Plant & Equipment Hire, Site Clearing & Civil Contracting

Most of our work starts with a machine on site, and most of our quotes are for plant hire. Elchom Group hires out its own fleet and brings in vetted partner machines when a job needs more than we have in the yard. You get one quote and one invoice, whether the job needs one TLB or four different machines.

Future of Commercial Grounds Maintenance, Instant Lawns & Specialized Tree Felling

Our landscaping division is the third arm of Elchom Group. It runs on the same logic as the plant hire side: we do the physical work, on time, to your site’s specifications. We install, repair, maintain and cut. We do not do design work. If you already have a plan or a specification, we build it and keep it running.

  • Instant Lawn Installation: Commercial and residential instant lawns in Kikuyu, LM and Evergreen. Full soil
  • preparation, weed eradication and levelling before a single roll is laid. Covers Johannesburg and Pretoria.
  • Automated Irrigation Systems: New system installations for lawns, beds and larger grounds. Booster pumps and
    smart controllers. Leak detection and solenoid repairs on existing systems.
  • Scheduled Grounds Maintenance Contracts: Weekly, bi-weekly or monthly contracts for office parks, townhouse
    complexes, estates and industrial facilities in Sandton, Midrand, Randburg, Alberton and Pretoria East. This is the
    work that keeps a property presentable between plant jobs and renovations.
  • Specialized Tree Felling & Tree Removal: Controlled dismantling in confined spaces, near walls and near cables.
    Root clearing and stump grinding. Full green-waste haulage, so the site is clean when we leave

Elchom Group installs and maintains. We work to your specification, with no design stage and no extras you did not ask for. For tree felling, lawn and irrigation quotes, call Mike on +27 78 978 6907

Frequently Asked Questions – Services Hub FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Elchom Group’s Services Across Gauteng

Can Elchom Group supply plant hire and civil site works on a single contract?

Yes. Elchom Group acts as primary contractor, so Mike coordinates TLBs, tipper trucks, lowbed mobilization, site establishment (R1,200 flat) and rubble removal (R1,300 per load) under one quote and one invoice. We use our own fleet first and bring in vetted partner machines for anything extra. For a site quote, call Mike on +27 78 978 6907. See Construction & Plant Hire.

How do your plant hire rates compare for short-term vs. multi-day contracts?

The longer you hire, the lower the daily rate. A TLB costs R5,000 to R5,200/day for a short 2-day hire, R3,500/day on a 4-day contract and R3,000/day on a 5-day contract. Lowbed transport is a R5,000 flat rate. All rates exclude VAT, and TLB and compressor rates exclude lowbed delivery to site unless your formal quote says otherwise. Call Mike on +27 78 978 6907 for your exact rate.

What machinery brands does your Alberton-North parts desk support?

Natasha’s parts desk supports Caterpillar (CAT), JCB, Bell Equipment, Case and Wheel Carriers. We supply dismantled genuine OEM spares, new aftermarket GET and wear parts, and send a mobile mechanic when a machine needs repairing on site. Parts start at R25 for ploughbolts and R4,800 for Wheel Carrier back hubs. Call or WhatsApp Natasha on +27 78 170 6110. See Earthmoving Parts & Spares.

How does chemical rock blasting work on urban construction sites?

We use a non-explosive expanding compound. It is placed in drilled holes in the rock and splits it as it expands, with no blast and no flyrock. That makes it suitable for tight trenches, confined spaces and work near live services. The compound costs R950 per box. Natasha supplies the boxes on +27 78 170 6110, and Mike applies the method on site on +27 78 978 6907. See Rock Breaking Services.

What areas across Gauteng do your service teams cover?

We dispatch from our Alberton-North base across Johannesburg, Sandton, Randburg, Midrand, Boksburg, Alberton, the East Rand, Centurion and Pretoria. Parts ship nationally and into SADC. Call Mike on +27 78 978 6907 for plant, civil and landscaping work, or Natasha on +27 78 170 6110 for parts.
