Services
Tight Access Excavation
Our tight access excavation services utilize compact machinery to create functional spaces in confined areas. We specialize in underhouse enlargements, backyard clearouts, and land leveling for steep blocks. This service enables homeowners to maximize property equity by transforming previously unusable spaces into storage areas, car spaces, or living zones while maintaining structural integrity.
Underpinning
We provide structural underpinning solutions to reinforce failing foundations and footings. Our engineers design systems to support existing structures during renovations or new construction. This service addresses subsidence issues, allowing for safe expansion of living spaces and preventing future structural damage through engineered concrete solutions.
Retaining Walls
Our retaining wall construction uses Besser block, sandstone, and timber to create stable, aesthetically pleasing structures. Designed to withstand overturning and water uplift forces, these walls enable land reshaping on steep blocks. We build retaining systems that integrate with drainage solutions to ensure long-term stability for residential and commercial developments.
Needle and Propping
This service involves installing temporary beams and props to stabilize structures during partial demolition. We implement engineered systems that allow safe removal of load-bearing walls while maintaining structural integrity. Our team follows structural engineer specifications to enable subsequent excavation and renovation work in residential and commercial buildings.
Drainage Solutions
We implement compliant drainage systems following AS3500.3.1 standards to prevent rising damp and foundation damage. Our services include trenching, slab drainage, and sub-surface water redirection. By addressing improper drainage causes, we resolve existing damp issues and protect properties from future moisture-related structural problems through engineered water management systems.
