🚜 FLEET FEATURE: GPS FINAL TRIM GRADER

Ever wondered how we get surfaces that precise? 👇

Our GPS Final Trim Grader is designed to deliver pinpoint accuracy on every pass. Using advanced satellite technology, it automatically controls blade height and position to match exact design levels - no guesswork, no rework.

What does that mean on the ground?
✔️ Smoother, more accurate finishes
✔️ Faster project delivery
✔️ Less material waste
✔️ Consistent results across the entire site

From road construction to large-scale civil and mining projects, this machine plays a critical role in achieving the high-quality outcomes our clients expect.

It’s not just a grade - it’s precision in motion.

𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 | 𝐒𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐓 𝐁𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐋𝐄𝐘

From one grader to 140+ machines. That's the journey of Stuart Bentley who has built Essjay Contracting from the ground up with one mindset:
👉 Back your decisions.
👉 Take ownership.
👉 Deliver, every time.

What started in 2012 as a single machine and Stuart as the only operator, is now a team of 100+ delivering across some of Australia’s toughest projects.

For Stuart, it’s simple:

“𝘐𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰 𝘪𝘵. 𝘕𝘰 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘤𝘶𝘵𝘴. 𝘕𝘰 𝘨𝘢𝘱𝘴. 𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸𝘴 𝘶𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘪𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘦."

And while the projects have grown, these key points haven't changed
🦺 Safety comes first
⚙️ Technology drives precision
👷‍♂️ Good people make the difference

🔥We also put Stuart on the spot with a few quick-fire questions and no surprises, his answers reflect the way he works 👇

He’s backing night shift over early starts and it’s grader over dozer every time.

The industry? He sums it up in one word: challenging. But it’s also what keeps him driven.

When it comes to the future, it’s the technology coming through that excites him most.

Off the clock, it’s a BBQ over a pub feed and he’d take a remote site over a local job without hesitation.

And if you’re wondering… smoko is sorted with a chicken toastie 🥪
