The question is not how much the breaker weighs, but how thick the thing you have to knock down is.
Jackhammer hire in Cagliari
Heavy breaking of screeds, flooring and masonry. We confirm availability during opening hours.

When you need a jackhammer
A breaker is for where a hand chisel cannot reach and an angle grinder is not enough: a screed to take out, flooring to lift, a partition wall to knock down. The weight of the machine is what determines the output, and it has to be chosen for the job: a tool that is too light on thick concrete will not break through and you spend the day bouncing, one that is too heavy on a thin partition does damage beyond the point you wanted. Allow for two things everybody underestimates: the noise, which in a block of flats limits the hours you can work, and the rubble, which takes up far more room than it seemed it would. Message us with what you need to break out and the thickness.

Jackhammer hire FAQs
What hammer weight do I need?
It is chosen on the material and the thickness: on a thin screed a medium model is easier to handle and quicker to the finished result, on thick reinforced concrete you need weight. Message us with what you are breaking out and how thick it is, and we will tell you which size makes sense for your dates.
Does it need mains power or compressed air?
It depends on the model: the electric version plugs into the mains and covers most domestic building work, while the air versions need a suitable compressor. Tell us what you have available on site and we will point you to the simplest solution.
Can I use it in a block of flats?
Technically yes, but the noise and vibration travel through the whole building and there are generally hours to keep to under the building rules. It is worth warning the neighbours first: it is the difference between a quiet week and a complaint.
Do you need different points?
Yes, and the choice changes the job: the chisel point is for breaking away and cutting, the pointed one for punching through and concentrating the blow. Using the wrong one doubles the time. Tell us the type of demolition and we will prepare the right set.

Large angle grinder hire in Cagliari
The difference between a small angle grinder and a big one is the depth of cut: with a 125 disc you get a few centimetres, and to go through a slab, a thick section or a block you need a bigger diameter. The large machine is used with both hands, it is heavy and it develops considerable torque, so it has to be treated with respect: a disc binding on a machine that size tears the tool out of your hands. It is not the right choice for finishing work, where the standard angle grinder is easier to control. Message us with the material and the thickness to be cut.
