The unit shown in the photos have non marking tyres - the white ones, but as already mentioned, debris stuck in the tyres - stones, screws, etc will do your floor some damage.
Scissor & boom lifts are usually the only good buy you will get from a Hire company, as they sell them as they hit thier 10 year inspection - they are usually still in pretty good nick, but it costs more than it's worth to do the inspections. Great for personal use, but you can't hire it out to anyone, not a big deal in your case by the sounds of it.
Also, as mentioned, check the batteries, they are pricey to replace. Good battery maintenance is a must if you don't want to be changing them in a year or so.
If your floor will hold it, I would say go for it - parts for these are pretty easy to get, and don't cost the world. Rams are rebuildable, bushes can also be replaced.
