It has done the groundwork for thousands of homes and commercial buildings around the Hamilton area over the past 14 years.

So it’s entirely appropriate that Vision Complete Earthworks is itself rooted on strong foundations – namely the Piso family.

Pienaar (Willie) Piso is the founder of the operation that currently runs 24 trucks and 20-odd pieces of earthmoving machinery 

His wife Magdel is the matriarch of the family business – working as a project manager as well as looking after the health and wellbeing of the staff and family alike, reckons son Pienaar…known as Piso or Pienaar Junior to distinguish him from his Dad.

He is a co-owner of VCE, along with younger brother Armand and Pienaar senior. Adding to the family dynamic, Pienaar and Magdel’s nephews, Christiaan and Adriaan Badenhorst, also work for VCE.

Remarkably, this is the second earthmoving business that the Piso family has built from scratch.
