Earthmoving / Excavation

Our earthmoving department has more than forty years experience with a
variety of machinery and specialist equipment.
 
Here are our 5.5 tonne Yanmar excavator and our 1.8 tonne Komatsu hard at work in some really tough ground. 
As you can see no excavation is to difficult.
 Here our 5.5 tonne Yanmar is working on a wetland
rehabilitation program at Sale where we have been working on a voluntary
basis to rehabilitate Hearts Morass.

 
Part of our extensive range of equipment is this Hydraulic rake grapple which was perfect
for dealing with the Noxious weed ÔÇ£box thornÔÇØ. It is also perfect for handling rocks in
quarry work and specialist natural stone construction.
 
We have extensive experience in stone house construction, rock spall beaching for
erosion control and random stone walls
 

 
Our other attachments for the excavator include:     
Buckets in  300mm, 400mm, 450mm, 600mm and 1500mm mud bucket,
Ripper, Drill with Augers capable of drilling rock in:  350mm, 450mm, 600mm, 900mm.
 
Our fleet also consists of a number of tipping trucks, Backhoes and front end loaders.
Look familier? These machines love getting stuck into their work.
Our latest machine is this great little KOMATSU PC-18MR.
It will literaly go anywhere. With it's expanding tracks we can work through as little as 1m! And boy can it dig! 
This Komatsu is a great little machine.
We have buckets in 300mm, 450mm and 1000mm mud.
We also have an auger capable of drilling 300mm, 350mm, 450mm and 600mm.
It is a fantastic machine and with it's extra long arm and expanding tracks it really fights above it's division when compared to other machines under 2 tonne.
