What We Offer

Concrete Pumping

Concrete pumping in Harrington suits coastal builds and compact blocks. It’s perfect for slabs, driveways, decks and extensions. With sandy soil and tight access in parts of town, a smart pumping setup gets concrete in place cleanly and efficiently.

Concrete Pumping for Coastal Builds

Harrington has that classic coastal charm—and coastal challenges when it comes to building. That means you don’t want to be hauling barrows across sandy soil or squeezing trucks down tight access points. Concrete pumping makes the whole job easier, quicker and safer.

From back patio extensions to full house slabs, pumping removes the hard slog of traditional placement. We’ve handled jobs near the breakwall, down tight streets and even on sloped or water-adjacent sites. With a mix of boom and line pumps available, we’ll match the gear to the site without overcomplicating it.

In coastal areas like Harrington, consistency matters. The concrete mix has to flow evenly, especially when working with changing temperatures and exposed foundations. Concrete pumping helps control the pour, reduce cold joints and keep that finish clean. It’s also easier on your crew and better for timelines.

If you're planning a build, reno or extension near the water, pumping is the smart way to go. It’s faster, tidier and helps set your project off on the right foot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between boom and line concrete pumps?

Boom pumps use a robotic arm to deliver concrete from above, which is great for hard-to-reach or high-up areas like second-storey pours or over existing structures. Line pumps use hoses that are laid out across the ground and are ideal for more direct, level access.

Line pumps are often used for residential jobs like patios, driveways or small slab pours, while boom pumps are better for bigger or more complex sites. Choosing the right pump depends on your site’s layout, the volume of concrete needed and how far the pour area is from the truck.
Does concrete pumping require a lot of setup?

Setting up for a concrete pump isn’t as involved as it may seem. The crew will arrive early, assess access, position the pump truck and lay out hoses or extend the boom depending on the equipment. For most jobs, setup and prep take 30–60 minutes.

What’s important is giving the team a clear understanding of the site conditions beforehand—things like slope, access, and the exact pour location. This helps avoid delays and keeps the process smooth.
Is concrete pumping safe around existing structures?

Yes, concrete pumping is generally safer than traditional methods when working near existing buildings or landscaping. Because the concrete is transported through pipes or hoses, there’s no need to barrow heavy wet concrete through tight spaces, reducing the risk of damage.

The controlled flow also limits splash and spillage. Pumping allows for more accurate placement, which is critical around finished surfaces, footings near walls, or slabs adjoining structures.
Can concrete pumping be used on sloped blocks?

Absolutely. In fact, concrete pumping is one of the best options for sloped or uneven blocks. Trying to wheelbarrow concrete uphill or downhill increases risk of injury, uneven placement and wasted material.

With a pump, concrete is pushed directly where it’s needed—whether that’s downhill into a footing or up a slope to a pad. The consistent flow ensures the concrete sets properly and reduces the chance of cold joints or uneven thickness.
