Beam & Block FAQs
-
As the concrete products used are all precast at our factory, the installation is an entirely dry process. For this reason, the installation of beam and block is usually unaffected by cold or wet weather so can continue even during winter months.
-
The supporting blockwork needs to be laid first, but otherwise there is very little preparation needed. Minimal levels of excavation are required – with preparation at a minimum, project timelines are shortened.
-
The beams employed in these floors have a significantly longer span than timber & therefore it is much cheaper and easier to install than traditional timber methods.
-
Beam and block floors are maintenance free – completely unaffected by damp, rot, or vermin. These highly durable floors are clean, mould free, unparalleled in longevity, and are incredibly low cost over their lifespan.

“We had Block and Beam installed yesterday and I wanted to draw your attention to what great workers Tom Roberts and his team were, and what a credit they are to Milbank’s workforce. They were polite, friendly, and nothing was a problem.
They marched on and got the job done; even when they thought they were going to get delayed they still all pushed on. I’ve had them on my last 2 sites and both times they’ve been brilliant. Please thank the boys for me.”
