The 'Digging Plan'
| We Plan for success and achieve your goals

On arrival to your works site our operator will ask you about your project and discuss the process, they'll also make some suggestions and provide guidance if required.  They're helpful like that and are happy to advise you.
  • While they're talking about your project they'll be formatting a 'Digging Plan' and will discuss with you how they will manage the day and in what order they will complete tasks.  They will also raise any issues with you.
  • Considerations have to be made for machinery movements around your site, the placing of spoil and other considerations.  Our operator will discuss all this with you to ensure you are aware and happy with their 'Digging Plan'.  Their plan may be amended as works progress.

Digging Plan | How, Why & When

Our operator will discuss your project with you and advise you of their digging plan, explaining what they'll do, how and in what sequence to achieve the best outcomes for your project

Adapt & Overcome

Until we start digging we do not know what challenges and obstacles are hidden below the surface.  Whatever we find; pipes, roots, rock/stone etc, we'll adapt and overcome 

Safety First | Always Safety First

The primary component of the Digging Plan is Safety!  Your safety, that of our operator and machinery is always our first concern.
...Because Safety Matters!
