03 661 7200Your site. A clear next step.
Contact us with a few useful details and we'll make the first conversation more productive — you don't need to know the machinery, just what you want the site to become.
Tell us what you want to achieve, where your site is and when you would like to start. Include any plans, access constraints or measurements that will help us understand the work.
Describe the result you want, along with your site access and any timing constraints. These details help us determine the right scope, equipment, and approach for your project — ensuring accurate planning from the start.
The more information you provide upfront, the faster we can assess your needs and provide a clear, accurate quote. Whether it's a straightforward excavation or a more complex groundworks project, understanding your site conditions and goals helps us plan efficiently, avoid delays, and deliver results that meet your expectations — on time and within budget.
Before you enquire
Define the result
For a driveway, describe the vehicles and finished surface you have in mind. For a building platform, mention the plans and proposed footprint. For landscaping, explain which areas need to be raised, lowered or kept.
Find the relevant service →Show the route in
Take a view from the street, the entrance and the route to the work area. Include gates, tight corners, overhead obstructions and any surface you want protected. A clear access width is more useful than a guess about excavator size.
Read about machinery access →Bring the documents
Mention any survey, proposed levels, foundation or retaining design and ground report you already have. You can discuss these at a site visit; the enquiry form does not accept file attachments.
Prepare your project information →Explain the timing
Include your target start date and any booked builder, concrete crew or drainlayer. Let us know whether the work area must remain accessible during the job. These details help identify which parts of the sequence need coordination.
Understand project sequencing →Understand the quote
Ask whether spoil removal, imported material, access protection and final trimming are included. The scope and site conditions determine what can be confirmed and what needs further checking before work is agreed.
