Hoof Trimming & Concrete Grooving in Ayrshire & West Coast
High-performance concrete grooving and hoof trimming for high-yielding herds. Bringing Diamond Disc technology to farms across Ayrshire, Renfrewshire, and Lanarkshire.
The Dairy Heartland
Ayrshire is home to some of the most intensive dairy units in the country. High cow traffic means concrete wears smooth faster. I bring the Diamond Disc solution that keeps up with your herd.
Why Ayrshire Farms Need Diamond Disc
Traditional flail grooving can't handle the traffic of a modern 200+ cow unit. It wears smooth in months. My Diamond Disc cuts last for years, protecting your high-value stock from splits and falls.
- Zero Vibration: Safe for slats and collecting yards
- Clean Finish: Easy to scrape and keep hygienic
- Hoof Health First: No sharp edges to cause stone bruises

Combating West Coast Conditions
Farming on the West Coast means dealing with high rainfall and high humidity. When you combine wet weather with the slurry produced by intensive dairy herds, smooth concrete becomes an ice rink. My Diamond Disc grooving cuts channels that drain liquid away from the hoof contact point. This is crucial for Ayrshire farms where cows are housed for longer periods. We ensure your collecting yards and feed passages remain safe even in the wettest months of the year.
Ayrshire has a high concentration of slatted housing units. Many farmers worry about grooving slats because traditional flail hammers can shatter the edges, ruining the structural integrity of the concrete. I use a precision diamond blade system that cuts clean, non-shatter grooves into pre-cast or in-situ slats. This restores grip for the cattle without weakening the floor, extending the lifespan of your shed while preventing the "splits" injuries common on greasy slats.
