Rock Breaker Hire

When the bucket bounces off rock or an old slab, you need a hammer. We fit a hydraulic hammer sized to the excavator, so a small breaker goes on the 1T and 1.7T for tight backyard jobs and a heavier one goes on the 5.5T and 14.5T for bigger rock and concrete.

Broken rock and concrete are heavy. A mini dumper hired with the excavator carries it to the skip bin.

Auger Hire for Post Holes and Piers

An auger drive on an excavator drills straight, even holes much faster than a hand held post hole digger. Use it for fence posts, pier footings, retaining wall posts and stump holes. Each auger comes with one drill, matched to the machine.

Which Machine Do I Need?

Start with the access and the size of the job, then add the attachment. The 1.7T mini excavator suits most backyard jobs and takes a hammer, auger and sieve bucket. The 3.5T excavator adds the rock grab and more power for bigger rock. See all our mini excavator hire options.

Attachment Hire for Your Own Excavator

Already have an excavator? You can hire just the attachment. Tell us the make and size of your machine and we will confirm which hammer, auger, rock grab or sieve bucket fits it and the daily rate.

How Hire Works

  1. Tell us the job, the site address, your dates and the attachment you need, online, by phone or on WhatsApp.
  2. We confirm the machine and attachment are free and quote delivery for your site.
  3. We deliver the excavator with the attachment.

Who This Is Not For

We only dry hire. You or your crew run the machine. If you need an operator to do the work for you, we are not the right fit.
