Dave Nail has been in the equipment rental and repair business for more than 30 years and has owned and operated a number of shops in south Orange County. In the late ’90s, Nail, with the prefect name for the tool business, consolidated his shops into one location, Capo Beach Equipment Rentals, located at 34221 Doheny Park Road in Capistrano Beach.
“We love this town, it is our little Mayberry,” Nail said of Capo Beach. “It is the last bastion of small town in Southern California.”
Nail and manager Edward Lloyd have been serving Dana Point and the surrounding Orange County area for 14 years, and while the city has changed, Nail’s business has all but stayed the same, he said. Providing tool rentals, repairs and sales, this two-man force provides services to weekend warriors tackling DIY projects and professional contractors and landscapers working on complete remodels alike.
Capo Beach Equipment Rentals offers a wide range of tools both big and small—from power washers and sanders to saws and jackhammers—and repairs and sharpens all brands of tools. No matter what a customer’s repair need is or what a job calls for, the tools can be rented or mishaps can be repaired, Nail said. In additional to providing one-on-one care to each of their customers, Nail and Lloyd also take care of their community by helping out various athletic programs at Dana Hills High School.
