What We Do

Built for the tough jobs

From a single machine on a farm road to full mining-site operations, we bring the fleet, the operators and the reliability to get it done safely.

Plant Hire

A full fleet of construction machines ready to go — digger loaders, tippers, excavators, graders, wheel loaders, dozers and more, dry or wet hire.

Earthmoving, Road & Civil Works

General site work, mining operations, site rehabilitation and road construction — planned, cut and compacted to spec on time.

Qualified Operators

Professional, safety-focused operators with over 100 years of cumulative experience — so your job is completed precisely and without surprises.

The Fleet

Our machines & services

One call gets you the right machine — and the operator to run it.

Who We Are

A family business that started with one machine

J.E. Civils was established in 2013 by two Van Zyl brothers from Vredendal. They began with a single CAT 416C backhoe loader, operating it themselves on local sites — driven by a simple vision of building a business around quality and professionalism.

Today we’re a hands-on plant hire company specialising in road works, earthmoving and civil projects, with standing contracts on mines and farms across the region.

  • Hands-on, owner-run business you can actually reach
  • Reliable, well-maintained machines and transport
  • Safety-first crews with decades of on-site experience
