Before...

After!

We’ll make quick work of the tallest gorse on steep, hard-to-reach sites.

Steep gullies and hillsides are often left for gorse to overtake because it’s too dif!cult to control. Spraying requires a lengthy die-off period and still leaves the problem of removal. Burning can promote rapid re-growth and can damage non-target vegetation. With our new 22.5tonne machine and its !xed tooth

mulching head we go where no others have before. We’ll turn gorse-ridden land into productive farm land quickly and ef!ciently. You’ll save on spraying costs and re-vegetation or re-sowing can start immediately. Any gorse regrowth can then be more easily managed and maintained.

Dams | Wetlands | Bridges | Timber Jetties | Culvert Crossings$5,000,000 Public Liability Insurance covering all !re risk
