Excavation & Earthworks Across Hereford & Shropshire

Every groundworks project rests on accurate excavation, and that’s the stage BJB Contractors Ltd has built its reputation on across Hereford, Herefordshire and Shropshire. Dig too shallow, too deep, or in the wrong place, and every later stage of a project has to compensate for it. We support farms, developers, landowners and commercial sites with 20 years of hands-on experience and a well-maintained fleet of excavators kept in good working order. We’ve excavated everything from small trenches for a single drainage run to large-scale earthworks moving thousands of tonnes of material across a development site, and we bring the same attention to accuracy whatever the scale of the dig.

The Range We Cover

We carry out excavation for foundations, drainage, ponds, trenches and general earthworks, running excavators from 1.8 to 15 tonnes so the machine matches the job, whether that’s a tight domestic site with limited access or a larger commercial or agricultural project needing bulk earth moved efficiently. All work is carried out by our NRSWA-accredited, fully insured team, who plan each dig around ground conditions, services and drainage before breaking ground. We keep spoil management in mind from the outset too – deciding what can be reused on site and what needs taking away, rather than leaving that decision until the site is already covered in it.

 Accuracy Sets Up Everything Else

Get the excavation wrong and every later stage – foundations, drainage, landscaping – suffers for it, so we treat accuracy as non-negotiable rather than an afterthought. We work locally and take on nationwide projects where required, bringing the same standard wherever the job is. If a project’s scope changes once digging starts, which happens more often than people expect once you can actually see what’s underground, we’ll talk you through the options rather than just carrying on and adding it to the bill without warning. We’re happy to provide a written breakdown of costs before work starts, so budgeting for the project is straightforward from the outset, and we’ll flag promptly if ground conditions mean the scope needs to change once we’re on site.
