The Cost Savings of a Laser-Guided Concrete Screed

This blog post explores cost savings for concrete contractors utilizing laser-guided concrete screeds.

Laser-guided concrete screeds enhance job efficiency and reduce labor costs by improving the quality of work and shortening job time. By investing in a laser-guided concrete screed, a concrete contractor will increase profitability and production.

Laser-guided screed machines don’t eliminate jobs for concrete workers; they make the work process faster and more flexible. Instead of requiring all laborers to start at 3-4 a.m., using a screed machine allows for staggered start times, which means workers can begin their shifts at different times. This flexibility helps contractors avoid paying overtime and reduces overall labor costs.

Laser-guided screeds come in a broad range of prices; there is one to fit each contractor’s budget. For more details or a quote, please contact a Ligchine® representative. By acquiring a laser-guided screed, a contractor can bid on larger projects, making the machine a worthwhile investment with a quick return due to the increased capacity for handling bigger jobs.

Ligchine offers a range of laser-guided concrete screed machines tailored to meet the specific needs of concrete contractors. Their top-of-the-line model is the SCREEDSAVER ULTRA PLUS®, which boasts a 20-foot boom reach and a 14-foot screed head.
