Rental Equipment for Winter Construction
Forced Air Heaters:
When the temperatures drop, and the job site becomes a frigid environment, forced air heaters become essential tools. These heaters efficiently and consistently provide warmth, ensuring your workspace remains comfortable, regardless of how chilly it gets. Forced air heaters are ideal for various applications, from concrete curing to paint drying, allowing you to maintain productivity during winter.
LP Powered Concrete Buggies:
Transporting materials in snowy and icy conditions can be a daunting task. LP-powered concrete buggies solve this problem, making material handling a breeze even in challenging terrains. Whether you’re working on a construction site or a renovation project, these versatile machines are designed to move heavy loads efficiently, ensuring that your project stays on track.
Battery-Powered Cut-Off Saw:
Traditional cut-off saws, especially in winter, can be cumbersome due to their cords and emissions. Battery-powered cut-off saws offer a cleaner and more efficient solution for cutting concrete, masonry, and metal. These products are perfect for indoor and outdoor winter tasks, providing portability and reduced maintenance.
Floor Grinders (Floor Prep):
Floor preparation is often a significant part of winter construction projects. Floor grinders are the go-to products for leveling, smoothing, and grinding concrete surfaces, ensuring that your floors are ready for the next phase of your project. Their versatility and efficiency are essential in cold-weather environments.
Electric Scarifier:
Electric scarifiers are indispensable in winter construction for efficiently removing coatings, corrosion, or roughening concrete surfaces. These machines are designed to prepare surfaces by providing a clean canvas for coatings or overlays, which is essential for achieving the best results in your project.
Shot Blaster w/ Vac:
Surface preparation is a vital step in winter construction, particularly when it comes to removing contaminants and creating an ideal substrate for coatings or overlays. Shot blasters with integrated vacuums are the perfect solution for these tasks, ensuring the durability and longevity of your winter project.

Battery-powered tools offer the versatility and freedom to work efficiently in any winter environment. Whether you need cordless drills, saws, or other power tools, these items provide the convenience of cordless operation, allowing you to focus on the task at hand without constraints.
Epoxy Supplies:
Epoxy applications are common in construction, especially for coatings and adhesives. Badger Contractors Rental and Supply offer a wide selection of epoxy supplies to meet your bonding and finishing requirements with quality and precision, even in winter conditions.
Pressure Washer:
Maintaining cleanliness on your construction site is crucial, especially during winter when dirt and grime accumulate. A pressure washer is essential to keep your equipment and work areas clean. It helps prevent corrosion and ensures a safe and organized job site.
Air Compressor:
An air compressor is a versatile piece of equipment vital for winter construction. It can power a wide range of tools, such as nail guns, impact wrenches, and paint sprayers, making your winter projects more efficient and convenient. We have the air compressor for rent or sale at Badger.
