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 tool hire requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: pumps, grinders and drills hired for maintenance shutdowns and plant repairs
- Factories, warehouses and logistics parks: floor saws and grinders hired for joint cutting and preparing warehouse floors
- Roads, pipelines and civil works: floor saws and water pumps hired for cutting asphalt and draining trenches
- Housing estates and townships: floor saws, poker vibrators and pumps hired for slabs and service trenches across many stands
- House plots and renovations: drills, tile cutters and a floor sander hired for a renovation or extension
