Concrete pumping across St Helens
St Helens is in the middle of a £100 million town centre rebuild, with a new £32m Transport Interchange and Gamble Square taking shape between the Gamble Building, the Theatre Royal and a new hotel, plus a Market Hall, 64 homes and new office space following on behind. Roberts Concrete Pumping covers St Helens for concrete pump hire, including line pumps, boom pumps, liquid screed, power floating and pattern imprinted driveways, reaching the town from our Northwich base via the M6 at Haydock or the M62 at Rainhill Stoops, with the A580 East Lancashire Road carrying most of the traffic across the borough. The town itself is home to around 117,308 people, rising to 183,200 across the wider borough, on streets that move quickly between Thatto Heath terraces, Eccleston villages and the newer estates spreading out from Sutton.
Outside the centre, Torus is building 168 homes at Lancots Lane in Sutton, a £28m mix of shared ownership and affordable rent housing, while the Bold Forest Masterplan has earmarked land for close to 3,000 homes long-term, with Wain Estates and Taylor Wimpey each bidding to deliver 220 of the first phase. St Helens Borough Council's Local Plan is steering all of it, and between town centre infill, village-edge sites and new estate building, there's rarely a quiet week for concrete pump hire across the borough.

Concrete Pumping Cover for St Helens
Concrete Boom Pump Hire
Our concrete boom pumps reach over scaffolding, hoardings and parked vehicles on a hydraulic arm, placing concrete at height or distance without blocking the street. They suit the town centre apartment work taking shape around the Interchange and the multi-plot Torus and Bold Forest sites further out. We agree pump size, set-up and timing with you before anything's booked.

Power Floating
Power floating closes and hardens a freshly poured slab to a smooth, durable finish, using ride-on or walk-behind machines depending on the size of the area. Booking the float alongside the pump in one visit keeps a tight build programme moving instead of waiting on a second contractor.

Concrete Line Pump Hire
Our concrete line pumps run steel pipeline from the pump to the pour point, clipped together across the site, with rubber hose used where the route demands it. That's how we get a slab into a rear yard behind a Thatto Heath terrace, a footing onto a tight Eccleston plot, or a foundation where Sutton's newer cul-de-sacs leave no room for a wagon to turn. Every line pump hire comes with an experienced operator.
Learn moreLiquid Screed Supply and Installation
Our liquid screed service pumps a free-flowing screed that settles to a smooth, level finish across the whole floor in one pass. It's well suited to new builds in Sutton and Eccleston running underfloor heating, where flatness across the room is critical. A pre-pour readiness check is part of every booking.

Pattern Imprinted Concrete Driveways
Our pattern imprinted concrete driveways are poured fresh on site, then patterned, coloured and sealed to give a stone, slate or cobble finish without the upkeep of block paving. St Helens sees around 1,024mm of rain a year, more than nearby Liverpool, and a sealed concrete surface stands up to that far better than loose block paving on an open driveway.

Access is the Whole Point
Most jobs here come down to a rear yard behind a Thatto Heath terrace or a new-build plot in Sutton where the wagon simply can't get close enough. We work out the pipeline route and check it's workable before we agree a date, so there's nothing to improvise on the day.
Planned Before Pour Day
Every booking starts with a phone call or a few WhatsApp photos. We cover distance to the pour point, route widths, and how delivery from your ready-mix supplier will time in, so pour day stays calm.
You Get a Straight Answer
If a line pump suits your job better than a boom pump, that's what we'll book, even if it's the smaller job. We'd rather give you a straight answer than the kit that's easiest for us.
One Team Across the Trades
As well as pump hire, we handle liquid screed, power floating and pattern imprinted driveways, all from the same crew, with an experienced operator included on every pump hire.
