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 roller hire requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: compacting haul road repairs, stockpile pads and plant platforms at a mine or quarry
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: rolling thick fill platforms and yard layers to specified density for a warehouse floor
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: compacting subgrade, subbase and base layers behind a grader and water truck on road works
- Housing estates and townships: compacting internal roads, services trench backfill and stand platforms on a new township
- House plots and renovations: rolling a driveway base or garage platform with a pedestrian or small ride-on roller
