Finance for micro piling and restricted-access piling rigs from £60,000 to £450,000. A small UK market means lenders weigh the works contract alongside the rig's specification.
Yes, micro piling rigs are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £60,000 to £450,000, and most deals are written over 24-60 months with a deposit of around 15-25%. Decisions typically take 1–3 weeks. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Check EligibilityMicro piling rigs are plant and machinery and qualify for capital allowances in principle in the same way as other specialist construction equipment. As with the wider tunnelling and ground engineering category, values are high relative to a mainstream machine and the number of UK operators is relatively small, so it is worth getting specific advice on your rig and its intended use rather than assuming a general treatment applies without checking.
Micro piling rigs are bought by specialist geotechnical and foundation contractors, often working on restricted-access sites such as basements, conservatories, extensions to listed buildings, or confined urban plots where a standard-size piling rig cannot manoeuvre. Because these rigs are relatively few in number and are often configured for a specific access constraint or ground condition, lenders financing this equipment weigh the works contract behind the purchase alongside the rig's specification, in a similar way to the wider tunnelling and piling category, rather than relying mainly on an assumption about resale value. A price on application market is common for both new and used rigs in this category, reflecting the specialist, deal-by-deal nature of how they are bought and sold.
