Trade categories: Plant hire — excavators, JCB, cranes
Catchment: Mombasa, Kilifi, Kwale / Diani
Plant on coastal sites: idle machines, unsafe ops, and the operator nobody checked
The excavator idled six days — day rate still ran. Worse: the operator had no induction and hit the shoring on day two.
Tower crane hire: wind stops, still standing charges, no lift plan
Gust lock for two days — hire continued, lift plan expired.
Site logistics: queues at gate, damaged materials, wrong laydown
Steel offloaded in mud — corrosion before fix. Queue cost more than haul rate.
For suppliers & trades
Plant hire & site logistics — coast catchment
JCB, crane, and lorry operators: coastal developers need mobilisation-ready plant with clear day/week rates.
