About from company website

Founded in 1963 by James Christopher Balls, J C Balls & Sons began as a small plant hire venture with a single JCB 3 machine. Over the decades, the company has significantly expanded its operations and services. Today, it employs over 100 skilled professionals and operates a fleet of more than 50 machines and 30 lorries, establishing itself as a leading plant hire and contracting business in the East Midlands.

The company's services now encompass a wide range, including extensive plant hire, operated and self-drive options, and a contracting division that handles earthworks, drainage, concreting, and small civil engineering projects. They also offer haulage solutions with a diverse fleet of tipper lorries and dump trucks, alongside engineering services for ground profiling and machine control. A commitment to sustainability is evident through their recycling operations, transforming inert waste into high-quality recycled aggregates.

J C Balls & Sons prides itself on delivering reliable and professional services across the UK, supporting projects of all sizes from small domestic work to major commercial and civil engineering schemes. Their approach emphasizes quality, efficiency, accuracy, and a strong commitment to safety, backed by decades of experience and cutting-edge equipment.
