A concrete pump moves wet concrete from a mixer to the pour location using a hopper, agitator, and piston pumps.

Many concrete mixes can be pumped, but the type of pump, cement content, and aggregate size can affect pumpability. A pump mix contains extra cement and sand to allow the concrete to flow through the pipelines.

You'll need to provide parking for the concrete mixer and pump truck, and a pathway for the pump line. You should also protect any door frames or garden walls with dust sheets and padding.

Typically, 20 minutes to pump a whole truck out.

Roughly about 30 minutes for our team to set up before starting a job.

Anytime, but typically spring and fall are the best months.

We provide a wash-out bag to clean the pump out and it is disposed of at the customer's convenience.

Concrete pumps are best for jobs where time or access is limited. They can also save time and money by avoiding spills from wheelbarrows.

Concrete pumps can pump up to 160 m³ of concrete per hour, but the flow rate can be controlled for more delicate jobs.

Concrete pumping can save money on labor, but there is an additional cost for hiring the pump. The final cost can be affected by many factors, including the weather, road conditions, and site conditions.
