Why Hire a Concrete Pumping Company?

Concrete pumping provides multiple benefits to jobs, both large and small. There are a few good reasons to use a boom or a line pump to place your concrete by hiring a company like TIPP-MONT Concrete Pumping as follows:

  1. Faster Placement – No need to keep moving mixer trucks around on a job site. Our Operator can move the boom with a remote control unit anywhere to place the concrete as directed.
  2. Ease of Placement – No Wheelbarrows needed. No rakes needed to drag the concrete 6-7 feet from the discharge point of the truck chute.
  3. Less Congestion – for hard-to-reach spaces that are not easily accessible by mixer trucks without the need for re-handling which improves the quality of the concrete.
  4. Decreased Time, Labor & Material Cost – to minimize the mess of concrete spilling outside of the projected area of placement whether a footing, wall or slab.
  5. Workmen’s Compensation Claims – to reduce employee backache or injury from placing concrete manually by hand, wheelbarrow, or some other means outside our services.
  6. Avoid getting stuck in soft ground – No added expense for a tow truck to pull out a large
    concrete mixer truck.

If you are looking for a concrete placement project in the Central Indiana and Eastern Illinois area due to any of the above reasons, make sure you call TIPP-MONT Concrete Pumping today!

Concrete Pumps

Boom Pumps

Concrete Boom Pumps are a kind of concrete conveying equipment that can continuously move the ready-mix material to an area with incredible accuracy. Boom Pumps are attached to a stationary truck with a skilled operator that utilizes a remote control to move the boom to the desired location so there is no need to haul heavy, wet concrete across a job site. These pumps have a hopper system to continuously churn the ready mix, similar to a concrete mixer truck. Concrete mixer trucks are able to load directly into the pump’s hopper system which also has a mesh gate to keep out unwanted clumps or other materials.

Due to the stationary nature of boom pumps, it is great for jobs where traffic flow may be a problem as the trucks can be placed out of the way and convey the concrete to the desired location on the jobsite through horizontal and/or vertical pipelines on the boom.

Line Pumps

A truck-mounted static concrete line pump is mounted on a truck bed. The pump operator can drive it directly to a job site and use separate placing hoses to get the concrete conveyed to the desired location via ground level. It is a much smaller, more compact, and cost-effective way to place concrete. Line Pump is much easier to transport and maneuver at a job site where there is a need to get inside or around an existing building or structures that a boom pump or ready-mix truck cannot access. It gives the Operator and Hoseman more flexibility to add as many steel and/or rubber hoses as necessary to place concrete.
