Concrete pumping for tight access
For pours a truck cannot get to, or cannot get to in time. Tight access, and small pours welcome.
For pours a truck cannot get to, or cannot get to in time. We run a line pump, not a truck pump: the concrete goes down a line laid along the ground instead of over a boom.
Up to 50 m of line, for tight access, and small pours are welcome. Got a job coming up with tight access? That is the call to make.

Have this ready
None of it is compulsory. It is just the difference between one visit and two.
- Photos of the access, or time on site with us beforehand.
- Your concrete booked, with the mix, the volume and the time the truck is coming.
- The boxing done and the steel in, so the pour is not waiting on us and we are not waiting on it.
How we do it
The sequence on a normal job.
- Look at the access first, either on site or from a photo you text us, so the line is planned before the day.
- Set up, run the line out, pump, then clean out.
- Cut the slab when it is ready, if it needs cutting, so it is one company rather than two.
- Leave the site clean.
What we get asked
What is the difference between a line pump and a truck pump?
A truck pump reaches over the top of a site on a boom. A line pump pushes the concrete down a line laid along the ground, for tight access. Ours runs up to 50 m of line.
How far can you pump?
Up to 50 m of line. Send us the site and we will tell you what suits it.
Do you take small pours?
Yes. Small pours are welcome.
Can you pump where access is tight?
Yes. Tight access is what a line pump is for, as long as there is a path for the line.
How do I find out what it will cost?
Use the calculator on this page, or send through the volume, the access and where you are.
