Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is civil excavation and how is it different from general excavation?

    Civil excavation involves large-scale digging, earthmoving and site preparation for public and commercial infrastructure projects. This can include preparing land for roads, subdivisions, utility pipelines or drainage systems. Unlike general excavation, which may involve smaller residential or landscaping work, civil excavation requires compliance with engineering standards, local regulations and often involves heavier machinery and specialised skills.

  • How much does civil excavation typically cost?

    Costs vary depending on the project’s scale, soil type, site access and specific requirements like trenching, grading or bulk removal. Factors like rock excavation or wet weather delays can affect pricing. Getting a site-specific quote is the best way to understand costs, as civil excavation projects often require tailored planning and resource allocation.

  • How long does a civil excavation project usually take?

    Timeframes vary widely depending on the job size and complexity. A small commercial pad might take a few days, while large-scale excavation for roadworks or subdivisions can take weeks. Factors like weather, permit approvals and site accessibility all play a role. An experienced team will offer a reliable estimate based on a site assessment.
