Built for Melbourne homes, businesses, and construction sites

We’re not purely excavation contractors. Our services are designed for real-world applications where timing, access, and quality matter. We work closely with builders, landscaping crews, and local homeowners to deliver excavation, plumbing, and hire solutions that fit the site and scope. Every job is completed safely, with a strong focus on customer satisfaction, compliance, and exceptional results.

Dry hire equipment and machinery

Our dry hire service gives you access to high-performance, compact excavation gear without the overhead. Ideal for tight-access projects, small construction sites, and mid-scale civil works, our fleet includes mini excavators, tracked dumpers, and tipper trucks.


All equipment is regularly serviced, fully insured, and delivered on time, ready to get to work. We offer flexible hire terms and can assist with transport, attachments, and job-specific setups.
