Small Concrete Pumps For Narrow Spaces
Tight-access sites need careful planning and the right pump. Mini line pumps and experienced crews can place concrete in backyards, narrow blocks, and laneways without heavy gear.
Not Every Building Site Has Room to Move
Battle axe blocks, townhouses, steep driveways, back-of-house extensions, they don’t leave much room for a pump truck. Boom pumps need clearance, setup space, and a straight path for the arm. But not every job offers that luxury.
That’s where a compact line pumps come in. These units can be parked on the street or in a driveway, with hoses run through side paths, under scaffolding, or around buildings.
Where Line Pumps Make the Difference
We handle tight pours regularly across Newcastle and the Hunter Valley. Common examples include:
- Backyard pool slabs
- Granny flat footings
- Basement or subfloor pours
- Inner-suburb driveways with limited frontage
- Sites with overhead power lines or low tree cover
- Renovations with no rear lane or vehicle access
Our crews know how to route hoses cleanly through fences, under scaff, and around tight corners, without damaging gardens, finished surfaces, or surrounding works.
Planning Makes the Difference
Before the pour, we assess access points, hose length, ground slope, and washout options and often a compact line pump and the right crew will make it work.
A site visit or even a few good photos helps us prep the job properly. We’ll talk through access paths, gear needed, and any extra hands required for hose management.
Supply, Labour, and Coordination
When space is tight, the job has to run smooth. We coordinate concrete delivery, small concrete pump hire and placement, and labour so there’s no waiting around , just a steady flow to ensure a fast finish.
If you need help organising the concrete itself, or extra crew to manage the hose and clean up, we can arrange that too.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you pump through a house or under scaffolding?
Yes. With proper planning and access, we can run line pump hoses through carports, down hallways, or under scaffold. Protection mats are used where needed.
How much access does a mini pump need?
A compact line pump can be parked kerbside or in a tight driveway. As long as we can run hose to the slab, we can usually make it work.
