ABOUT

ABOUT

BACKGROUND:

Ground Breakers was established by two entrepreneurs passionate about business through innovation within the construction and quarry industry.

"The combination of skills of JC Janse van Vuuren who comes from a plant hire and transport background and Johan Meintjes who comes from a quarrying background offers the ultimate mix of skill sets required to run Ground Breakers. Both have equipment experience, Meintjies' knowledge of materials processing and Janse van Vuuren's understanding of the value of effectively operating machines at the mine and on client's sites are key ingredients in the success and standard Ground Breakers holds itself to." - Quarrying South Africa

Ground Breakers started on a quarry in Lanseria and still continues to produce aggregates there. The company has recently acquired a mine in Nietgedacht and has grown the business from strength to strength.

The Ground Breakers Group now boasts with a large fleet of delivery vehicles and a portfolio of plant and equipment large enough to service bulk orders for clients. 

 

ABOUT:

What does Ground Breakers do?

We produce and supply quality sand and stone construction aggregates as well as strong quality stock bricks for a wide range of clients - large and small.

 

We value long lasting, mutually beneficial business relationships that lead to long term gains and overall success for both ourselves and our clients.

We strive to become ground breakers on every level of our business while our aim remains to produce and supply quality sand and stone construction material for our clients.

WHY CLIENTS LOVE WORKING WITH US:

1. We produce our sand and stone construction material at Ground Breakers.

- Being producers of our products enables us to price these products at competitive rates. 

- We are also in control of the quality of product we produce and sell to our clients.

 

 

2. Ground Breakers consist of a group of companies.

- Being part of the Ground Breakers Group has given us the flexibility and capacity to customize most products to our client’s exact specifications and requirements.

AGGREGATE SUPPLIER:

Ground Breakers is a leading supplier of quality building material including: G5, G6, G7, Top Soil, Building Sand, River Sand, Plaster Sand.

We also supply directly to the public.

SCREEN HIRE:

Our company hires out the Powerscreen Warrior 800 scalping screen. Rather than sourcing expensive sand and aggregates on building sites and paying for spoils to be dumped, Ground Breakers offers the client an alternative operation whereby spoils and site rubble are turned into valuable buildling materials for reuse on site. This set-up saves the client transport and other input costs plus reflects well on the structure's sustainability as recycling of materials is more environmentally acceptable. It can even assist developers to earn valuable green credits when building environmentally friendly structures.

The company offers plant hiring services which includes trucks, yellow plant as well as site clean-up services.

DEMOLITION:

The Ground Breakers Group also offers professional and reliable demolition services in and around Johannesburg.
