Hiring plant in Sandton
Space, not size, is usually the problem on Sandton sites. Jobs include basements for office and apartment towers, swimming pools and extensions on big suburban stands, and service trenches in busy streets, so mini excavators, skid steers and compact TLBs are popular, with tippers timed to load and leave quickly. Underfoot is weathered Johannesburg granite with collapsible sandy soil and boulders, which means breaker attachments and lateral support for deep cuts are common requirements. Storms between October and March can fill a basement in an afternoon, making a pump a sensible extra. Traffic around Rivonia Road and the M1 is heavy, so delivery times are agreed in advance.
Typical TLB hire requests in the area come from:
- Shopping centres, offices and schools: trenching for services, kerb lines and light earthworks around offices, schools and clinics
- House plots and renovations: digging strip footings, pool holes and drain trenches, then backfilling and levelling the plot
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: stormwater trenches, culvert excavations and loading material for road and pipeline works
- Housing estates and townships: service trenches for water, sewer and electricity across new stands and internal roads
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: digging footings and cable trenches and clearing spoil around warehouse and factory sites
