Breaking and Drilling - FAQs

What’s the difference between a rotary drill and a hammer drill?

A rotary drill spins without impact and is suitable for softer materials or when precision is important. A hammer drill adds force, making it ideal for getting through masonry, concrete, and tougher substrates.

Can I hire a core drill for reinforced concrete?

We offer core drills and rigs designed for drilling reinforced concrete. We also supply diamond core bits and stabilising accessories, so you get a clean finish.

Do I need special training to use these tools?

While most basic tool operation is not necessarily difficult, we recommend you are familiar with safe practices for working with drill torque, dust extraction, and masonry drilling so as not to risk damage. Our tools come with advice and instruction.

Are bits and accessories included?

We provide a selection of bits, chisels, adapters, and consumables. But let us know in advance if you need specific diameters or types, and we’ll add them to your hire.

How long can I hire a drill or breaker?

We offer flexible hire terms that fit around your project. You can hire our breaking and drilling equipment on a daily, weekly, or longer. Just tell us what you need, and we’ll work out a plan that fits.
