    • Summary of our Current Contracts

We have taken delivery of nine new Caterpillar excavators from Finnings UK as replacement for older machines. These new machines bring our fleet size upto 35 including 24, 20, 14 tonne and 3 - 8 tonne mini excavators.

Dan Danaher said "The Plant hire side of our business has had a very difficult time over the past twelve month. We have had the purchase of this machinery on hold for the last six months, as we needed to wait and see how the market settles. It has not been until recently that we have seen some signs of stabilisation, which has given us the confidence to go ahead with the purchase of this additional machinery. We do have a policy to replace the machinery every three years, however we delayed the purchase of this new equiptment until the market looked like it was going to stabilise."
