Hiring plant in Potchefstroom
Dolomite is the first thing to plan for when hiring plant in Potchefstroom. Much of the town and district is underlain by it, so student housing, campus upgrades, retail and farm work along the Mooi River all start with a geotechnical report, short open trenches and careful stormwater and pipe detailing to avoid sinkholes. Chert bands and rock pinnacles can need a breaker, and near the river the water table is high enough to require pumps. TLBs, excavators and rollers are the usual hires. Storms between October and March bring most of the rain. The N12 links Potchefstroom to Klerksdorp and Johannesburg, making plant easy to bring in.
Typical plant hire rates requests in the area come from:
- Housing estates and townships: service trenches for water, sewer and electrical, internal roads, stand platforms and stormwater
- Farms, dams and game lodges: earth dams, contour banks, farm roads, bush clearing and loading feed, bales or produce
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: bulk earthworks, basements, parking areas, lifting steel and cladding, and site power
- House plots and renovations: site clearing, foundation trenches, driveways, pools, retaining walls and rubble removal
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: cut and fill, layer works, compaction, culverts, kerbs and pipeline trenches
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: large terraces and platforms, yard paving layer works, loading and lifting in warehouses
