Cotswold Roller Hire Ltd (CRH) was founded in 1965 as one of the pioneers in the construction equipment hire market; providing specialist knowledge in the hire of compaction equipment to the construction and civil engineering market.

To this day we still strive to be pioneers with a strong focus on research, development and innovation having designed and constructed, what we consider, to be the first working prototype of an zero emission electric deadweight roller in 2018. Our innovation continues with the development of a remote operated 120 vibratory roller in 2020 -2021, eliminating hand arm and whole body vibration for the operator, reducing noise at the operators ear and eliminating the need for a operator to be placed in potential danger when having to provide material compaction in enclosed spaces or other potentially hazardous situations.

The company operates a full range of vibrating rollers in our hire fleet from single drum pedestrian rollers to 19 tonne self-propelled.  Over the years we have added further plant equipment to the hire fleet to enable us to offer a ‘One Stop Shop’ to our customer base, providing: Mobile welfare solutions; mini excavators; site dumpers; tracked dumpers; JCB 2CX and 3CX Compact loaders; pre-coated chip spreaders; asphalt pavers; mobile lighting towers; dust suppression cannons.

Over the past 50 plus years CRH has won a hard-earned reputation for providing quality equipment backed up by outstanding service, evidenced by the company’s accreditation to ISO9001 back in 1996. The company went on to achieve ISO14001 approval in 2005 for our environmental management system  and OHSAS18001 accreditation for health and safety in 2010 which has since been superseded by our registration to ISO45001 in 2018.

From our eight regional depot locations we are able to provide a truly national coverage with a local service level. Each location continues to run on the philosophy first envisaged by our founder and Chairman all those years ago – with a strong commitment to excellence in service, and a dedication to ensure our equipment is right first time and on site at the time we promise.
