FAQ

How do you calculate excavation cost?

Can I operate an excavator myself?

Yes, you can operate an excavator yourself. However, it is not recommended that you do so unless you have experience operating heavy equipment. If you are not familiar with how to safely operate an excavator, it is best to hire a professional to do so for you.

Do I need council approval for excavation?

You may need council approval for excavation if you are excavating on a site that is considered to be heritage-listed or if the excavation will disturb any underground infrastructure, like water or power lines. You should always check with your local council to see what regulations apply to your specific situation.

What is trenching excavation?

Trenching excavation is a type of excavation where a long, narrow hole is dug in the ground. It is often used for installing or repairing underground utilities, such as water and sewage lines. The hole is called a trench, and the process of digging it is called trenching.

What's the difference between excavation and earthmoving?

Excavation refers to the selective removal of earth from an area, while earthmoving generally refers to the movement of the earth from one place to another, regardless of whether or not any earth is removed in the process.

Excavation is often used when creating a foundation for a structure or when digging a trench. It is also used to remove soil that has been contaminated with hazardous materials. Earthmoving, on the other hand, is commonly used in construction projects and land reclamation projects.
