We’ve been using this company for all our hire equipment for several years now, and they’ve been flawless from day one. The equipment is always well‑maintained, the team is responsive and easy to deal with, and everything just works the way it should. It’s a huge relief knowing we can rely on them for every job. Couldn’t ask for better service.

The finest poppadoms this side of Wakefield. Saag Aloo is the chefs speciality. A wonderfully authentic taste of India. Would defiantly recommend.

I don't really have a lot of personal experience of Banner power tools as I only go there for work. But every time I've been the staff there have been great and very helpful, should you have a problem.
