Concrete Pumping For You

Planning a large construction job but concerned about how you’re going to get the large amount of concrete on site without large expenses or labour time being used up? Our team here at Base Concrete can help. Not only can we supply you with a range of concrete mixes to suit your specific needs and requirements, no matter how large or small, but we’re also able to ensure that the concrete reaches its intended destination on time. This is made possible by our dedication to providing the best service to our customers, and through the use of our concrete pumps Luton to transport the goods.

How Does it Work?

At first glance a concrete line pump may look complicated or it may seem as though the concrete won’t be able to pass through; however the mechanisms involved are relatively simple and easy to use.

The main components of a line pump, along with the tubes are the diesel powered engine which is attached to the back of the cement truck and a large worm gear which is at the centre of a funnel. The diesel engine controls the worm gear and pushes the cement down the line to its destination.

Why Use a Pump?

Although our friendly and reliable team have no objection to waiting on site whilst you and your team transport the concrete we deliver via whatever means possible, we believe that the use of concrete pumps is beneficial for all parties concerned.

The main advantage of using a concrete pump on your site is that it cuts down on the time being used to transport the concrete from the location it’s delivered to, to where it is required on site; meaning your team can continue with other jobs at hand, such as fitting the garage doors Luton, or any other tasks which are on the ‘to do’ list. Our 70 metre, easy to manoeuvre line pumps also enable even the largest amount of concrete to be delivered to construction sites with limited or tight access.

As the economic environment within the UK begins to stabilise, the construction trade is slowly beginning to pick up and new builds are being built in many towns and cities throughout the country. One material that all these construction sites will require, both for the foundations of buildings and during various stages of the build is that of concrete. Unfortunately as anyone who works within the building industry will be able to testify, the mixing and movement of large quantities of concrete can be a time consuming and back breaking job. This is where the concrete pumps Luton supplied by our team at Base Concrete can come in handy.

Our team have been providing a range of concrete services to various domestic and commercial customers throughout the Luton and Hemel Hempstead area, and through our experience within the industry – along with the feedback we’ve received from our previous clients – we’ve found that concrete pumps can provide many benefits to construction jobs of all shapes and sizes.

Saves Time:

With the assistance of a concrete pump, the time spent on site waiting for concrete to be mixed and arrive in its required location can dramatically decrease. There’s no need for all personnel to be drafted in to transport the concrete from the drop off/mixing area, through to the area of the site it’s required; instead a pump can take the product directly there.

Time is also saved as there’s less of the site to prepare to ensure that concrete vehicles can get to the desired location.

Productivity:

As there’s no need for everyone to pick up a wheelbarrow and shovel to get the concrete to the desired location, as the concrete is being pumped your staff can be carrying out other jobs to ensure that the build is completed on time and within budget.

Here at Base Concrete, we’re able to provide concrete pumps Luton which carry seventy-metres of line, making them ideal for sites of any size. If you’d like to take advantage of our concrete pumps or any of our other concrete services, contact us via 01442 389 105.

Any construction professional will testify that no two jobs are exactly the same. While you may spend all of your working day laying concrete for forecourts and driveways, there will be few that proceed 100% to plan. Small differences in the circumstances of your project will either make things much easier, or much more difficult, but thankfully here at Base Concrete we can help solve any problems you may have when laying concrete. We use our detailed knowledge of concrete and varied range of concrete pumps Hemel Hempstead to ensure we’re consistent in our provision of concrete services which meet your needs no matter what the circumstances.

The main problem that you’re likely to have, especially when working in a residential area or even when concreting at your own home, is a lack of space. Driveways extending up the sides of houses for example can be notoriously difficult to concrete – just think how long it would take to lay concrete for a 20 foot driveway one wheelbarrow at a time!

Here at Base Concrete, we have two solutions to this problem.

1.    Small Trucks

The vehicles in which we deliver our mixes and mini mixes are designed to allow us to deliver to DIY clients as well as to large commercial construction firms. This means that, using only our trucks (not pumps) we can access areas where space is at a premium to deliver our concrete directly to the area where it is needed.

Where larger trucks have to park at the roadside and deliver concrete one wheelbarrow at a time, in many circumstances we can simply reverse up to your plot and deploy the concrete, at no extra charge whatsoever.

2.    Concrete Pumps

Whilst our trucks can handle some restricted access situations, in some instances there’s no better alternative than our concrete pumps. Regularly maintained and available at relatively short notice, our concrete pumps Hemel Hempstead are capable of delivering a mix to a plot up to 70 metres away from our vehicles. If you’re working at the rear of a building for example, this could be the perfect solution, so get in touch today for service within a 15 mile radius of the Base Concrete Hemel Hempstead Depot.

When undertaking concrete work, important time may be spent simply moving the concrete across the site to the right place. This is not only time consuming, but also costly in regards to labour. Whilst a wheelbarrow may be cheap to hire, the time spent funding contractors to move it isn’t cost effective for the purpose. This is where concrete pumping Aylesbury can save you such costs as well as valuable time. Through using our static line or screed pump, you’ll be able to receive your materials with speed and ease.

You may think that a pump may be of no use to you, as it will not reach your intended location due to difficult or limited access. Our static line pump can carry a lengthy 70m of line, so we are able to negotiate the pump through alleyways and houses in order to service your site. The pumps we supply are available in 16m, 24m, and 34m sizes, to coincide with your requirements, so that you will receive the adequate amount of ready mix concrete quickly and effortlessly.

Preparation is often key to success, and as a leading concrete pumping company, we are able to deliver concrete supplies much faster than the majority of our competitors. This is due to our range of varying truck sizes, which we have at the ready for your concrete requirements, and with our 15 mile radius delivery, we can transport supplies to all the major towns around Hemel Hempstead. This ensures you’ll be receiving a fast and efficient service with no fuss and no mess.

Suitable for both commercial and DIY customers, we at Base Concrete can offer the services to supply you with a variety of top quality concrete mixes and screeds to suit your every need. Contact us today for a quote or more information regarding concrete pumping Aylesbury.
