Ploughman Excavations was established by Ross & Susan Ploughman on July 1st, 1988.

We’re proudly a family owned and operated company and our core strengths are to focus on delivering high quality outcomes, building strong relationships with our clients and ensuring our work is conducted in a safe and productive manner.

Our mantra of “Professionalism, Quality & Safety” represents the very core of who we are and how we approach every aspect of our operations.

We take great pride in having a broad spectrum of capabilities, with a key focus on delivering services to the construction, civil and landscaping sectors. Our skillset is backed by a diverse, impeccably maintained and state of the art equipment fleet.

The rigorous standards that we set and combine with a methodical approach, uniquely positions us to take on specialty projects where the client seeks an outcome of the highest quality which will be delivered in a considered and sensitive manner.

Having joined the business fulltime in 2016, eldest son Alex will be the next generation to lead Ploughman Excavations in the coming decades ahead, maintaining the core values and philosophies of the company that our clients have come to expect.
