Professional Digger Work & Plant Hire Services in Norfolk
Precision Engineering with Professional Plant
Heavy machinery is the backbone of any successful construction or landscaping project. At Breckland Paving & Landscaping, our Digger Work services are defined by “surgical” precision rather than just bulk excavation. Whether you require site levelling for a new build in Attleborough or intricate trenching for a Sunken Fire Pit in Norwich, our CSCS-certified operators possess the technical skill to work in tight residential spaces and large-scale commercial sites alike.
Operating excavators in the Norfolk landscape requires an understanding of diverse soil types—from the shifting sands of the Brecks to the heavy clays of the south. Using the wrong machinery or an inexperienced operator can lead to over-excavation, damaged utilities, or compromised soil stability. By choosing Breckland, you are hiring professional plant and operators.

1. Micro & Mini Digger Work (Restricted Access)
Many Norfolk town gardens have narrow side-access that prevents standard machinery from entering.
- Restricted Access: We operate micro-diggers that can fit through a standard 750mm-wide doorway or garden gate.
- Low-Impact Tracks: Our machinery utilises rubber tracks to minimise damage to existing driveways and paths during the Groundworks phase.
2. Bulk Excavation & Site Levelling
For larger projects throughout Norfolk, we provide heavy-duty earthmoving to prepare the site for construction.
- Laser Levelling: We use dual-grade laser technology to ensure your site is levelled to within millimetre-perfect datum points, essential for Patio Paving and Driveway sub-bases.
- Muck-Away: Our plant hire services include the coordination of grab-lorries to ensure all excavated spoil is removed quickly and responsibly.
3. Specialist Trenching & Foundation Digs
We provide high-accuracy trenching for all subterranean infrastructure, compliant with UK Building Regulations.
- Foundation Trenches: Precise digging for strip foundations, trench-fill, or raft preparations.
- Service Trenches: Safe excavation for water, gas, electricity, and fibre-optic runs, ensuring all utility “safe zones” are respected.
- Drainage & Soakaways: Deep excavation for SuDS-compliant attenuation tanks and crate soakaways.

Yes. Our micro-diggers are specifically designed for Norfolk residential projects with restricted access, retracting their tracks to fit through gaps as narrow as 700mm
Do you provide a "Driver Only" service?
We provide “Operated Plant Hire,” meaning you get a highly skilled operator who understands the complexities of Groundworks and drainage.
How do you avoid hitting pipes and cables?
Before we track a digger onto your site in Norwich or Attleborough, we conduct a site survey and use CAT (Cable Avoidance Tool) scanners to map out any existing underground services.
