Specialised Hire: Survey and Site Safety Equipment
We provide a dual-focus hire service, ensuring that your site is equipped for both precision and protection. Our fleet is maintained to the highest manufacturer standards, ensuring total reliability from the moment it arrives on your site. Whether you are looking to hire a confined space safety kit, a pipe laser, a cobra reel or a rotating laser, you can be sure we can assist. Our local presence ensures we can offer flexible hire terms that adapt to the shifting timelines of modern construction.
Authorised Technical Support and Instrument Calibration in Milton Keynes
The Milton Keynes workshop serves as a vital technical hub for the South Midlands, providing manufacturer-authorised maintenance that keeps complex sites running smoothly. Our highly skilled engineering team focuses on the lifecycle management of your assets, specialising in the precision service, calibration, and repair of Abtech Safety and Globestock Safety confined space systems and davit kits. We understand that in the fast-paced London and Midlands construction sectors, equipment compliance is non-negotiable; we ensure your rescue and retrieval gear meets every stringent legal and safety standard.
Beyond safety critical assets, our technicians possess expert, manufacturer-led training for Spectra Precision lasers, as well as the latest Topcon and Leica geospatial technology. Whether it is a routine annual calibration or a complex repair, we restore your instruments to peak factory performance. Additionally, we are a primary regional centre for the upkeep of Draeger escape sets and MSA portable gas detectors. By prioritising rapid turnaround times, we ensure that contractors from Oxford to Northampton avoid costly site delays, providing the peace of mind that every instrument is fully certified and field-ready.
Leading Topcon and Leica Supplier and Machine Control Experts

Beyond equipment supply, we lead the way in Machine Control expertise. We assist contractors throughout Oxford, Northampton, and the Home Counties in integrating advanced 2D and 3D machine control technology into their plant fleets. This expertise ensures your excavators, dozers, and graders operate with millimetre precision. By adopting these systems, our clients see a significant increase in site productivity, a reduction in fuel consumption, and the elimination of over-excavation.
