Concrete Pumping in Tully
Concrete Pumping on the Cassowary Coast
Tully has a reputation for rain, and it’s earned. For anyone pouring concrete here, that single fact shapes everything — when you book, how much slack you leave in the program, and whether a pour can be placed and finished before the weather turns. It’s the reason a pump is worth having on a Tully job: the faster concrete goes in, the less exposure you have.
Far Northern Concrete Pumping works the Cassowary Coast from our base in Mareeba, with more than 15 years of pouring across Far North Queensland behind us. Our 31m, 28m and 20m boom pumps and line pump cover everything from a farm shed floor to a civil structure.

Why Choose Us?
We plan Tully pours around the forecast rather than hoping it holds. That means being honest with you about whether a date is realistic, being ready to move early when a window opens, and being available around the clock so a pour can start at first light if that’s what it takes to beat the afternoon. A slab placed quickly and finished properly is worth far more than one squeezed in at the wrong time.
Our gear is maintained in our own workshop, our operators are fully licensed and high-risk certified, and we carry the reach to work from firm ground when the rest of the site has turned soft. We also offer concrete spraying for embankments and stabilisation work, which comes into its own on this country.
Residential Concrete Pumping
House slabs, extensions, shed and garage floors, driveways, water tank pads and outdoor areas make up our residential work around Tully. Blocks here are often generous but soft underfoot after rain, and the ground a truck could cross in September is not the ground it can cross in February.
A boom pump means we can set up on the firm part of the site and still reach the pour. Tell us where the concrete has to land and what the access is like at that time of year, and we’ll bring the pump that suits it.
Commercial Concrete Pumping
Tully’s commercial and agricultural building runs to packing sheds, machinery and equipment workshops, cold storage, transport hardstands, industrial floors and the retail and hospitality work that supports the town. Much of it is tied to the growing and harvest calendar, which sets dates that genuinely cannot move.
We schedule to those dates, including out-of-hours work where a facility can’t be taken offline during the day. Our operators hold the high-risk licensing commercial sites require and are used to working within a live, operating site.
Civil Concrete Pumping
High rainfall makes drainage the defining civil challenge here. Culverts, floodways, headwalls, kerb and channel, bridge and causeway structures, retaining walls and road works all need to be built to handle water that arrives fast and in volume — and built inside a dry-season window.
We’re licensed, equipped and available 24/7 to work to that constraint, with boom and line pumps for exposed or restricted sites. Call 0413 345 977 with your program and we’ll work back from the dates that matter.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Tully and the Cassowary Coast are part of the Far North Queensland area we service from our Mareeba base, alongside Cairns, the Tablelands and Cape York.
We talk it through with you before it becomes a crisis. Light rain doesn’t necessarily stop a pour, but a downpour mid-placement can ruin a finish. Where the pour can move we’ll help you find a better window; where it can’t, we’ll start as early as needed to get it placed and finished.
Often, yes — that’s a strength of a boom pump. We set up on firm ground and reach the pour rather than driving a heavily loaded truck across a soft site. Let us know the conditions and we’ll bring the right pump and plan the setup.
Regularly. Packing and machinery shed floors, hardstands, tank and silo pads, bunkers and rural driveways are all standard work for us across the region.
