We have been working closely with Jex Plant Ltd now for several years and are very happy with the service they provide us.

A lot of our work proves to be very complicated as we often work on SSSI’s and other areas of natural beauty or importance. We work in a medium sized team but are often spread very thinly over a large area and are very much in the public eye.

We owe a lot to Jex Plant Ltd for the success of our operations. They are a very helpful company who always comply with our requirements including biodegradable oil on all plant. Their operatives are experienced and competent at their jobs and their service in terms of repairing and maintaining their plant is good too
as we often have plant in remote locations which can prove difficult to work on.

I have attached a few pictures showing some of their machines we have on hire from them. They show a 20t 0 tail swing excavator being used for erosion protection on a barge, an 8t excavator being used to profile a flood bank and some pictures of their operatives work including a fully profiled flood bank and
a footpath incorporating plastic piled retaining flood barrier.

I would not hesitate in recommending Jex Plant for any further work.

Jex Plant UK Ltd attended site October 2008 with the scope of works removal of silt from two lagoons to a specified location within the Quarry boundary.

Historically speaking, movement of silt from the lagoons would normally be carried out by way of load and haul practices. Moblie plant requiremnets for such an operation are Excavator and three articulated dumpers. Using load and haul techniques for silt movement has in the past raised cost, environmental and safety issues and a s such a new approach was sought.

Jex Plant offered the right solution which in turn met our company requirements for improved targeted areas of Health and Safety while at the same time impacting on cost.

Using Jex Plant UK Ltd for such an essential operation carried with it many benefits.

Firstly the use of pumps for silt movemnets negated the need for increased traffic movements on site and removed many of the Health and Safety issues associated with Load and Haul operations in and around the silt lagoon areas.

Secondly, the cost and energy saving was apparent by way of silt moved against manpower and fuel use.

Silt movement can be a messy affair but through the use of Jex Plant, existing haul roads and access areas to the silt lagoon areas remained in good condition.

Jex PLant UK delivered in its promise for the sfae extraction of silt from our lagoon and in keeping with a tight timescale and budget. Should the requirement present itself once again for the movement of silt, I would ask Jex Plant to return.

Your team worked extremely hard and once started put in long hours (including a weekend) to complete the job without stopping. In view of all this I consider your fees for the job were most reasonable.

I hope it will be many years before the mill lake becomes silted up again. However should this happen, please rest assured that I shall seek your services once more.

With renewed thanks

Stage 1 of the project was originally awarded to Birse Civils Ltd in May 2003, the contract for the project was the EEC option C for both stages 1 & 2. Because of the nature of the stage 1 works we required a local ‘user friendly’ subcontractor who could adapt and supply to our ever increasing requiremnets and would endeavour to carry out our works both timely and conscientiously.

Stage 2 of the project was eventually awarded in March 2004, from this date we have looked at Jex Plant Ltd to both supply a consistant level of skilled labour but also to provide a fill-in between larger subcontract packages.

I would therefore have no hesitation in giving my recommendation for Jex Plant Ltd to both internal and external companies.

Yours faithfully,

I met Peter Jex approximately three years ago when he was on site to collect some sand for one of his customers and by chance the conversation came up that I was about to clear out one of our lagoons in the quarry.

The method of clearing them up until then was to hire three dumpers and an excavator which was a very messay procedure.

Peter explained that he had used a pumping method in the past on other jobs therefore I took him over to see the lagoon, after assessing the job, Peter came back with aprice and a date was agreed.

On completion, I and the company were very happy with the amount of product pumped and that safety was a high level, at the end of the job there was no mess to clear away.

Since then we have used Peter a further three times and other sites with WBB Minerals have been in contact with him with a view of using the same system.
