GENERAL PLANT HIRE

Our comprehensive plant hire service provides access to modern, well-maintained machinery including excavators with GPS 3D control, bulldozers, rock breakers, Volvo dump trucks, and specialised equipment for earthworks, demolition, and drainage projects. All equipment comes with fully trained, experienced operators who prioritise safety and efficiency. Available for short-term hire or extended contracts, we deliver reliable, cost-effective solutions for projects of any scale.

SELF-DRIVE HIRE

Our self-drive hire service, operating as K Plant Rentals, provides an extensive range of equipment available for hire for experienced operators who prefer to handle their own equipment. From excavators and bulldozers to specialised earthmoving and construction machinery, all equipment is thoroughly maintained to the highest standards and available for daily, weekly, or long-term hire. Perfect for contractors and experienced operators who need reliable machinery without the additional cost of an operator, our self-drive option provides maximum flexibility and cost-effectiveness for your project requirements.

Our civil engineering division specialises in road construction and utility installation, with particular expertise in pipeline projects for drainage systems, water mains, gas networks, ESB electrical services, and telecommunications. Using advanced GPS 3D control technology, we handle everything from excavation and precise grading through to final reinstatement. Our comprehensive approach encompasses storm water management, foul drainage systems, pumping stations, and utility ducting, delivering complete infrastructure solutions that meet engineering standards whilst maintaining our commitment to on-time, on-budget project delivery.
