About Emergency Construction Hire

The UK emergency hire and supply directory for builders, landscapers, groundworkers and trades who need urgent plant, equipment, tools and materials outside normal working hours.

What We Do

Emergency Construction Hire helps trades and construction teams find urgent plant, equipment, tools and materials from suppliers who answer evenings, weekends and bank holidays. When the job is stopped because you need a digger, a wacker plate, concrete, tarmac or a skip — and normal suppliers are shut — we help you find someone who is open.

Out-of-Hours

Suppliers open evenings, weekends and bank holidays when others are closed.
