FAQs

Will it fit through my garden gate?

Often yes — it's a compact machine. Send a photo of the access with your enquiry and we'll confirm before booking.

Is the operator included in the price?

Yes — £403.50 + VAT per day covers machine and NPORS operator. Fuel and transport are quoted separately.

Can it dig footings to Building Control depth?

Yes — typical strip footings around here are about a metre in chalk, well within reach, and the laser keeps the formation level.
