Hiring plant in Kathu
Iron ore built Kathu, and plant hire here leans heavily toward large mining contracts, solar plants, haul roads and housing for mine staff. Excavators, dozers, dump trucks, graders and water bowsers dominate, while TLBs and tippers handle services and housing in town, Sishen and Dingleton. Ground is typically Kalahari sand over hard calcrete and banded ironstone, so tracked machines travel well on the surface and rippers or breakers deal with what lies beneath. The little rain that falls arrives in summer storms, mostly between January and April. Kimberley and Upington are both a long haul away, so transport and standing time form a big part of every quote.
Typical jackhammer hire requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: breaking oversize rock, concrete spillage and old footings around process plants
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: breaking out worn factory floors and old machine bases before new plinths are cast
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: pneumatic breakers opening road surfaces and pavements for pipe and cable repairs
- Housing estates and townships: trimming kerbs, breaking out bad concrete and cutting into slabs for service connections
- House plots and renovations: breaking an old driveway, bathroom floor or garden path before a renovation
