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 TLB hire requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: general cleanup, drain trenches and loading spillage around plant areas and workshops
- Housing estates and townships: service trenches for water, sewer and electricity across new stands and internal roads
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: stormwater trenches, culvert excavations and loading material for road and pipeline works
- Farms, dams and game lodges: digging pipe trenches, cleaning furrows and fixing farm roads and small earth dams
- House plots and renovations: digging strip footings, pool holes and drain trenches, then backfilling and levelling the plot
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: trenching for services, kerb lines and light earthworks around offices, schools and clinics
