hmi hydraulic mud pump for sale quotation

The HMI HM-1 hydraulic mudjacking pump was the first concrete raising product engineered and manufactured by HMI, just over 40 years ago. It’s reliability and superior engineering maintains its place in the market, but has also acted as the springboard for other, more advanced models / options which offer various options of engine horsepower, hopper size, pumping pressure, and so much more.

Our largest, self-propelled, multi-functional pump. This rugged and durable pump is the top-of-the-line mudjacking unit. With the highest available pumping pressure, largest material hopper, most horsepower and versatility.

Our most popular model, the self-propelled, hydraulic mudjacking pump drives circles around the competition. Affordable and durable, the Power Pump is a great way to start-up or add to a concrete raising business.

HMI is proud of all its innovations and products, but perhaps the greatest innovation is the Quik Mix Pro automated volumetric hopper/mixer unit. The first fully automated unit rolled off the production line in March of 2003. This slabjacking unit, when mounted on a truck body, can carry a slab raising pump, dry material, cement, and water. Along with its unique twin shafted mixer, it can automatically mix and place material into the hopper of a pump. No shoveling is required!

Expanding beyond just the slabjacking industry, in 2008 HMI developed a revolutionary new Hydraulic Power Pack 10. With a new 2 in 1 design it offers 10,000 psi at 1 ½ gallons per minute, or 3,000 psi at 9 gallons per minute. Not only is the unit great as a seperate hydraulic power pack for running hydraulic tools (mixers and mudpumps), piering contractors can use it to install helical and resistance piers.

Hydraulic Mudpumps, Inc. is committed to future refinements and development to its product line. Our future will be determined by requests from you, our customer, and the upcoming industry demands.

Over the past 3 years I have had the pleasure of conducting monthly marketing seminars for small business concrete repair entrepreneurs. I begin each session by asking some questions of the group.

The revelation that these experienced small business people are spending that much for a “maybe” is interesting to behold. It is usually followed by group discussions where to a person they conclude that:

Do you communicate by E-Mail confirming your appointment for an estimate in the coming day(s) and include a photo and background of the estimator who will be visiting the site?

Over the past several years new technology products have become available which allow small business contractors to present an image and to deliver a level of service mirroring the most sophisticated national service firms. It all started with cloud based CRM (Customer Relationship Management) systems. These tools allowed mobile entrepreneurs to deploy mobile devices to manage their customer contact information in real time. However most recently, Business App developers have perfected tablet software which is nearly plug-n- play allowing contractors to easily execute on each of the recommendations inferred in my questions to the groups.

–         Offers you a tablet estimating tool which incorporates pictures and project itemization that easily prepares estimates on the spot during a prospect  site visit where you can email your customer a professionally produced estimate on the spot incorporating photos (a portable printer in your truck solves anyone’s need for paper)

–         Provides tools for emailing prospects; confirmations of appointments, follow-ups and even post job, before and after photos for their records with your invoice.

Over the past year many contractor support firms are commissioning app developers to create custom apps to make the vision above a reality. The customization simply implants arithmetic tools and fields where the service experts provide in the app design a capability for the app to calculate price by dimension of a job. As an example a flat work contractor merely measures out a slab for replacement and takes a picture with their tablet. Each contractor has preloaded their individual pricing, determined by market and circumstance. The app produces the estimate for E-mail/mail to the customer and populates all the supporting systems for record keeping and continuous contact with the prospect. A click of a button gives a contractor a map spotting all pending estimates and jobs. This technology is being applied in: concrete repair, concrete replacement, waterproofing, spray foaming and I predict it will be the standard for landscaping, painting and more.

Over recent months I became familiar with an ideal execution of this program where HMI, (www.ConcreteRaisingSystems.com) a concrete lifting and leveling manufacturer commissioned Logical Engine,  a business app software developer to create a system to maximize the efficiency of their customers. A tour of that systems and the potential can be viewed at (http://www.mudpumps.com/information-center/estimate-rocket/).

Some years ago I began a consulting assignment with a small concrete contractor asking him about his estimating process. He told me: 1) “it would take six years to train an estimator” and 2) “he could not trust anyone else to do estimates.” I told him; “I was leaving because, if that were true that he is destined to be the same size company forever!” That company is now: deploying technology in estimating, deploying a full time estimator doing 20 estimates a day, is 4x larger and that entrepreneur plays golf on the weekends vs. running around giving estimates.
