Concrete Pumping in Oldham

Oldham area, Greater Manchester
New-build footings

55m³ boom-pumped into the footings for two new builds near Oldham

55m³ of concrete for two new builds in the Oldham area. Before we could concrete the footings, the site had to be piled and a ring beam put in.

With the reinforcement and formwork ready, we brought in the boom pump. Our wagons fed the pump’s hopper, and the boom placed the concrete along the footings while the crew worked it in.

On a site like this a boom pump gets the concrete straight into the footings from one spot, so nothing has to be barrowed across an uneven site.

Pumping new-build footings — FAQs

Can you pump concrete into footings?

Yes. A boom pump places concrete straight into footings and ground beams from one spot, which is ideal on sloping or awkward sites like this one near Oldham. A line pump does the same where the route is long and low.

Do you supply concrete for piled sites and ring beams?

Yes. On this job the site was piled and a ring beam put in before we concreted the footings. We supply it to the spec your engineer gives us.

Do you cover Oldham?

Yes, we deliver and pump concrete across Oldham and Greater Manchester. See our Oldham ready-mix concrete page for more.
