March has been another incredible month for our GAP Giving initiative! Staying true to our commitment, we continue to donate 0.5% of our company’s profits to charities across the UK, carefully chosen by our GAP Team. We're proud to support the communities where we operate and make a meaningful impact through our giving efforts.

Every year, trench collapses pose serious risks to construction workers, making excavation safety a top priority. Whether you're carrying out repairs, installations, or large-scale construction work, choosing the right protective system can mean the difference between a secure site and a disaster. At GAP Hire Solutions, our Trenching & Shoring division provides industry-leading safety solutions, complete with user guides, technical information, and trench support tools to ensure excavation safety. In this blog, we’ll break down the key differences between shoring and shielding and help you determine which solution best suits your trenching project.

Can construction be both powerful and planet-friendly? At GAP Hire Solutions, we’re proving that it can! The industry has long relied on diesel-powered machines, but as sustainability takes centre stage, businesses are searching for greener alternatives. At GAP, we’re committed to offering a range of innovative and sustainable plant hire options that help businesses reduce emissions, improve efficiency, and stay ahead of tightening regulations.

GAP Hire Solutions, the UK’s largest independent hire company, is proud to announce a five-year partnership with WaterAid to help deliver clean water, sanitation, and hygiene to communities in need worldwide.
