Hiring plant in Benoni

Benoni has lakeside suburbs, agricultural holdings, industrial land in Benoni South and large housing projects toward Daveyton and Etwatwa. Hires range from a single TLB for a pool or foundation to graders and rollers for township roads. Most sites sit on Karoo shale and mudstone that weathers to expansive clay, so footings are taken deeper and wet clay is difficult to compact, while dolerite sills sometimes need a breaker. Near the old gold belt, undermining must also be ruled out. Heavy summer storms from October to March raise water levels around the pans, which affects nearby trenches. The N12 and R21 give quick access across the East Rand.
