We have invested in a fleet of specialist vegetation clearance machines. Each has low ground pressure making them ideal for clearing vegetation in sensitive areas.
Our experience ranges from straight forward site clearances of trees and scrub vegetation to sensitive dormouse and water vole habitat clearance.
We also carry out extensive top soil strips and muck shift works of up to tens of thousands cubic meters of material.

- 8t – 40t excavators, bulldozers and dump trucks

Destructive Searches
Where suitable habitat requires removal under licence or supervision we can help. We have a wealth of experience in carrying out licenced destructive searches. This includes using large excavators to strip newt, reptile and water vole habitat and removing ponds and badger setts.
We also have years of experience in managing vegetation onsite to manipulate habitats to aid translocation projects, encourage movement of species or carefully reduce and remove vegetation.
Our Staff
Our staff are trained, qualified and experienced in a wide range of vegetation clearance methods. As well as operating our specialist plant machinery we carry out works using; chainsaws, hedge cutters and brush cutter/strimmers.
