About this Project
Shaun has sucessfully carried out numerous projects for Nuns Moor over the last 20 years but this was his first big project with his own company, SHR Excavations.
The project involved reinstating allotments on the site by tackling long-standing ground conditions, improving surface water drainage and re-landscaping to improve its appearance. Shaun's reputation for his tidy and efficient working methods and a high standard of professionalism always leads to complete customer satisfaction.

Client Testimonial
"Shaun's professionalism and knowledge of the business is vast and his attitude to both his work and customer is 2nd to none, attention to detail is paramount, and the end product is what you would want and expect, "and probably more". I'm a big believer in you get what you pay for and this man never falls short.
