Excavation & Site Clearing — Modbury Heights 5092 · about 15 km from the CBD
Excavation and site clearing in Modbury Heights.
Modbury Heights (5092) is 15.4 km north-east of the Adelaide CBD, in the City of Tea Tree Gully. For a cut, strip or bulk dig here the work is decided by the ground and by how a machine reaches the block: driveway grades vary block to block; most sites take standard machines with a considered approach path.
Reading the ground before the first bucket in Modbury Heights
Modbury Heights carries elevated rolling ground with long views south-west across the plains. On ground like this a cut is a levels problem before it is a digging problem: cuts are set against the finished levels, batters are kept stable, and truck access is built on the grade so loads move without bogging.
Every cut starts from the survey and the engineer's levels. We strip, cut and cart to those levels and prove them on completion, so the slab crew walks onto a pad they can pour on rather than a set of assumptions.
Access on Modbury Heights blocks
Modbury Heights's housing is 1970s–80s brick family homes on elevated blocks, many mid-renovation, and access is driveway grades vary block to block; most sites take standard machines with a considered approach path. The machine is matched to the gate: a compact excavator where side access is a single driveway or a gap beside the house, or a larger machine where the block and the street allow it. The written scope names the machine so nobody is surprised on the morning.
What goes wrong on Modbury Heights site cuts
Three things turn a Modbury Heights excavation into an argument: a cut left out of level, spoil left for the client to move, and services struck because nobody potholed. We price cartage to licensed facilities per load with tip fees stated, and we use Before You Dig plans with potholing where the plans are unreliable.
From strip to certified levels
The same sequence every time, so the programme holds.

How a Modbury Heights cut is priced
The written response sets out the strip, the cut, cartage per load and any rock allowance named openly. Rock found below the tested level is a documented variation with evidence, never something quietly absorbed into the final invoice.
