Site Preparation Services in New Zealand - Industry Research Report

Digging deep: Surging demand for site preparation services has built up industry revenue

The Site Preparation Services industry is characterised by its many small-scale operators that provide demolition, earthmoving, levelling and wet hire services on a contract basis for local construction firms. Most industry operators have enjoyed strong demand providing site preparation and building foundation work on housing and non-residential building projects. Capital expenditure in these markets reached record heights in response to historically low interest rates and strong population growth. Some firms have also derived solid demand for site preparation work on non-building markets, although weak demand from the non-transport infrastructure and mining markets has constrained the industry's performance.

Industry players primarily perform earthmoving work, which includes excavation, levelling construction sites, trench digging and overburden removal. The industry also includes firms that provide building demolition services, and lease plant or equipment with an operator.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
