Common questions

Bulk excavation & muck away: your questions.

Can you price from drawings without visiting the site?

Yes. We can price from drawings when you need a figure quickly. We still recommend a site visit before the work is awarded, because access, existing services and ground conditions can all affect the price.

Can muck away be included in your price?

Yes. We can price the excavation and the muck away together, so one contractor covers both. The quote shows how the material will be removed and what it costs.

What insurance and documents do you provide?

We carry public and employer’s liability insurance and can send the certificates on request. We supply RAMS before we start, and we work to your site induction, permits and hours.
