Rural Services

Contouring

 

Our contouring services transform steep or unfarmable land into productive areas by reshaping and levelling paddocks to suit modern farming needs. This not only improves water flow and reduces erosion but also maximises usable land across your property.

We also provide specialised contouring for horticulture, including reshaping land to increase kiwifruit growth and orchard productivity. With careful planning and precision earthworks, we create sustainable, farm-ready layouts that improve both efficiency and long-term returns.

Drainage Systems

  We install new drainage systems and maintain or upgrade existing drains to ensure water flows freely across your property. Our services include full design and construction as well as ongoing clearing and repair. We can also install subsoil drainage to improve water management, reduce waterlogging, and enhance pasture health. These tailored solutions help prevent flooding, erosion, and long-term damage to farmland. 

Stock & General Farm Races

 We construct new farm races and repair or maintain existing ones to keep your property running smoothly. Well-built races are essential not only for safe and efficient livestock movement but also for providing reliable access for farm machinery. Our team handles everything from earthworks and grading to full layout design, ensuring your races are durable, practical, and tailored to the needs of your farm. 

Tree Removal & Land Clearing

 Our team provides professional tree removal, shrub clearing, and land clearing services, With specialised attachments like root rakes and grab buckets, we can efficiently remove vegetation, stumps, and roots, leaving sites clean and ready for farming, subdivision, or construction. These services are ideal for preparing paddocks, lifestyle blocks, and development sites, ensuring safe, cost-effective results. 

Ponds

 We design and construct new ponds as well as maintain and clean existing ones to support irrigation, stock water, and environmental management. Our 20-tonne long reach excavator is fitted with GPS, giving us the ability to reshape, clean, or build ponds with accuracy and reach that a conventional digger cannot achieve. This ensures precise results, even in areas that are difficult to access.  

This is just a glimpse of what we can offer. We provide a wide range of rural earthworks and land development services across the Waikato and Bay of Plenty, tailored to the unique needs of each property.
