We have trained operatives that can excavate and dig to your projects requirements. Experts in the supply of both man and machine hire.
Digger & driver
You can hire both a mini digger and a driver. With this service, we are able to provide a large list of services. You hire and project manage – we dig!
Micro digger
Micro diggers are great for fitting into areas with restricted access. They’re perfect for garden clearance, digging ponds and digging foundations.
1.5 tonne digger
We hire out state of the art Kubota mini diggers. You can reach a depth of 2.2m and they’re ideal for digging, heavy lifting and much more.
3 tonne digger
Offering all the advantages of a 1.5 tonne, the 3 tonne has added weight and power, increasing stability, work rate and deeper depths of digging.
5 tonne digger
A 5 tonne excavator gives you more muscle than a 3 tonne machine. You get better stability on uneven ground, faster work rates, and can dig deeper trenches. Perfect when your project needs that extra power.
6 tonne digger
A 6 tonne excavator handles the jobs where a 5 tonne falls short. You get serious digging power for deeper foundations, better reach for awkward spots, and the weight to tackle compacted ground. Built for contractors who need reliability on bigger sites.
8 tonne Digger
An 8 tonne excavator means business. You get the power to shift serious amounts of earth, dig foundations for larger builds, and handle heavy-duty groundwork that smaller machines can’t touch. When your project demands real strength, this is your machine.
13 Tonne Digger
A 13 tonne excavator is the heavyweight of the fleet. You get maximum digging force for major earthworks, the reach to clear wide drainage systems, and enough power to break through the toughest ground conditions. When smaller machines simply won’t cut it, this delivers.
