If you are considering doing a home improvement project yourself, or need to hire equipment for any reason, equipment hire professionals are able to help you with all aspects – from choosing the right equipment to safety requirements. Following are some examples of equipment that can be hired:

• scaffolding
• skip bins
• power tools
• hand tools
• lifting equipment
• air compressors
• welders
• lights
• plumbing equipment
• pressure cleaners and other cleaning equipment
• pumps
• generators

Equipment hire professionals cater to the building trade as well as the home handyman so they are able to give you advice on how to operate the equipment, what equipment is best suited to the project that you are going to undertake, and even give you a few tips on how to get a professional finish to your work. The professional should deliver and pick up the equipment if necessary, and one good example of this is if you are hiring skip bins or scaffolding. In the case of scaffolding, ask your professional if they will construct it for you.

Due to safety requirements, equipment hire professionals keep their equipment in good condition through regular maintenance and safety checks to test that the components are working correctly. The hire professionals will also instruct you on the equipment’s safety features and how to correctly operate it. A safety information sheet should be provided and the hire professional will be available should extra help be required.
