    Whats a ''diggerman''? If you mean excavator hire, please see below:


    20 ton Excavator €50per hour

    JCB 3CX Wheel Excavator €35 per hour

    Mini-Excavator 3.5 ton €30 per hour

    D6 Dozer €66per hour

    20 ton Dump Truck €50per hour

    Tractor & Dump Trailer 14 ton €35 per hour

    These prices are ex VAT and would be competitive enough. They could also vary depending on current fuel prices. There could also be transport costs. Expect to pay €200-250 for a low-loader move for a large machine.

    I have to get my percolation area dug up and replaced. I'm not sure what size would be used for that.
