FAQ
Excavations: your questions answered
Do you locate underground services before digging?
Service locations should be checked before excavation starts. Before You Dig Australia is the usual starting point, and we will talk through what your site needs before work begins.
Can you excavate on a site with tight access?
Often, yes. Access affects the equipment and method, so let us know about gates, driveways and slopes, or send photos with your inquiry.
Do I need approval for a site cut?
It depends on the depth, location and project. Check with your certifier or council if you are unsure. We can talk through what we know about your site at the quote stage.
