Excavation in Arndell Park

Excavation done properly

Most excavation we do in Arndell Park is tied to a build. We dig to the engineer's footing details, set levels from the drawings and leave the site ready for the next stage, which is often our own concrete or carpentry crew.

For commercial and larger residential work in Arndell Park, excavation is sequenced with the rest of the program so footings, slab and services can follow without delay. Spoil removal is priced separately where it is part of the scope.

Process

How we run the job

  1. 1

    Site visit

    We look at access, levels, boundaries and existing structures, and review any drawings and engineering.

  2. 2

    Services located

    Underground services are identified through Before You Dig Australia before excavation starts.

  3. 3

    Written quote

    Scope, spoil removal, allowances for rock or poor ground, and exclusions are set out in writing.

  4. 4

    Excavation

    Set out, dig to the approved levels and footing details, and keep the site safe and tidy each day.

  5. 5

    Ready for the next stage

    Levels and depths are checked so footings, slab or services can follow straight away.

Local considerations

Planning excavation in Arndell Park

What we check first

Hot western summers make shade, roof insulation and ventilation worth planning into the design from the start.

Homes in the area

Homes across Blacktown Region include brick veneer homes from the 1970s onward plus newer estates, with good rear yard space. We look at the existing structure, site access and levels in Arndell Park before pricing, so the quote reflects the actual house.

Council approval

Excavation is usually approved as part of the building work it supports. Deep cuts near boundaries can need engineering, shoring and notice to neighbours. We confirm the approval pathway for your Arndell Park property during the site visit.
