Action Concrete Pumping

Servicing Western Canada Since 1978 Bruce and Marylin Dika purchased their first concrete pump for just under $40,000 in 1978, in Fort McMurray at the end of the oil boom. At this point in time, pumping concrete was a seasonal practice, leaving the Dikas with loans on equipment and a shortage of work. Many companies did not survive, but the Dikas had a couple of ideas up their sleeve. They turned their fleet into logging trucks in the off-season and tapped into a still thriving sector of the economy. During summer months, the pumps went back on the trucks so they could maintain a steady flow of business year-round. Residential construction was starting to pick up and ready-mix trucks and chutes were the common practice for new homes. Bruce and Marilyn pioneered residential concrete pumping by showing residential builders that pumping concrete can be a fast, feasible, and safer option than ever before! A&B started pumping walls which then progressed into the full residential package including footings, walls, basements, garage floors and exterior flat work like driveways, sidewalks, and patios. No one else was doing this at the time, and today residential concrete pumping is the norm. Throughout the years, this method has not only saved lives, but also equipment, money and time. Since 1978, we have maintained our core values and have collectively chosen to make pumping concrete our single focus, providing our staff, employees, and customers with the highest level of integrity, safety, and reliability as concrete pumping professionals. “No job too big, no job too small” is our mindset. With the continued growth, A&B now falls under Reach Construction Services Group, who also operates Action Concrete Pumping (Interior B.C), P-Ban Concrete Pumping (Fort St. John) and Combined Concrete Pumping (Fort McMurray). We are the largest pump company in Western Canada, with our brands located in Edmonton, Calgary, Fort McMurray, Saskatchewan, Fort St. John, and interior B.C.
