What We Do

Built for the Jobs Others Turn Down

Our mini combo goes where full-size equipment can't — through side gates, under houses, and into tight residential spaces without tearing up your yard.

Tight-Access Excavation

Rubber-tracked mini combo from 1,000mm wide. Zero swing means we can dig in spaces where a standard excavator won't fit — wide side gates, courtyards, under-house areas.

🚧

Trenching

Trenching for plumbing, electrical installation, backfill, and landscape ready for turf or otherwise.

🚚

Haulage & Tipper Hire

Material removal, site cleanup, and tipper hire for soil, rubble, and spoil. We cart it away so you don't have to worry about what happens after the dig.

1,000mm

That's a wide single gate or a standard double gate. If you've got that, we've got access. Most of our jobs are the ones others said couldn't be done.

Hoey's demonstrates excellent knowledge and understanding of all aspects in earthworks for jobs big and small at a very reasonable price.
