I used Mixamate to lay 3 cubic metres for a driveway and it was
great............. 3 of us had the whole job finished in an hour and it
saved all the hassle of mixing, ordering materials etc.

I need to lay the concrete base for my planned conservatory.

The issue is that I need 1.5 cubic metres to be laid and I have no
access for using readymix.

Is there anything wrong in "splitting" the base in half and laying one
side at a time, or does the base HAVE to be one complete mass?


I would look for a mix & barrow operarion, or even a readymix truck
with a pump or conveyer.

1.5 cube is not a massive ammount for 3 big lads to barrow.
