Areas we cover
From the Strathaven yard to the site.
Plant hire, groundworks and aggregates for the places we drive every week. Scotland-wide work still starts here.
Strathaven
The yard is at Drumclog, a few minutes from Strathaven. Plant, stone and concrete leave from here, and local jobs are the ones we can often turn around the same day.
South Lanarkshire
South Lanarkshire is home ground. The yard is in the county, so Hamilton, East Kilbride and the Clyde valley are a working day, not an overnight mobilisation.
Glasgow
Glasgow contracts are mobilised from Strathaven, not from a depot in the city. The machine that arrives is the one chosen for the ground, including sites a standard excavator should not be on.
East Ayrshire
East Ayrshire sits on the other side of the hills from the yard. Kilmarnock, the Irvine Valley and the ground towards forestry and peat are work we already mobilise for.
