What We Offer

Concrete Pumping

Concrete pumping in Old Bar helps local projects run smoothly. From beachside homes to bushland builds, pumping tackles tricky access and coastal conditions. It's ideal for house slabs, extensions, driveways and outdoor areas.

Concrete Pumping That Suits Coastal Life

Building in Old Bar often means adapting to the land. Some blocks back onto bushland, others sit close to the coast—and access is rarely straightforward. That’s why having flexible concrete pumping makes a big difference. It’s faster, safer and easier on your crew.

We’ve poured concrete around tight fences, up narrow driveways and behind existing homes. Coastal soil can shift, so getting the mix right and the pour clean is key to a lasting finish. Pumping gives better control over placement, which helps when you’re working in sensitive or uneven areas.

It’s not just for big jobs either. Even smaller pours like footpaths, pool surrounds or backyard slabs benefit from concrete pumping. With fewer hands-on steps, you get a neater result, and there’s less clean-up. You also avoid the risk of damaging landscaping or pathways by dragging wheelbarrows through the yard.

Old Bar has its quirks, but concrete placement doesn’t have to be one of them. Pumping gives you more precision, less hassle and a better result—no matter the block or build size.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much space does a concrete pump need to set up?

Space requirements depend on the type of pump. Line pumps need enough room to park the truck and lay out hoses, typically along a clear path to the pour site. Boom pumps require more space for stabilisers and the boom arm.

Most residential sites can accommodate at least one of the two options, but tight access should always be discussed before the job to avoid issues on the day.
What preparation is needed before concrete pumping starts?

Site prep is key. Make sure access to the pour location is clear—move vehicles, materials or debris that might block the setup. Ensure formwork is in place and stable. The area should be safe for the crew to work around.

If there’s a long distance between the pump and the pour spot, let the team know in advance so they can bring enough hose or pipe.
Can concrete be pumped uphill or over fences?

Yes, concrete can be pumped both uphill and over obstacles. Boom pumps are especially good for this—they use a hydraulic arm that can reach over fences, walls or buildings.

Line pumps can also deliver concrete across varied terrain, including mild slopes, using a series of connected hoses. Proper planning ensures the setup meets the elevation and distance requirements for your specific site.
Does weather affect concrete pumping?

Yes, but not as much as you might think. Light rain usually won’t stop a job, though heavy rain or storms can delay it for safety reasons. Hot weather can speed up the setting time of concrete, so pumping helps reduce delays and get the mix in place quickly.

Cold weather slows the curing process, but that can be managed with additives or timing adjustments. Your concrete provider will factor in the conditions on the day to get it right.
