Our Services
Small scale excavation and earthworks done properly — across St Helens and Tasmania’s East Coast
Liam runs a compact Kubota mini excavator purpose-built for the tight residential access common across East Coast properties — narrow gates, established gardens, structures close to the boundary. The right machine for the job, operated by someone who knows the ground.
All work is carried out to a high standard, fully insured, with flexible scheduling to suit your timeline.
Kubota Mini Excavator — Tight Access Specialist
Compact enough to get through a standard side gate. Precise enough to work alongside fences and building lines without risk to surrounding structures. The right machine for residential and small-scale jobs on the East Coast.
Tight Access Excavation
Residential blocks on the East Coast are rarely straightforward. Established gardens, timber decks, fencing right on the boundary — these are the jobs where machine size matters. The Kubota gets in, does the work accurately, and gets out without collateral damage to the surrounds.
Residential Blocks
Narrow side access, structures close to boundaries, existing landscaping — all handled cleanly. If you’ve been told a machine can’t get in, call Liam first.
Yard Cleanup & Site Clearance
Clearing overgrown yards, removing stumps, levelling uneven ground. Tidy, efficient work that leaves your property ready for whatever comes next.
Trenching & Drainage
Water main trenching, underground power, stormwater drainage, and drainage behind retaining walls across St Helens and the East Coast. When the plumber or electrician steps in after the trenching, the trench is at the right depth and ready to go — no delays, no rework.
Water & Power Trenching
Residential water main and underground power trenching for new homes and extensions. Accurate depth, clean spoil management, ready for the service contractor.
Stormwater Drainage
Drainage lines from buildings, driveways, and hard surfaces. Properly graded stormwater drainage protects foundations and landscaping from water damage — particularly on the East Coast where rainfall can be significant.
Retaining Wall Drainage
Drainage aggregate installation behind retaining structures. Hydrostatic pressure is the primary cause of retaining wall failure — drainage behind the wall is not optional.
Septic & Rural Trenching
Septic system installation trenching for rural and semi-rural properties. Precise gradient and depth management across multiple trench runs, worked accurately to your designer’s plans.
Site Preparation & Footings
Getting the ground preparation right at the start sets up every trade and every stage that follows. Site cuts, slab preparation, and footing excavation carried out accurately — coordinated directly with your builder and concreters on levels and timing.
House Site Cuts
Excavation and grading for new home construction across St Helens and the East Coast. Sloping coastal blocks, cut-and-fill management, varying ground conditions — handled by an operator who knows this specific area.
Footing Excavation
Footing excavation for new homes, extensions, sheds, and garages. Accurate depth, clean formation, ready for the concreters. We work from your building plans and coordinate directly with your builder.
Slab Preparation
Excavation to the correct depth, removal of unsuitable material, and a prepared, compacted surface that concreters can work from with confidence.
Extensions & Additions
Site preparation for extensions and additions to existing homes. Working close to existing structures requires care and precision — the compact Kubota handles this without risk to the building or surrounds.
Driveway Construction & Access
A driveway that lasts starts at the subgrade, not the surface. Full dig-out, removal of unsuitable material, grading, and compaction — built properly from the ground up.
Driveway Dig-Outs
Full subgrade excavation to the required depth, removing topsoil and unsuitable material. A properly prepared base is what separates a driveway that lasts from one that fails within a few years.
Access Roads & Rural Tracks
Access road and driveway construction across residential and rural properties. Excavation, grading, and compaction as a complete job — built to handle the East Coast weather year after year.
Landscaping & General Earthworks
From levelling sloped yards to retaining wall preparation, general earthworks and landscaping across residential properties on the East Coast.
Yard Levelling & Reshaping
Sloped or uneven yards levelled and reshaped for lawns, gardens, entertaining areas, or new landscaping. Precise work that the landscaper or turf layer can follow directly.
Retaining Wall Preparation
Excavation for retaining wall construction across residential properties in St Helens, Binalong Bay, Scamander, and surrounds. Clean formation ready for your wall contractor.
