Ben Boare is the founder and managing director of Digging It Groundworks Ltd– a multifaceted construction company based in Andover, Hampshire, who can offer plant hire, civil engineering services, bulk excavation and much more.
Ben spent much of his formative years working in the groundworks industry, starting off like so many on the ground and making his way up through the ranks, working for a number of Hampshire based civil engineering companies, like J. Devine, Aeropark and Dyer & Butler.
The company have historically run a mixed fleet of hydraulic excavators having previously ran JCB, Volvo, Takeuchi and Kubota machines, but in recent years they have turned to Hyundai, with the first R 140LC-9 being purchased from Selwood Plant in Chandlers Ford.
Ben has now turned to the Molson Group to meet his machinery requirements and one of his first machines supplied by them was a second-hand R 145LCR-9A compact radius machine, this was closely followed by a 22-tonne class Hyundai R 220LC-9A and an HL757-9 wheeled loading shovel which is used in the company’s recycling facility.
Ben’s latest deal through Molson has seen him take delivery of three brand new machines entering the fleet, consisting of two x 14 tonne class Hyundai HX140L excavators.
