Happy Friday!! Where have we been hiding ? TMR projects over the last years as we see the 5 ton and 8 ton tipper heading to the Gold coast light rail project for a while. 🚛🚛🚜

Tight area for the 5 ton to load into the trucks between the piling on the Bruce Highway but is perfect for our RT40 Posi track to sand up our trench and backfill. 😎👍🏽

Good to be back on the levers after a night off due to stormy weather ⛈️. Still pushing through on nights with our Hitachi 5.5 ton.
50 metres of trenching, Installing 2×100mm Electrical & Communications conduits & 2X T60 pits in 2.5 hrs not a bad night.

Let’s talk night shift!!!

Some people love it & some don’t. I find good lighting is the key and all my machines and trucks are running LED work lights. As for both excavators I opted to spend a bit more on quality & choose to upgrade the standard lights for STEDI C-4 black addition for the 5 ton Hitachi & C-4 Yellow addition for our Cat 1.7 ton all diffuse & omg what a different it makes. I also added a 48w LED light to the rear of the Hitachi from STEDI. 💡🚜🚛

Our last plant to complete the 5 tonne is our 2018 Isuzu FSR 6 metre tipper with low side drop down 👍🏽. This truck will allow us to do so much more that just a tipper for our clients. The low sides means we can load in with our 1.7 tone excavator and Rt40 posi if need too😎.This tipper will be based on the BHSM as well for the rest of the year with our 5 ton excavator.

The last month has been crazy busy as we Welcome our brand new Hitachi 5 ton excavator to our fleet. This machine will be based on the BHSM project on nights for the rest of the year to help complete the electrical infrastructure on the Bruce Highway.

A couple of P6 pits and 25m of trench installed by me myself & I 😂💪🏽

With all the wet weather we have been getting, we got called out to an emergency job as our clients driveway had collapsed away. 13 tonne of 75mm concrete recycled rock was brought into temporarily fix until new culverts arrive.

On another note: We welcomed our 2020 ASV RT- 40 6N1 to our fleet & this was the perfect job to show what it can do.

🙋🏽‍♂️ Who would like a round pool.. 🙋🏽‍♂️

Rectangle pools are cool to dig but round pools are next level 🙌🏼 The power tilt came in handy on this one. 👍🏽

Our friends wanted their backyard levelled before we excavated the pool.
Total of two days to dig out and level their yard before the weather turned on us. 🌧 Was still able to get the job done 👌🏽

Here’s some before and afters.

STOP !!! Hammer time 🔨😁

Our clients front yard looked amazing but there was a lot of space that could be utilised better.

Our job was to remove the existing retaining wall and excavate out for the potential spa pool area 💦 . Aliasing with the client keeping them informed with changes. Offering a variety of experienced subcontractors in different fields is what we can offer here at TUKS. 👍🏽
