  • Kent Operated Digger Hire

    Rockhill Rhododendron Ave Meopham, Gravesend, DA13 0TT, GB

    Kent Operated Digger Hire I specialize in excavating driveways, footings, drainage trenches, soakaways, ponds, soil leveling, and spreading, etc. I offer a 1.5t 360 mini digger with a driver, 1m1cm wide, with an approximate digging depth of 2m and buckets of 300mm and 600mm for spreading. Prices start at £350 per day. A concrete breaker attachment is available for an additional £100 per day. For narrow access, I have a 700mm wide digger with a folding roll bar, starting at £350 per day. A 2.6t digger is also available from £400 per day, depending on distance. I typically arrive at 8:00 am and need to leave by 4:00 pm. The 'Day' is up to 7 hours, with a 1-hour break. If the job lasts less than 7 hours, it will be charged at the full-day price. Prices include delivery and fuel up to 20 miles from Meopham, Kent. Inquire for pricing if further. The average extension foundation takes one to two days. I also offer all drainage installation, repairs, and septic tank or treatment plant installation. Email for a quote. At an extra cost, we can arrange for a surveyor to mark out footings, or you can do it yourself. Usually, a surveyor is not needed for an extension. I am happy to help self-builders or DIYers with advice. If electric, gas, water, or drainage crosses foundations, they need to be marked. I also offer hire-I-drive for 360 machines up to 7t and 4x4 site masters and dumpers, which I am experienced in operating. So you just pay me for driving. Email me for a price. COVID-19 UPDATE: At the moment, we are still working as normal. If you could please email or text photos and descriptions so I don't need to visit to have a look, and I will be complying with distancing measures on site. Please contact me, and I will get you booked in. Thanks, Rory.

    4703 92 Ave, Edmonton, T6B 2J4, GB

    Specializing in Replacement of Sewer & Water Lines Since 1972 Lavenders Contracting is a trusted Edmonton sewer and water line replacement company with over 50 years of experience. We are committed to providing our clients with the highest quality service and workmanship, and we stand behind our work with a lifetime warranty. We offer a wide range of services, including trenchless directional drilling, video line inspection, and 24-hour emergency service. We are also proud to be a member of the Better Business Bureau, the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce, and the Alberta Construction Safety Association. Signs You Need Sewer Line Maintenance: While the sewer lines at our homes are used daily to move and remove water and waste, we rarely think about our home sewer line. Until a problem develops, the sewer line at your home is your last worry. Once a problem develops, there’s little else you can focus on. If you’d rather not have to deal with a huge sewer malfunction that can lead to expensive damage to your home, it’s crucial to watch for the tell-tale signs that mean your sewer line needs attention. Ignoring these signs could lead to more severe issues and higher repair costs. Odor Wetness around floor drains Slow flushing toilets and frequent back-ups If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to call Lavenders Contracting for sewer line repair Edmonton Trusts. Trenchless Directional Drilling If line replacement is necessary, we can replace your home’s sewer line with minimal disruption to your property, thanks to trenchless directional drilling and video line inspection technology. In most cases, coring the line allows us to install a replacement without trenching your lawn. Trenchless directional drilling is handy if you have a meticulously design lawn or if it is difficult to find the source of the problem. We won’t have to tear up your basement or yard with directional drilling to fix the problem. When it’s done, you will have a new clean-out, new sewer and water line, and peace of mind, so you can go back to not thinking about your home sewer line. Video Sewer Line Inspections As a homeowner, you owe it to yourself to check your sewer line every few years, especially in an older home. You don’t want to contact a company that may not have up-to-date technology or one that could charge you for extra services. As sewer line contractors in Edmonton, Lavenders Contracting can use a camera to show you exactly what’s down there and then roto-rooting to clear clogs or tree branches, depending on what we find. Since we can show you the footage, you can trust that we are repairing what needs to be fixed and not charging for extra services. This technology also gives us an accurate grade for new pipes and sewers. What we Offer: Our team covers a vast range of sewage services including: MOBILE SERVICE: This means we bring you all the tools using one of our custom truck solutions UNIQUE CORING OF LINE SERVICE: It reduces the amount of excavation required, reduces your costs, and reduces landscaping issues and repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

Find answers to common questions about excavation contractors and hiring excavation professionals in the UK.

How deep can you excavate?

The depth of excavation achievable depends on multiple factors:
  • Soil Type and Stability: Stable, cohesive soils allow for deeper excavations than loose or unstable soils.
  • Groundwater Level: Excavations below the water table require dewatering techniques to manage water intrusion.
  • Equipment and Resources: The size and capabilities of excavation equipment influence the achievable depth.
  • Safety Regulations: OSHA and other safety regulations impose limitations on trench depths without proper shoring or sloping.
  • Project Requirements: The purpose of the excavation (basement, pool, foundation) determines the necessary depth.
Experienced excavation contractors can assess your site and project specifics to determine the safe and feasible excavation depth.

How do I know if I need a retaining wall?

Retaining walls are structures designed to hold back soil or rock and prevent erosion on sloped terrain. You might need a retaining wall if:
  • Sloped Property: Your property has a significant slope, making it prone to soil erosion or landslides.
  • Creating Usable Space: You want to level off a sloped area to create a flat surface for patios, gardens, or other outdoor spaces.
  • Preventing Damage: Erosion is threatening existing structures, driveways, or walkways.
  • Landscaping Features: You're incorporating tiered gardens, raised beds, or other landscaping elements requiring soil retention.
Consult with an excavation contractor or landscape architect to determine if a retaining wall is necessary for your project and to ensure it's properly designed and constructed for safety and longevity.

How do you protect utilities during excavation?

Protecting buried utilities is paramount during excavation. Here are crucial steps:
  • Utility Locates: Contact your utility companies to mark the locations of underground lines before excavation begins. This is usually a free service.
  • Hand Digging: Excavate carefully by hand near marked utility lines to avoid damage.
  • Potholing: Digging small test holes to expose and verify utility depths and locations.
  • Safe Distances: Maintaining a safe distance between excavation equipment and marked utility lines.
  • Vacuum Excavation: Using vacuum excavation techniques to expose utilities without digging, reducing the risk of damage.
Reputable excavation contractors prioritize utility protection and adhere to safety guidelines to prevent costly and potentially dangerous accidents.

How do you handle soil disposal after excavation?

Responsible soil disposal after excavation is essential. Excavation contractors typically handle it by:
  • Hauling to Designated Disposal Sites: Transporting excavated material to approved landfills or recycling centers.
  • Recycling or Reuse: If suitable, some excavated soil might be recycled for other projects or reused on-site for landscaping or backfilling.
  • Complying with Regulations: Adhering to local and environmental regulations for soil disposal to prevent contamination or illegal dumping.
Discuss disposal plans with your contractor, inquire about recycling options, and ensure they handle waste responsibly.
