CARTAGE & REMOVAL
Utilising our fleet of trucks, we manage everything from soil and hardfill transport to debris clearance. Whether it is earthmoving Canterbury locals need for new builds or ongoing rural property maintenance, we ensure materials are moved efficiently.
CONCRETE & PAVING
Concrete works for residential, commercial and rural projects, including driveways, paths, patios, equipment pads, yards and other hardstand areas. MJC can manage the preparation as well as the finished works — excavation, sub-base preparation, boxing and site preparation through to concrete placement and surrounding reinstatement.

LANDSCAPING & REMEDIATION
From final shaping and topsoil through to the finishing works around a completed project, MJC can leave the site ready to use. Our work includes final contouring, topsoil placement, lawn and landscape preparation, site remediation and reinstatement, as well as fencing, retaining, concrete paths and other finishing works associated with our projects.
By carrying out the earthworks and many of the finishing elements ourselves, we can take a project from rough ground through to a tidy, practical finished site without unnecessary handovers between multiple contractors.

Whether you need routine maintenance, repairs following wet weather or excavation for a new project, we're happy to discuss what you're looking to achieve.
FROM PLANNING TO COMPLETION
FROM START TO FINISH.
One point of contact. One project managed from start to finish.
Where a project requires more than machinery on the ground, MJC can help coordinate the wider process — from initial planning and site works through to the finished result.
We can assist with council requirements and consenting, and coordinate with engineers, architects, landscape architects and other specialist consultants or trades where required.
Combined with our own earthworks, site works, cartage, concrete, retaining, fencing and site-finishing capabilities, this means fewer handovers and a more straightforward path from the initial idea through to completion.
