ready Mix & Masonry
Build a Solid Structure with Ready Mix Concrete from a Local Nova Scotia Company
READY MIX CONCRETE
Ready mix concrete in Nova Scotia is a mixture of sand, stone, cement and water. The cement and water combine together to make a paste that binds everything together and becomes the foundation of the concrete's strength. Many people often confuse the words concrete and cement. Cement is the powder used to make the concrete. Concrete is the finished product of the paste and aggregate
Because it is durable, economical and has the ability to take many forms, concrete is one of the world's most used construction materials. From underground to the top of high rise buildings, ready mix concrete can be found most everywhere. The most common uses are house foundations, bridges, driveways, high rise buildings and much, much more.
