Farm and groundworks help, when you need it

From full-size farm machinery to lawns and hedges: one reliable operator. Here’s the kind of work I take on.

Tractor driving Farming

  • Arable
  • Grassland
  • Carting
  • Haulage

From spring cultivations through silage and harvest to muck spreading in the autumn, Jake can step in as an extra driver when there’s more work than hands.

Typical jobs

  • Ploughing, cultivating and drilling
  • Mowing, raking and silage carting to the clamp
  • Baling, bale carting and bale haulage by road
  • Slurry tanker work, muck and slurry spreading
  • Grain carting at harvest

Digger & groundworks Groundworks

  • Excavation
  • Ground prep
  • Drainage
  • Site clearance

Whether it’s a field drain that needs sorting, a trench for services or a site to clear and prepare before work starts, Jake operates the digger with care for the ground and what’s under it.

Typical jobs

  • Trenching for drains, water and services
  • Field drainage and ditching
  • Footings and foundation digs
  • Site and ground clearance
  • Preparing ground ready for the next stage of work
  • Excavating and moving spoil
  • Yard, track and gateway work

Stock work Livestock

  • Cattle
  • Sheep
  • Handling

Good stockmanship is about patience and knowing the animals. Jake can cover daily feeding and checks, or lend a hand when the whole flock or herd needs gathering and handling.

Typical jobs

  • Feeding, bedding and daily checks
  • Gathering, moving and sorting stock
  • Help at lambing and calving
  • Handling for vets and testing days
  • Relief cover when you need time away

Lawns & hedges Grounds

  • Lawns
  • Hedges
  • Tidy-ups

Jake has been cutting lawns and trimming hedges since his early teens. He still takes on this work with smaller equipment, alongside the bigger farm and groundworks jobs.

Typical jobs

  • Lawn cutting
  • Hedge trimming and shaping
  • Strimming edges and awkward corners
  • Garden and paddock tidy-ups

Something not listed?

Ask anyway. If it needs a tractor, a digger, a steady hand with stock or a hedge cutting back, I can probably help.
