Working in partnership with Speedy Hire, we provide a wide range of trade tool hire options, from gardening equipment for landscaping jobs to builder's tools. Plus access equipment so you and your team have the suitable ladders to work safely and comply with the 2005 Work at Heights Regulations. All our trade tools are checked by Speedy before they are sent out for hire and adhere to safety regulations, plus our flexible hire periods and delivery direct to your event or building site help project management on your site just a little bit easier. 

We have a range of tools available for all your projects or emergency situations. Removing excess water from building sites is quick with our water pumps, they can clear foundations, building and basements of water, even when it has sand and dirt in. Our puddle pumps can be hired for short weekend periods or on a weekly basis. Having a dehumidifier on site when decorating can speed up the drying time of concrete, plaster and paint, or they can be used to remove excess moisture to help prevent mould. 

Hiring tools is both cost-effective and convenient with TradePoint tool hire, as you can be confident you are hiring reliable and high-quality site equipment. You can book your tool hire online or at a TradePoint counter in one of our 300 B&Q stores nationwide.

*B&Q will match the price for Tool Hire when hired from a B&Q store against those from HSS, Travis Perkins & Jewsons. The products must be of the same specification and perform the same function. You will need to provide us with evidence of the competitor’s price in order that our colleagues can check the price at the point you place your order in store. Price match is against the total hire price of the tool, including VAT, delivery and collection and excludes consumables, deposits, accessories and/ or safety equipment (whether required or not). The competitors’ products must be available at the lower price for the same period of hire that the products are being hired from us. We will need to be able to confirm that they are available on the dates required and that they are available at that price to the general public, or where a trade account is required the price must be generally available to all trade members holding an account with that competitor. Price match only applies when hiring products from a B&Q store and not from diy.com or TradePoint.co.uk. We do not price match against competitors’ promotions/discounted products, offers involving vouchers or discount codes, staff or any other discount cards cannot be used in conjunction with a price match. For Tradepoint Members who have loyalty discount this will apply on top of the total hire price.
