Operated Plant Hire Services

LG Groundworks offers a comprehensive range of heavy machinery for hire with experienced, accredited operators. We understand that on a busy construction site, reliability is everything. That is why our fleet is meticulously maintained and updated regularly to ensure zero downtime.

We specialize in Operated Hire, meaning every machine comes with a qualified driver (CPCS/NPORS). This ensures safety compliance, efficiency, and expert handling of complex tasks such as footing excavation, levelling, and demolition.

Whether you need a micro digger for a tight garden access project or a 20-tonne excavator for bulk earthmoving, we have the right machine for the job.

Machinery Available

  • Micro Diggers (0.8T - Doorway Access)
  • Mini Excavators (1.5T - 3T)
  • Midi Excavators (5T - 8T)
  • Large Excavators (13T - 20T)
  • Dumpers (1T High Tip to 9T)
  • Ride-on Rollers & Compaction
  • Hydraulic Breaker Attachments
  • Grab Lorries & Muck Away

Why Choose Operated Hire?

Hiring a machine with an operator removes the stress of liability, insurance, and skill gaps. Our operators are groundworks expertsโ€”they don't just drive the machine; they understand levels, drainage falls, and safety protocols, actively contributing to the success of your project.

Plant Hire FAQs

Machines are delivered full of fuel (white diesel/HVO). We can arrange refuelling for longer hires, or you can refill it on-site. Charges apply if returned empty.

For Operated Hire, the machine is covered under our insurance while our driver is operating it. This is a major benefit compared to self-drive hire, where you are liable for the equipment.

We cover the whole of Surrey, South London, and parts of Kent and Sussex. Contact us with your postcode for a delivery quote.
