Feed Pads

Many sections of New Zealand dairy industry have pushed production per cow to a level which can not easily be obtained from pasture alone or even from pasture plus concentrates fed in the dairy.

Therefore, many dairy farms now feed some form of supplementary forage for all or part of the year. Then, such feeds are used regularly, some type offorage feeding facility or feed pad is often more convenient.

At Dial-A-Do-It Limited, building proper feed pads suited to your requirements is what we also do. We take into consideration many important factors when designing and building your feed pad. Some of them are:

  • Feed pad systems (low/medium/high cost, orientation, Concrete finishes, ..etc.)
  • Feed pad maintenance
  • Using feed pads to cool cows
  • The ideal feed pad

Concrete Laying

Our approach to laying concrete slabs is very structured and measured. To us, we don’t just lay the concrete. Instead, we first go in and assess the site and test the subsoil on which the concrete slab is to laid. This methodology has resulted in every concrete laying job we do being one that stands the test of weather, environment, and time.

Our structured and measured approach to concrete laying is based on the following steps we always follow:

  • Tools
  • Site preparation
  • Construction Lines
  • Boxing
  • Control Joints
  • Weather Check
  • Spreading Concrete
  • Screeding
  • Finishing Touches
  • Protection
  • Safety
