I work for a road construction company (heavy equipment), new road, re-grades, site work and anything else that requires dirt to be moved.. I run a CAT 345 excavator mostly but will also jump on a dozer or blade if needed..
Work really slowed down last couple of years but is starting to pick up as we once again have enough work to last till freeze up.. Company also brought in a few brand new pieces of equipment to try out so that's nice..... We also do some mining for Kaolin but the demand took a major drop so we are out of it at the moment. Hope you have a good season..
