Groundworks & earthworks
Slurry lagoons
We dig out, form and compact earth-banked slurry lagoons and stores for farms across Yorkshire. We work to your engineer's or designer's specification and can work alongside them on site. We carry out the excavation and earthworks — we don’t design the lagoon, certify it, or handle regulatory approvals.
Discuss your projectWhat we do
- Dig out the lagoon or store to the levels and profile on the drawings.
- Form and compact earth banks with our own dozers and excavators.
- Shape the base and banks ready for lining, if a liner is part of the design.
- Build access ramps so tankers and agitators can get in and out.
- Load out surplus muck and keep the site tidy as we go.
Ideal for
- Dairy and livestock farms needing a new slurry store
- Farms enlarging or relocating an existing lagoon
- Contractors and engineers who need a plant-and-operator team on the earthworks
