At Shire Counties Concrete Pumping Ltd, we offer a high level of experience providing pre-concrete preparation services for commercial and domestic clients in the town and in the surrounding areas. Before placing an order – to make sure that the process is as smooth as possible – we need to know:

  • The type of concrete pump you need
  • The distance from where the concrete will be pumped to the furthest point
  • How much concrete would you require for pumping?
  • Any other important specifications such as the date and time of the site requirements
  • If washout facilities are available on site?

Important information to consider

For desired results, it is essential to provide us with details regarding the condition of your site. We advise you to take preventative measures to secure the surrounding area (this may include protecting grounds, walls and windows). All the services we carry out comply with the latest health and safety regulations. Furthermore, before setting up the pump area, you should consider making room for the service vehicle to access the area as well. You should also ensure that the area can support the outriggers and pumps. Additionally, a water outlet should be at a reachable distance to clean the excess concrete on the pumps and pipeline.
