When applying grout, it is essential to use the correct equipment to ensure that the product has the required durability, strength and waterproofing qualities. To help you decide on a grout pump product, here are some valuable tips to provide some guidance.

Typical Grouting Applications 

Most commonly, clients request grout pumps for the following reasons:

  • Waterproofing and joint sealing
  • Floor and tile restoration as well as laying down new tiles
  • Installing Metal doors and window frames
  • Connecting concrete sections, filling voids and holes in concrete blocks and levelling sidewalk slabs

Choosing The Right Grout Pump

Grout pumps come in many different forms, including electric, gas, hydraulic and air-powered models. Each of these pumps has unique characteristics that work well for a specific type of job. The scale and scope of the grouting project will determine which type of pump you should use.

1- Hand-Held Electric Grout Pumps

Hand-held pumps are lightweight and easy to use as it allows you to have more control over the job. These pumps are perfect for projects requiring high accuracy levels, such as levelling a concrete slab or filling up cracks.

2- Manual Grout Pumps

Manual pumps don’t require a power source, making them ideal for pumping most types of cement for large-scale grout jobs. They work well in most situations that don’t require high pressure, such as grouting door frames.

3- Larger Air And Gas Pumps 

Heavy-duty pumps work well for fulfilling larger grouting jobs. It is essential to consider the size, output pressure, output capacity, vertical limit and capacity of the mixer. A cavity-type pump works better for pumping dense, solid materials than other models.
