Frequently Asked Questions
What size generator do I need for my site?
The generator size you need depends on the total wattage of the equipment you plan to run. Start by listing the power requirements of all tools and devices you’ll be using simultaneously. It's best to choose a generator with slightly more capacity than your calculated total to allow for startup surges and prevent overload. For construction sites, backup power or events, larger diesel models are often more suitable. If unsure, ask your hire provider for assistance with sizing based on your job needs.
Are lighting towers suitable for overnight use?
Yes, lighting towers are designed for extended use and are commonly hired for night work, 24-hour construction, or outdoor events. They are fuel-efficient, weather-resistant and offer powerful, wide-area illumination. Most models include adjustable mast heights and directional lighting heads for precise setup. They can operate for hours on a single tank and are often fitted with automatic shut-off features for convenience and safety.
What types of welding machines can be hired?
You can typically hire arc welders, MIG welders, TIG welders, and multi-process machines, depending on the job requirements. These machines are suitable for general metal fabrication, repairs, structural welding, and on-site work where portability and reliability are essential. Some units come with accessories like leads, clamps, helmets and trolleys to make setup easier. Always check the duty cycle and power requirements before selecting a model to ensure it matches your project specs.
