Popular Tools and Equipment for Hire in Sheffield - 2016/17

Here we feature a selection of some of the most popular items of equipment and power tools that customers are choosing to hire in Sheffield as well as Chesterfield, Dinnington, Dronfield, Mansfield, Rotherham, and Worksop. 

Always in-demand during the colder months of October through to February are lpg powered gas space heaters. 

Running off propane bottled gas these are economical to run as well as being very efficient at providing heat for workshops, warehouses and areas in cold factories. 

When it comes to looking at what is currently popular with business as well domestic customers that are hiring equipment, the range of products is quite large....

It seems that the service of equipment and tool hire is very buoyant and especially when it comes to certain category types of equipment.   

Building and construction equipment seems to be really in-demand and especially products such as the 8m Bumpa Hoist (used for transporting roofing tiles and sales up to roof level on buildings), the heavy duty concrete breaker, vibrating compactor plates, and petrol driven vibrating concrete pokers. 

Cement mixers are also very much in-demand as are acrow props and herras fencing. 

With regards to petrol driven items of construction equipment the well known petrol disc cutter never seems to go out of fashion! The humble Stihl saw is always needed by landscapers, builders, and home owners that need a robust tool for the cutting of stone and concrete. 

Diamond Floor Saw - this is an item of construction equipment that is becoming more and more popular, being used for the cutting of asphalt and concrete at ground level. The blade operates in a vertical position and is a much more preferred option to using a heavy duty breaker in certain environments. 

For users that are carrying out the repairs and upgrade to central heating systems the electric pipe freezer machine is a handy item of equipment to have to-hand. It allows the user to carry out work on pipework without the need of having to drain the central heating system down, saving hours of time as well as potentially labour charges by a plumber or central heating engineer. 

Electric core drills are another tool that is popular with plumbers (as well as electricians) being the tool of choice for boring large diameter holes in walls for the fitting of extractor fans and waste pipes. Instead of hammering their way through brick walls a core drill is commonly used with a diamond edged core bit, this steadily drills through the wall leaving a clean finish ready for accepting the pipework or fan ducting. 

Kitchen worktop jig and routing machine - this particular tool combination has surprised us as regards just how popular it has been in 2016. 

Private homeowners as well as joiners and general trades people must be must fitting more kitchens themselves. The worktop jig is used for cutting kitchen worktops in a way that leaves a clean joint without the need to use a jointing or edging strip. The joint is cut with an electric 1/2" router tool that uses a revolving cutter bit like a spindle cutter. 

The accurate cut is made possible by the work-top jig and a specific (30mm) size of guide bush along with a few clamps that keeps everything aligned correctly.

It is simple and straight forward to hire a sds hammer drill in Sheffield. 

One of these power drills is capable of drilling holes in very hard bricks, stone, and concrete that may be present in your property. If you are having difficulty in drilling a hole to run a length of pipe or maybe some wiring with a conventional percussion hammer drill, then you need to use one of these tools instead! 

The same applies if your struggling to drill a hole in a wall to insert a particular type of fastener, such as a wall fixing for mounting an item of furniture or maybe just a shelf or mirror that you have purchased from B&Q or the Ikea store in Sheffield?

If you own a "conventional" hammer drill (or maybe a basic DIY type drill such as a Black & Decker or a DIY Bosch Drill) then you might need something a little more powerful, and that is where an sds drill comes into play.  

How to drill a hole in hard brickwork:

This is a question that comes up time and time again, not only by private homeowners that are carrying out a DIY or home improvement job, but by professional trades people too! 

In some cases all that is needed is a new good quality drill bit such as those sold under the brand names of Armeg, Bosch, Dewalt, Makita, or Toolpak - but in a lot of instances it is the type of hammer drill being used that is the real problem. 

Most homeowners in the UK own an electric or cordless drill of one make or another, and only use it once in a while, perhaps for building some flat pack furniture up, for installing some shelves, an outdoor security light, running a tv aerial cable, or a similar job.

A good number of diy quality drills are fully capable of drilling holes into "modern" bricks as long as they have a hammer action, but difficulties arise if the bricks are hard or if it's concrete that needs the hole drilling into. 

The solution to the problem of how to drill a hole in hard brickwork is to use a more powerful hammer drill, and the machine to choose is an sds drill for holes typically up to around 24/26mm in diameter (or a sds max hammer drill if larger diameter holes around 26mm to 50mm are needed).  

All sds plus and sds max hammer drills are capable of drilling a hole in hard brick work including engineering bricks, facia bricks, and stone block work. Their powerful hammer action mechanisms drives the drill bit that is fitted through hard bricks in a way that a conventional drill will not touch! 

SDS Drill Hire for Sheffield Builders:

A large number of local builders in Sheffield (as well as other trades) regularly need the use of a sds plus or sds max hammer drill. 

As well as being able to cope with the difficult job of drilling holes in hard concrete and all types of bricks, one of these tools also allows for a productive way of working. 

They drill far faster than most other types of electric drilling machines, and especially when fitted with a new sharp sds drill bit. 

If you are a local builder that carries work out in Sheffield (or maybe in nearby Chesterfield, Dinnington, Dronfield, Eckington, Halfway, Killamarsh, or Rotherham) then you can obtain a cost effective service on the rental of these hammer drills by using our featured tool hire company.
