Permeable Concrete

Traditional concrete is a dense solid material that doesn’t allow water to pass through easily. For certain surfaces – such as roads, driveways and pavements – this can pose a problem. That’s where porous concrete comes in.

To reduce pooling and prevent flooding, the team here at South Coast Concrete can supply permeable concrete for domestic and commercial projects across Portsmouth, Southampton and Chichester. Whether you’re building a porous concrete driveway or looking to improve drainage for a patio, we use only the best raw materials to ensure a quality concrete mix that will stand the test of time.

What Is Porous Concrete?

Porous concrete – sometimes referred to as permeable concrete or no-fines concrete – is made from a mixture of water, cement and coarse aggregates. Unlike conventional concrete, permeable concrete doesn’t use sand, as fine aggregates reduce porosity and can lead to surface water build-up. If your project requires a particular porous concrete specification, our team boasts decades of industry experience and can create a custom mix to accommodate your needs.
