Excavation in Hurlstone Park
Excavation done properly
ORT Constructions carries out excavation in Hurlstone Park as the first stage of building work: footings for an extension, a cut for a new slab, trenches for drainage or services, or levelling ahead of a patio or deck.
On residential sites in Hurlstone Park, the main questions are usually access for equipment and spoil trucks, how close the dig is to boundaries and existing footings, and where underground services run. We work these out at the site visit.

Local considerations
Planning excavation in Hurlstone Park
What we check first
Tight lots and shared walls make access, boundary setbacks and neighbour protection the first things we plan.
Homes in the area
Homes across Inner West include Victorian and Federation terraces, semis and cottages, many on narrow lots with rear lane access. We look at the existing structure, site access and levels in Hurlstone 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 Hurlstone Park property during the site visit.
