At CDH Digger Hire, we are a family-run business proudly serving Croydon and the surrounding areas, providing reliable digger hire, concrete services and groundworks support for both homeowners and contractors.
We specialise in owner-operated and self-drive digger and dumper hire, alongside a range of groundworks services including driveways, drainage, footings, soakaways, septic tank installations and site preparation. From initial excavation through to finished surfaces, we provide the equipment, experience and practical knowledge needed to keep your project running smoothly.

With years of hands-on industry experience, we understand that every job is different. That’s why we focus on dependable service, well-maintained machinery and a personal approach — ensuring every project is completed safely, efficiently and to a high standard.

Our Bobcat E10 mini digger, with a retractable width of just 720mm and a height under one metre, allows access to tight or restricted spaces where larger machines simply can’t reach. Paired with our Slantrac HT100 tracked dumper, capable of handling skips up to 8 yards, we can move materials quickly and efficiently across site.

We also provide fencing and groundwork preparation using our hydraulic auger, capable of drilling holes up to 4 feet deep and 8 inches wide, along with specialist attachments including a ripper tooth bucket for tougher ground conditions — giving us the versatility to tackle projects of all sizes.

I contacted Mark as I had been let down by another contractor. I arranged a site visit and was pleased that Mark turned up on time and was extremely knowledgeable about bamboo. He was able to let me know the extent of how it had spread. I was really taken aback that the bamboo had become so invasive it had lifted paving and spread to next door neighbours.
Mark managed to get the whole root ball out. This was a massive job, and he was determined it was coming out regardless. I would have no hesitation in recommending hm for an excavation work. Also, if you have bamboo, he will get rid of it.
Attached pic of the root ball. Mark managed to get all the runners out which is extremely difficult to remove.
Also, he is a very honest and nice guy to deal with.

Mark removed our existing old front garden and made preparations for a new driveway. Mark was punctual every day he attended our house. He was knowledgeable and honest. A great job. I will recommend Mark again and again. Thank you

Highly recommend these guys! We had a 8m perimeter bamboo that we needed to remove and digging out by hand was not an option. This was the first time we used CDH and I was more than impressed with the service they provided. Mark turned up to site at the time we had agreed and worked non stop all day on the digger helping us to ensure all roots from the bamboo were removed and even helped us to tidy up once we were finished at the end of the day. Marks skills on the digger were second to none and we will definitely be using him again.

Mark helped me with my garden room project. He and his labourer worked hard demolishing the old brick garage and removed a large area of concret base. They filled 2 Large skips with hardcore, they had to get from the rear of the property to the front drive which was about a 50m run and made it look easy!

They were efficient, clean, tidy and above all very friendly. All at a competitive price. Mark provided the machinery aswell so the whole operation was perfect, I didnt have to arrange delivery and pick up of plant hire etc.

Thanks again Mark.

Mark initially completed some localised excavations in my garden in preparation for a retaining wall footing. I was taken back by his positive attitude and grafting through the wet weather to get the job completed the same day. We have since had he back to undertake our external works over the last 2 weeks and could not be happier. He takes great pride in his work and was giving me regular updates throughout the day. He even went out to pick up a wacker plate to save on time. I couldn't recommend him enough!!

CDH show true pride in their work. Theres no denying it they have excellent machinery, welcoming attitude and great attention to detail. The best part being Mark the operator does his job with a smile. Fuel him with a good cup of coffee and he is good to go. Really glad with the hole they've dug for a trampoline and the price was better than most.
