Our Story
From Forestry to Findlay Excavations
Ash spent 15 years working in forestry before looking for a more family-friendly job. About seven years ago, Ash started Findlay Excavations. It began small and snowballed from there.
Today we're a trusted family-owned business, with Ash still running the machines as our owner-operator. We work with a full range of excavators from 3 to 13 tonne, and take on residential, commercial, school and industrial jobs across Ballarat and surrounds.
Attention to detail is at the heart of how we work. Whether it's a small residential dig or a large industrial site, every job gets the same care from the first cut to the final finish.
