The Chronicle talks to new advertiser Ron Shea about Shea’s Excavations and all that is on offer.
Can you tell us a bit about your connection to Raglan, and how your previous business has evolved into your new venture?
I’m a born and bred Raglaner and have had a lifelong connection with Raglan having been born here, although I have lived and worked in Hamilton most of my life.
I now find myself based in the Waitetuna Valley.
I have had many years operating a small business formerly known as Dr Tree and bobcat/digger services LTD. I’m now not offering arborist services although I will still be doing some tree works dropping bigger trees. I have rebranded the business to “Shea’s Excavations”.
What services do you offer and what machinery are you operating?
I offer earthworks of all sized jobs and run 2 diggers, one 4 tonne and one 6 tonne machine that are ideal for domestic jobs but also a good size for lifestyle blocks and farm races and drains.
I have over 25 years experience doing all sorts of digger works including driveways, house pads, re-lawns, land clearing, demolition, retaining walls, and much much more.
I run a 4 wheel truck with an 8 tonne payload and offer cartage services for aggregates and topsoil and clean fill.
I have a civil engineering background so can help with drainage and other civil tasks.
