Defender-mounted access platform hire for trades and homeowners alike, and landscaping & property maintenance to keep grounds and buildings in good order.

The rates below cover hire of the platform and a qualified operator only — access, not labour. If you'd like Rugged Reach to carry out the work itself, that's quoted separately.
Platform & operator only, including travel within 30 miles and all costs. Covers safe operation of the platform — not the work carried out from it.
Our minimum charge for shorter jobs that don't need a full day of platform hire.
Want Rugged Reach to do the job itself — landscaping, tree work or a specialist task — rather than just operate the platform? That's quoted individually.
Outside our usual 30-mile travel radius? Just mention your location when you get in touch and we'll confirm the rate.
Alongside our access platform work, we offer a full landscaping and property maintenance service — ideal for keeping gardens, grounds and rural properties looking their best all year round.
Regular hedge trimming and shaping to keep boundaries and greenery neat and under control.
Tree work including pruning and general upkeep to keep trees healthy, tidy and safe.
Clearing blocked gutters and downpipes to keep water flowing away from the property.
General property upkeep and odd jobs to keep rural and residential properties in good shape.
Our platform offers a 14m working height and 7m outreach, giving safe elevated access for a wide range of jobs.
£350 per day for the platform and operator, including travel within 30 miles and all costs — no hidden extras. This rate covers operating the platform only; if you'd like us to carry out the work itself rather than just provide access, that's quoted separately. There's a minimum half-day charge of £180 for shorter jobs.
