Services from SDH Plant Hire

We have mini diggers for hire throughout Edinburgh and the Scottish borders. Our Bobcat e10 mini excavator provides a powerful yet convenient option for carrying out all kinds of small excavations, gardening projects and moving loads. With retracted tracks and slim dimensions, our mini diggers can fit through doorways down to 700m. Extremely practical pieces of equipment.

To help your project run smoothly, we can operate the digger you hire for you. All of our operators are fully trained and equipped to maintain and run our equipment. If you’re a confident driver on your own, our self-drive options are ideal.

All aspects of groundwork

With many years of experience and enthusiasm, we are more than well-equipped to assist with all aspects of groundworks.

From foundations to trenching and drainage construction, we can do it all.

Creating strong foundations is our speciality. Our employment of domestic and commercial foundations involves footings, slab laying, concreting, drainage and structural steel work. Popular materials for our foundations include concrete, stone, brick or even preservative-treated lumber.

We handle everything from site clearance and land reclamation, to surface removal and topsoil stripping. Need cut and fill work doing? What about landscaping works, perhaps a pool? Here at SDH, our experience extends to all these aspects of excavation.

We can break down, remove and dismantle structures of varying sizes – no job is too big or too small for us to handle. Our pre-planned and controlled methods are completely safe.

Whether you require the installation of a septic tank or a more simple rainwater soakaway – with ultra-modern drainage methods at our disposal, you will be in capable, reliable hands with us.

We properly manage all construction work we carry out, to preserve not only your safety but the integrity of the surrounding environmental, aesthetic and social landscape.

We collect and dispose of a wide variety of garden refuse. Even construction debris can be tidied away by our specialist team. Loose branches, leaves, lawn mowers, dismantled sheds and more can all be handled by SDH.
