Where rock breaking is needed
In many parts of Rhodes, rock sits just below the surface. We often meet it in foundations, pools, basements, utility trenches and roads cut into hillsides.
- Rock breaking for foundations and basements
- Digging a pool on a rocky plot
- Trenches for pipes and cables through rock
- Opening and widening roads on slopes
- Breaking boulders and old concrete
How we work
The hydraulic breaker replaces the bucket on the excavator and breaks the rock into pieces that are easy to load. We work in stages to keep to the excavation limits your engineer sets.
Breaking with a hydraulic hammer is a mechanical method with no explosives, and with due care it can be done close to existing buildings.
What happens to the broken rock
The pieces are loaded into our tipper trucks and taken away. If you want stone for dry-stone walls, retaining walls or backfill on the plot, we set some aside.
