Tools and Plant Hire for DIY in County Durham & Surrounding Areas

Tool Hire in County Durham

If you’re looking for Tool Hire in County Durham, you’ve come to the right place. Around here, whether you’re fixing up your gaff in Durham city or sprucing up the garden down in Bishop Auckland, hiring tools makes a whole lot more sense than shelling out for something you’ll only use once. With a rich mix of home improvement, building, landscaping, and commercial maintenance projects buzzing about, it’s no surprise that locals prefer the clever option of tool hire over buying.

Wide Range of Tools Available

At Anything for Hire, we’ve got the lot — from power tools and hand tools to access equipment and garden tools. Whether you need drills, saws, or sanders for a quick job, or heavy-duty scaffolding towers, cement mixers, and floor compactors for a proper build, we’ve got you covered. Our stock includes:

  • Power tool hire — drills, sanders, and electric saws
  • Garden tool hire — strimmers, pressure washers, and hedge trimmers
  • Construction tool hire — cement mixers, generators, and compactors
  • Access equipment — scaffolding towers and ladders
  • Hand tools — spanners, hammers, and wiring kits

Why Hire Beats Buying Every Time

Nobody wants to be stuck with tools gathering dust or the hassle of upkeep. Hiring tools from a local outfit means you get top-quality, well-maintained gear without the faff of storage or servicing. It’s perfect for short-term jobs — whether you’re giving the kitchen a makeover or sorting out the garden fence. Plus, it’s a proper money-saver compared to buying new, especially if you only need something for a day or a weekend.

Trust and Quality Assured

All our tools go through regular inspections, including PAT testing, to make sure they’re safe and tip-top for your use. We’re not just here to chuck you a drill and wish you luck — our friendly customer support team is on hand with expert advice, transparent pricing, and any safety guidance you might need. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned pro, you can trust us to sort you out right.

Flexible Hire Options and Support

We get that not everyone works on the same schedule, so we offer flexible hire periods to fit your plans — daily, weekend, or weekly rentals. Need it delivered to your doorstep in Durham, or perhaps over in Gateshead or Sunderland? No bother, we cover the lot, including nearby areas like Tyne and Wear, Northumberland, North Yorkshire, Cumbria, and West Yorkshire. We also provide collection services and handy user guides or tool demonstrations if you want to get the most out of your hire.

Safety Equipment

Alongside your tool hire, you can also pick up safety gear such as gloves, goggles, and hi-vis vests — because a safe job’s a good job, as we say around here.

Who Uses Our Tool Hire?

Our customers range far and wide — from homeowners tackling a weekend DIY spruce-up, local tradespeople like electricians, plumbers, and decorators, to builders and landscapers working on larger commercial projects. Even event setup teams and maintenance crews rely on our equipment to get the job done without a hitch.

Plant and Equipment Hire for Larger Projects

For bigger jobs, we also offer plant hire options such as mini diggers, dumpers, access platforms, small generators, and compact loaders. Whether you’re digging foundations in Chester-le-Street or managing a commercial build in Darlington, our range caters to every scale of work.

Tips for Choosing Tools for Your Project

Not quite sure what you need? Think about the job at hand. If you’re sanding down floors before painting, a floor sander paired with a good vacuum will save you hours. For garden projects, combine a strimmer with a pressure washer to tidy up hedges and paths. And if plumbing’s your thing, electric tool hire for pipe cutters and drills makes all the difference. Our team can help put together the right kit to get you started.
