Ready-mix concrete: reach the groundworkers who pour it
A pour is booked for a morning and everything on site is arranged around it, so the groundworker ordering it wants a plant near enough to arrive on time and honest enough to say when it cannot. That is who a listing here puts you in front of: vetted tradespeople pouring foundations, slabs and driveways near you.
List your concrete plantListing is by application. We check who you are before anything goes live, and we talk you through what a listing costs before you commit to it.
Why Pinnacle exists
Cowboy builders have cost homeowners their savings and good tradespeople their reputation. Most platforms check the company rather than the person behind it, so the ones who turn up and do the work properly get tarred with the same brush.
Pinnacle vets the individual. Our founder, Graham Nash, has spent 25 years helping families rebuild after they were let down, more than 500 of them, sometimes out of his own pocket. That standard is why tradespeople join, and it is why the businesses listed beside them are checked too.
For you that matters in a practical way: every trade reading your listing has been vetted before they got here, on ID, insurance, qualifications and references, and homeowners running projects on Pinnacle see it too. It is a smaller audience than a directory you can buy your way into, and a considerably better qualified one.
Graham's storyWho you would reach
- Groundworkers and builders pouring foundations and slabs for extensions, who order by the load to a booked morning.
- Driveway and landscaping firms laying bases and edgings, often wanting a part load at short notice.
- Small builders doing garden rooms and outbuildings, who need a mix specified for them and a truck that fits the access.
How a listing works
Being listed is being findable, not being sold for. Nobody is sent your details without asking for them.
Apply
Tell us what you supply, where you are and how far you deliver or travel. It takes a few minutes.
We check you
Your company registration, your trading history and anything you have told us you hold. A person does this, and rings you to go through it: anything you hold that the form has no box for, a licence, a registration, a scheme membership, is told to us on that call. We come back to you either way.
Your listing goes live
You appear in the directory under the categories you cover, to anyone searching near you.
They ask for your details
A vetted tradesperson, or a homeowner running a project here, reads your listing and asks for your contact details. That is the point at which you hear from them.
You take it from there
The conversation is yours. We do not quote for you, take the order, or add anything to what you charge.
What we check
Your company registration and trading history, the products you supply and how far you deliver. If you tell us you hold a quality scheme certification for your mixes, we record it and check it before your listing goes live.
Being checked is the point of the directory. A trade choosing a supplier here knows somebody looked, which is not something they can assume anywhere else, and it is why we would rather list fewer businesses properly than many on trust.
More about our checksWhat is coming
We record how many times somebody asked for a listed business's details, because that is the figure that means something rather than how many times a page happened to show you.
We are building a view for suppliers that will show you your own. It is not live yet, and we will tell you when it is rather than counting it as a reason to join today.
Homeowners running projects can search the directory too.
Questions trade suppliers ask
Can I list volumetric as well as barrel mixers?
Tick the category either way and say which you run on your website, which the listing links to. It changes what the person ordering can do with a part load and how they plan the pour, so it is worth being clear.
Will Pinnacle book pours for me?
No. Whoever finds your listing books with you directly, and in this category that is almost always a vetted groundworker or builder. We do not sit between you and the order.
Who is searching this category?
Vetted groundworkers, builders and driveway specialists with a pour coming up near you.
Concrete does not travel. Will I be shown to people too far away?
No. You choose how far you deliver on the form, from five miles up, and searches within that distance are ordered by distance with the closest shown first.

Applying starts the checks. It is not an instant yes, we tell you where you stand either way, and nothing goes live until you have agreed to it.
