Managing Director Pat Fraher is proud to have seen his company grow so rapidly. When Fraher Plant & Tool Hire was founded, he realised that quality and service were the pillars on which the business was to be built and says there are four main factors behind the success of the business.

The Plant & Tool Hire section of the Fraher Group is already well established among contractors and DIY enthusiasts. The company provides a wide range of products at competitive prices and ensures all items are thoroughly checked for safety before they are hired out.

At the construction end of the market is equipment such as Mini Excavators, Dumpers, Sit-on Rollers, Compressors, Generators and Height for Hire Access equipment such as Teleporters. ‘Self-Drive’ Van Hire is also available. Fraher Plant & Tool Hire operates five delivery vehicles ensuring that your plant and equipment arrives when it is needed, avoiding those costly delays.
