Tools can be expensive, we know. Have you considered that it could be cheaper to hire equipment on occasion, rather than buy them outright and have to pay for maintenance and upkeep? Jewson’s range of tool hire items are regularly serviced and don’t sit in storage gathering dust. When you hire with us, you can be confident the tools will withstand whatever your job throws at it. Whether you need simple lifting equipment to work at height, or vehicles such as diggers, Jewson offers flexible tool hire to support your projects.

Plumbing equipment & kits

We have an expert range of plumbing equipment available, to support Edinburgh plumbers working in kitchens, bathrooms, on radiators and other piping systems. We also have a great selection of testing tools designed to check drains, analyse flue gas and test pressure. Bend pipes to fit any system with pipe benders, suitable for copper and steel pipes. Pipe freezing kits are ideal to freeze water while you work so there’s no need to drain systems, or shut off the supply. And for delicate threading work, browse our pipe threaders for easy maintenance and repairs.

Cutting tools & concrete equipment

When working with dense building materials, you need equipment that’s up to the challenge. We have a great range of cutting tools available, to support working with concrete. Hire a disc cutter to cut through sheet metal, ceramic, concrete and more. Use a block splitter to cut uniform stone slabs for your paving projects. Or for concrete preparation, a cement mixer can help you get started. You can even rent equipment to lay concrete floors, such as vibrating screeds, pokers and floats.

Cleaning

Whether you’re a cleaner by profession in Edinburgh, or need some help with clean up after a big job, Jewson can help. Hire industrial cleaning equipment, such as dry and wet vacuum cleaners for intense carpet cleaning. Cleaning doesn’t always come at the end of a project, sometimes it’s the start. Ensure excess moisture is removed from areas to prevent damp, with effective dehumidifers. For stubborn areas, you can’t go wrong with pressure jet washer – simply spray and watch the dirt disappear.

Lifting equipment

Health and safety at work is important to us at Jewson. Which is why we have a wide range of reliable access and lifting equipment available to hire. One of our popular hire items is the useful plasterboard jack lift, allowing you to bring plasterboard sheets up to ceilings and walls without straining yourself. We also hire out steps and ladders in various heights to help you get to the height you need.

Power tools

Hire power tools from a Jewson branch near you in Edinburgh to support a wide range of building jobs. Our offering ranges from versatile items such as drilling equipment, to specialist damp proofing kits. Saws are suitable for carpentry work, including deck building as well as general construction work. And for that long-lasting fix, check out nail guns, framing nailers, powered screwdrivers and more as part of our fixing tools range.
