Hiring plant in Kimberley
Kimberley hires plant for diamond reprocessing, municipal infrastructure, housing in Galeshewe and surrounding areas, and farms along the Vaal and Riet rivers. Excavators, TLBs, graders and rollers are the most common machines. Thin soils over calcrete, Karoo shale and dolerite mean rock is often close to the surface, so a breaker or ripper is frequently needed for trenches and footings, and old mine areas and kimberlite pipes call for careful site investigation. Rainfall is low and comes mostly in summer thunderstorms between November and March, when gravel roads wash out. The N12 and N8 give good access, but the distances to other towns are long.
Typical grader hire requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: maintaining haul roads, clearing spillage and keeping drainage open around a mine or quarry
- Housing estates and townships: trimming internal estate roads and stand platforms to level before kerbs and paving go in
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: spreading, mixing and trimming gravel and base layers and cutting side drains on road works
- Farms, dams and game lodges: blading farm roads, cutting contour drains and clearing firebreaks before the dry winter
- House plots and renovations: levelling a large residential stand and shaping a long gravel driveway before paving
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: spreading and trimming base layers for a shopping centre parking area and access roads
