Frequently Asked Questions

What does wet hire mean?

The term ‘wet hire’ is associated with leasing or renting out work equipment. It is when an operator is provided by your equipment hire company. On the other hand, ‘dry hire’ is when you rent the equipment only and have your own operator, either hired separately or part of your own team.

What is curing?

After it has been placed, fresh concrete needs to cure. This involves protecting the concrete from evaporation, as well as maintaining its temperature at around 23°C. Keeping the cement suitably hydrated at this temperature allows it to attain maximum strength. The process takes roughly one week.

What is a grader?

A grader is a machine that creates a flat surface with the use of a wide blade. The height and angle of this blade can be adjusted to attain a specific surface grade. Because of this, graders are commonly used in the preparation and construction of dirt, gravel and paved roads.
