Concrete Orders - what you need to know?
We can help - give us a call on 01235 851523

What information do I need before I hire a pump?
*  Name and contact details
*
 Full site address including postcode
*  Date and time for the pump, allowing for 1hr set up
*  Size of pump required (help and guidance available)
*  Volume and type of concrete, including any additions, fibres etc
*  Brief Description of the pour, eg footings, external slab, bridge, deck etc
*  
Any special requirements, additional pipeline, second man etc

What do I need to supply to ensure a safe and efficient pump pour?
*  A level area of hard standing, with no overhead obstructions, on which to set up the pump
*  Clear access to the pump for truck mixers to back onto
*  Cement to grout the line - 1 x 25kg bag per 10m of pipeline
*  Somewhere to deposit excess grout
*  A good pump mix of concrete, ensure you tell your concrete supplier that you will be using a pump
*  A competent concreting gang to lay the concrete 
*  A suitable place for the operator to wash the pump out.  
*  A good supply of water (the pump does carry its own supply)

The sequence of a typical pump pour?
*  The pump will arrive and liaise with the customer before set up
* The customer will be asked to sign the job sheet in the "on hire" box
*  The concrete mixer truck will arrive and back onto the pump
*  The pump operator will grout the line and commence pumping
*  The concrete will be placed into position using the boom where possible. 
*  Where ground line is used the concreting gang will need to move the pipeline around as necessary
*  Cautionary note - concrete is pumped under high pressure all personnel should be made aware of the risks and dangers associated with the end of the hose (please see risk assessment)
*  At the end of the pour the pump operator will clean all the concrete from the pump and pipeline.  This will take approx 1hr
*  The pump operator will then put the boom back into the travel position and load all other equipment onto pump
*  The job sheet will be prepared for the customer to sign in the "off site" box
*  The pump will then travel back to the depot
