Same or Next-Day Delivery
Hand-digging a 50-metre cable run takes a day. A trencher cuts it in an hour. If you are looking for a trencher hire near me in Brighton, call 01273 596 979.
What Should You Check Before Hiring a Trencher?
Consider the trench width, depth, ground type, access and underground services. South Downs chalk is hard, so you may need a rock chain. Coastal deposits around Shoreham are softer but can flood the trench. Clay-with-flints on the Downs becomes heavy when wet.
Call 01273 596 979 and describe your ground.

What should I check before hiring a trencher?
Before trenching begins, you need to consider the required trench width and depth, the type of ground, available access and whether underground cables, pipes or other services may cross the proposed route. National Grid’s practical safe-digging guidance recommends obtaining utility plans, locating buried services and clearly marking them before work starts. Give Coppard’s Brighton team the proposed trench dimensions, route and site conditions, and they can recommend suitable trenching equipment and arrange an operator where required.
