Dirt work, drainage and pads, on the date we said.
Commercial and residential site preparation. We own our equipment, we run our own trucks, and we do not subcontract the part your schedule depends on.
01 — Scope
What we are actually bidding
Open any of these for the detail a general contractor needs before putting us on a schedule. Being specific here removes most of the questions from the first call.
Site preparation & clearing
- Silt fence, wattles and construction entrances
- Timber cleared and either burned to permit or hauled
- Stockpile locations agreed in writing, not assumed
Grading & building pads
- GPS machine control on the dozer and the excavator
- Compaction to 95% standard Proctor unless specified otherwise
- As-built survey provided on completion
Drainage & storm
- RCP and HDPE, laser-set grade
- Detention ponds shaped and stabilised
- Video inspection available on request
Utilities & underground
- Trench boxes on anything over five feet, no exceptions
- Bedding and backfill to the spec, photographed before cover
Gravel, base & parking
- Geotextile where subgrade will not hold
- Rolled in lifts, not dumped and spread
02 — Equipment
Owned, not rented
Rented equipment arrives when the rental yard has it. This is the answer to "can you actually be here on the fourteenth", which is the only question that matters on a schedule.
| Machine | Class | Count | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Excavator | 20–35 t | 3 | Mass excavation, storm, ponds |
| Dozer | D5–D6 | 2 | Grading, pads, GPS control |
| Motor grader | 14 ft | 1 | Base, roads, fine grade |
| Articulated truck | 30 t | 4 | On-site haul |
| Skid steer | Track | 3 | Detail, backfill, utilities |
| Roller | Smooth / pad | 2 | Compaction |
03 — Coverage
Where we work
Seventy-five miles of the shop, further for work that runs more than a month. If you are outside it we will say so on the first call rather than bid it and disappoint you.
04 — Bid
Send us the plans
Answer these and the first call is about the schedule instead of the basics. We return most bids inside four working days.
