A boom needs room. The truck has to get close enough to swing an arm over the pour, and on a lot of blocks in South East Queensland it simply can’t. We run high-pressure line pumps instead. The pump sits wherever there’s space and the concrete travels the rest of the way through hose. If a job does need a boom, we can organise one through trusted partners.
That’s what makes the awkward ones possible: around the side of a house, through a garage, over a fence, down a batter, up a hill. Long runs are everyday work for us. Anything over 70 metres gets planned before the day, with a site check and the right crew and setup.
Booked direct with Blake and confirmed the afternoon before. Same standard whether it’s a house slab at Buderim or a culvert on a range job outside Gympie.
How a job runs↓
Repeat work makes up most of our pumping. Concreters come back because we turn up when we’re booked, builders because the slab goes in on program, and civil crews because we work inside their systems.
Six steps, same every time, whether it’s a house slab or a culvert on a range road. Step through to see what happens and what we need from you.
You ring 0434 866 490 and talk to Blake, not a call centre. Tell us the pour, the access and the date. Most of the time we can confirm on that call whether the block suits a line run and roughly where you sit in the week.
We work out where the pump stands, where the line runs and what has to be protected on the way. On a tight block, that’s the difference between a clean day and a mess on your neighbour’s driveway.
Most residential pours don’t need a written quote. You book, we turn up, and it’s invoiced on our standard hire rates for the time on site. Bigger commercial and civil pours are planned and priced in writing before the day.
Our own site-specific SWMS and a daily pre-start on the plant. On a commercial or civil job, our SWMS and records come to you for review and approval before we start, and we work to your site rules.
Pump positioned, lines run and anything nearby that could be splashed is covered. We work to your placement rate, not ours, so your finishers are never chasing the hose or waiting on it.
Washout contained or bagged out, the road pressure-cleaned, hose and lines packed away. We leave the site the way we found it. Then the invoice or payment claim, which matches the time on site and any variations you signed.
Shot on site, not staged. Slabs, tight blocks and civil pours, all placed by PUMPD crews. More goes up on @pumpdconcrete
Anything not answered here, call Blake on 0434 866 490 and ask him directly.
A boom pump swings an arm over the pour, so the truck has to get close and needs room to set up. A line pump sits wherever there is space and sends the concrete through hose. That is what makes tight blocks, long runs and steep ground possible. If a job does need a boom, we can organise one through trusted partners.
Past 100 metres, with aggregate up to 20mm and mixes to 40MPa and beyond. Anything over 70 metres is planned before the day, so tell us the run and the fall when you book.
No. You or your supplier order the mix, we place it. That keeps you in control of the spec and the price, and it means we are not marking up someone else’s product.
The more the better in a busy week, but late bookings get done when the plant is free. Ring Blake and he will tell you where you sit in the program rather than string you along. Night and weekend pours by arrangement.
Yes. Washout contained on site or bagged out, the road pressure-cleaned before we leave. You should not be able to tell which neighbour had the pump out the front.
Most residential pours are charged on our standard hire rates for the time on site, with a minimum hire. Commercial and civil pours are planned and priced before the day, including standby. Anything that changes on the day is recorded with a photo, signature and timestamp before we carry on.
Sunshine Coast, Moreton Bay, Brisbane and Gympie as our core area, regularly Gold Coast, Fraser Coast and Northern Rivers NSW, and away work for the right project across regional Queensland.
