Concrete pumping across Salford
Roberts Concrete Pumping works across Salford and the wider Greater Manchester area, covering concrete line pump hire and boom pump hire along with liquid screed, power floating and pattern imprinted driveways. From our Northwich base we run up the M56 onto the M60 and drop into the city on the M602, so a pour in Eccles, Ordsall or down at Salford Quays is a planned, on-time delivery rather than a guess. The population here is around 270,000 and grew faster over the last decade than anywhere else in the North West, which keeps a steady run of extensions, infill plots and new-build sites coming, and on plenty of them a ready-mix wagon simply can't get to where the concrete needs to land.
Salford is in the middle of one of the biggest regeneration programmes in the region. The £2.5bn Crescent Salford masterplan will bring up to 3,000 new homes, with around 800 earmarked for Adelphi Village, 263 on the old Adelphi University site due to start on site in spring 2026, and 185 apartments approved on the former Farmer Norton car park off Clemison Street. Set that next to the continued build-out around MediaCityUK and the Victorian terraced streets of Swinton, Pendleton and Weaste, and tight access is the problem we get called in to solve again and again.

Our Concrete Pumping Services in Salford
Concrete Line Pump Hire
Our concrete line pumps carry concrete through steel pipeline that we install and clip together across the site, with rubber hose added on the run where the access calls for it. That's what gets a slab into a rear yard in Ordsall, a foundation behind a terrace in Pendlebury, or a floor pour on a cleared infill plot without the wagon ever leaving the road. Every line pump hire comes with an experienced operator who runs the pour start to finish.

Liquid Screed Supply & Installation
Our liquid screed service pumps a free-flowing screed that spreads and settles to a smooth, level finish in a single pass. It's a strong fit for the apartment schemes going up around the Quays and for extensions running underfloor heating, where flatness across the whole floor matters. We run a pre-pour readiness check before we start so nothing holds the job up on the day.

Concrete Boom Pump Hire
For larger pours and anything that needs placing over height or distance, our concrete boom pumps use a hydraulic arm to reach over scaffolding, hoardings and outbuildings. They suit the multi-plot residential builds and city-fringe apartment work running through schemes like the Crescent. We'll talk through pump size, where it sets up and delivery timing before anything is booked.

Power Floating
After the pour, power floating closes and hardens the surface to a tight, durable finish, using ride-on or walk-behind machines to suit the slab. Booking the float and the pump as one visit keeps a busy programme moving instead of waiting on a second contractor and a second ready-mix window.

Pattern Imprinted Concrete Driveways
Our pattern imprinted concrete driveways are poured fresh, then patterned, coloured and sealed on site to give a stone, slate or cobble look without the upkeep of block paving. Through a wet Greater Manchester winter a sealed concrete surface holds its line far better than loose paving on a sloped drive.

Access is the Whole Point
Salford's older neighbourhoods are built around terraces, entries and rear yards, and most of the new pipeline is brownfield infill on tight city plots. We work out the pipeline route and check feasibility before we commit to a date, so pour day isn't where the surprises turn up.
You Get a Straight Answer
Send us photos of the site and we'll tell you which pump actually fits. If a boom suits your timeline better than a line pump, we'll say so rather than book you the wrong kit.
One Team Across the Trades
As well as pumping we handle screed, power floating and pattern imprinted driveways, so there are fewer contractors to line up and one crew that knows the site from setup to finish.
Operator on Every Pump Hire
Every concrete pump hire comes with an experienced operator. No equipment-only hire, no guesswork on site. The operator manages the pour from setup to finish.
