Excavation & Haulage

Excavation, drainage and sewer work, surveying and levelling. The groundwork everything else is built on, and the trucks to move it.

What we dig

Small jobs and big contracts get the same crew and the same care.

Sewer work

Everything from replacing a few pipes or a septic tank to large projects where we have replaced entire sewer systems for municipalities.

Drainage

Mostly around houses with damp basements. While the ground is open we often recommend fitting insulation board and dimpled membrane at the same time.

Basement excavation

Digging out new or deeper basements. Typically winter work, so it is worth booking early.

Excavation

From a small dig to a car park or an extension. We survey and level the ground so the next trade can start straight away.

Haulage

Our own trucks move spoil, gravel and materials to and from site, so the dig is not waiting on a lorry.

Built for awkward ground

Steep gardens, narrow gaps between houses, rock a spade’s depth down. We are used to digging and working where access is hard, with machines sized for the job.

Damp basement? Drainage works best with insulation and dimpled membrane fitted against the wall while the trench is open. We price both together.
