Levelling a site — for a base, lawn, shed or building — is far quicker with a mini digger than a rake and shovel. Here’s how to get a true, even finish.
Getting it level
- Set a datum and mark your finished level with pegs and a laser or line level.
- Strip and stockpile the topsoil before you start cutting and filling.
- Cut down the high spots and move material to the low spots, working methodically.
- Use the back of the bucket to drag and smooth as you go.
- Compact filled areas in layers so they don’t settle later.
A grading or ditching bucket gives the smoothest finish — ask us about attachments when you book. Hire a mini digger across Norfolk & Suffolk, delivered and collected. Get a quote.
