Earthworks & Remediation

Excavation | Decontamination | Land Restoration

We specialise in Earthworks from House sites and footings, power line and fibre trenching and installation right through to bulk earthworks and contaminated soil remediation. Our experienced team of licenced excavator operators and transport trucks can get it moved.

Due to an ever-increasing availability of development land, we understand the growing demands on infrastructure and that available sites are re-used and maximised where possible. This is particularly evident in the housing market where local councils have opened up parcels of land for redevelopment opportunities, a key indicator of the current land acquisition challenges faced by developers.

Our skilled teams are on hand to safely remove and dispose of pollutants and contaminants from soil and groundwater, such as Asbestos, lead, arsenic and hydrocarbons. Working to strict environmental regulatory requirements set out by WorkSafe New Zealand, ground materials suspected of contaminants are thoroughly tested before removal from site, with testing and clearance to confirm the finished result.
