Cutting Edge Excavation

14/06/2026

Hi all!

Bit of a change from the usual work updates!

I am reaching out to ask for some support for my friend Catherine and her Dunedin Hedgehog Rescue, I know hedgehogs aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but personally I have a great love for them and have a few that I feed at home. Had the pleasure of seeing Catherines operation and got to pet a few baby hedgies (Idk there’s something about baby animals that just melts your heart lol)

Catherine has lots of videos and pics on her FB page so check that out and be prepared for a cuteness overload;)

If you could give a couple of bucks to help these little fellas that would be much appreciated!

Funds needed to secure the future of Dunedin Hedgehogs

Daisy got a Glow up today! Bevan from Bay Positioning installing the unicontrol grade system, no more getting out of the digger every 5min to check levels! If necessity is the mother of invention, laziness is definitely the Father!😉
Looking forward to my training session tomorrow.
4th site complete now, next project coming up shortly.

Nearly done on the 4th Lot at Flagstaff Dr for Mike Greer Homes, this one needed a 4 tier platform with some interesting engineering and transitions, it’s been the most satisfying project to date! Pulled a few hours today to get the base course ready for the top course of quarry dust next week. The last pic shows a nice progression of the last couple of sites well under way now!
Many thanks to the team at Nash & Ross for providing bulk cartage (in excess of 300t for this job alone) cheers to Marty, Tyler, Wayne, Hamish, bob, Andy, Arnie, couldn’t do it without you, you rock! 💪

Well that was a whirlwind of a job! Very fortunate with the weather, only one small spell of rain that saved me wetting down the roadbase for compaction!😁
One more to go for now and not far to travel the digger!

Had a bit of a welcome break this week, this project required concrete footings and block work, after digging the footings I took off! Thats all done now and ready for my return on Monday, in a week or so it should look much like my last site next door!😁

Here is what the completed build will look like.

Mike Greer Homes Ltd was formed almost 30 years ago and in this time it has grown to be one New Zealands leading residential design and build companies.
