Driveway Contractors in Crawley | The Benefits of Using an Operated Digger Hire Service

There are different ways to use an operated digger hire service. If you need to use plant to lay tarmac driveways, garden patios in block paving, or a resin-bound surface, a digger will play an important role in preparing the sub-base. For those in need of bulk excavation and groundworks, or surface dressing, then a wider range of plant and machinery could come into play. Wherever you are in the Crawley area, and whether you need help with new driveways or construction projects, we are always here to help and assist you.

EA Diggers is a company that combines the services of driveway contractors and surfacing contractors to bring you definitive one-stop solutions.

This page looks at the subject of operated digger hire in more detail and at the benefits we can bring to your domestic or commercial project. With a central location in Billingshurst, we cover all parts of London, Kent, Surrey and West Sussex, and Crawley just happens to be an important area for our team.

Cost-Effective

Buying equipment for bulk excavation work requires major investment and for a business that only needs occasional access to a digger, hire works out to be a more cost-effective alternative to owning outright. If you work in the construction sector, lay block paving or tarmac driveways, or have a surface dressing project that needs part of an existing road to be uplifted, operated digger hire will save you money until capital investment becomes essential.

We offer competitive day rates and can deliver responsive services to those in Crawley who may need to hire a digger and a trained operator urgently.

Access to Equipment

Whether you plan to use EA Diggers in the capacity of driveway contractors or surfacing contractors, you will never need to worry about us only having a limited amount of plant available. We source, hire and dispatch machinery from a trusted supplier network so, if you want to lay a new driveway, or if you are a small business that needs us to enable a site by clearing it, undertaking soft strip-outs and moving earth, we’ll find something to suit the specification.

We can source diggers in a variety of weights, and with all attachments, so that you can start constructing in Crawley without any unnecessary delays.

No Storage Needed

Choose EA Diggers for operated digger hire and you won’t need to find a storage space for keeping plant safe when it isn’t in use. You’ll also save on the cost of insuring stored equipment and won’t spend half the night awake wondering how you’ll be able to lay block paving or tarmac driveways, or undertake a bulk excavation or surface dressing project, if the plant and machinery you need to do the job has mysteriously vanished while in storage.

£70m worth of plant is stolen from sites and storage facilities in Crawley and the UK every year. Hiring a digger and operator affords total peace of mind.

No Depreciation

Driveway contractors and surfacing contractors will buy machinery because they need it on most projects. Unfortunately, the moment plant leaves the showroom, it has already started to depreciate in terms of resale value. With sustained use and day-to-day wear, your new digger will soon be just another responsibility that will take a huge bite out of your profits. You can lay a new driveway or prepare a site by hiring a digger with a trained operator instead.

We have Crawley covered with a flexible hire service that is designed to the specification of your project, its timescale, and how much you wish to spend.
