GAP’s ten divisions comprise Plant Hire, Tool Hire, Lifting & TIC, Non-Mechanical, Trenching & Shoring, Survey & Safety Hire, Pump Services, Welfare Services, Tanker Services & Event Services.

GAP was established in 1969 by Gordon Anderson and the company is still family-owned and run by his sons Douglas and Iain. GAP’s aim is simple – to make our customers lives easier by providing market-leading equipment and exceptional service.
