De-Dag Service:
Build-Up Removal
Hardened concrete build-up (“dags”) quietly steals your payload, burns your fuel and wears your mixer out. Our de-dag service strips it back to bare steel every 3 months, so every load you cart is concrete, not rock.
Why De-Dag Every 3 Months?
Every pour leaves a little concrete behind, and it sets like the product you deliver. Inside drums, on chutes, around hoppers and fins, it stacks up load after load until your mixer is hauling tonnes of dead rock. We remove it professionally before it costs you payload, fuel and compliance.
Carry concrete, not rock: Hardened build-up adds dead weight that pushes you over load limits, so we strip it back so every load is payload.
Save fuel and payload: Less dead weight means a lower fuel bill and more billable concrete on every single trip.
Protect your mixer: Built-up dags wear drums, fins and bearings faster, so clearing them out extends the life of your equipment.
Every 3 months, like clockwork: A regular 3-month de-dag keeps the build-up manageable, the job quick and your mixer earning instead of carting rock.
Talk to a real technician.
Had a mixer barrel that was caked up and a chute that needed rebuilding. They de-dagged the lot, sorted the rollers and welded the chute up like new. Truck came back looking and running better than I expected, and it was done when they said it would be. Proper job.
Joe KrasniqiWhat's Included in a De-Dag Service
A de-dag isn't just a quick chip and sweep. We clear the build-up from the whole mixer, inspect what the concrete was hiding, and put you on a 3-month schedule that keeps it that way.
Drum De-Dagging
Hardened concrete stripped from inside the drum and off the fins, back to clean steel.
Chutes & Hoppers Cleared
Main chute, extension chutes and hoppers cleaned so concrete flows the way it should.
External Build-Up Removal
Dags knocked off the barrel, pedestals and chassis so the whole truck stops carting dead weight.
Post-Removal Inspection
Drum, fins, rollers and wear points checked once the build-up is off, so problems are caught early.
Touch-Up & Protection
Bare or damaged spots touched up so the freshly cleaned steel is protected against rust.
3-Month Service Schedule
We book your next de-dag before you leave, so the build-up never gets ahead of you again.
Book your de-dag and we'll have you back carting payload fast.
