Electrical Trenching
Equipment Hire
Electrical trenching is a strong fit for our compact excavators. Sparkies can hire the machine for conduit, sub-mains, underground power, data and lighting runs, then add a leg rammer for backfill compaction. Delivery and collection can be coordinated directly with the job site.

Common Electrical Trenching Tasks
Ground Conditions & Advice
For compacted clay or longer/deeper service runs, step up to the 2T. For tight residential access, the 1T or 1.7T is usually the better fit.

Daily and weekly hire is available, with discounted long-hire pricing on selected machinery from 7 days. We can deliver and collect from site, with selected machines prepared to site requirements including relevant high-vis markings, amber beacons/flashing lights and service history documentation.
