In 1986, Eamonn Kilgallon, a fitter by trade, saw an opening in the market for plant hire and sales of construction plant. Eamonn quickly established a reputation under the umbrella of Haven Engineering and in 1993 the Kilgallons seized an opportunity when they bought Celbridge Hire and amalgamated the two companies to form Haven Hire.

The company’s deep roots in the machinery industry is one of the keys to its success. We have since expanded into Maynooth and Naas, so we became Haven Hire. Haven Hire had been operating successfully in Celbridge since Eamonn Kilgallon started the business in 1993. Time for expansion then started with the opening of depots in Maynooth followed by Naas.

We have great team of experienced depot managers who have a wealth of knowledge of the industry are all focused on customer service. Havens hands on approach to the business has certainly kept it in close contact with its large customer base . Consequently, Haven have developed a great relationship with many customers and therein lies one of our core strengths. Constant customer focus and our large and diverse product range are key to Havens continued success. Hire is very much about the process, ensuring that the quality of each hire is like the first hire and that each customer has a positive experience every time they hire from us.
