Civil Construction
Our civil construction crews combine extensive experience with a diverse range of heavy machinery to tackle a wide spectrum of projects. We possess the expertise and resources to manage earthworks of all scales, from intricate land development sites and the construction of dams and water storage facilities to the comprehensive development of major roadways. Our comprehensive service offering encompasses: major bulk earthworks, site clearing, precise cut and fill operations, excavation of basements, car parks, building platforms, and the safe construction of batters, benches, and ramps.
We are also highly proficient in the installation and construction associated with civil earthworks, including subdivisions and land developments. This expertise extends to detailed excavation work like strip footings, pad footings, and pile caps, as well as the installation of critical underground infrastructure such as potable water, fire mains, stormwater, sewer, electrical, and communication networks.
Our ability to construct and upgrade roads and car parks, including asphalt, spray seal, concrete, and block paving, is second to none. This expertise also encompasses the installation of essential road infrastructure elements such as upright kerbs, signage, line marking, wheel stops, and bollards. Furthermore, we excel in the construction of swales, detention ponds, and wetlands, contributing to sustainable water management solutions. Our reach extends to concrete infrastructure as well, where we construct retaining walls, stairs, and other essential elements.
Recycling
Our dedicated recycling facility has undergone significant advancements over the years, allowing us to provide a comprehensive array of services for the responsible management of construction and demolition waste. We are proud to specialize in reclaiming and repurposing concrete, asphalt, and brick materials, transforming them into valuable virgin materials like crushed rock and sand. This process not only minimizes the environmental impact of waste disposal but also creates a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to sourcing new materials.
Our facility boasts a range of loading and delivery options to cater to diverse client needs. Furthermore, we possess the capacity to blend, mix, and customize materials to meet specific project requirements. Our commitment to innovation and sustainability drives us to continually explore new ways to optimize the recycling process and reduce our ecological footprint.
We believe that responsible resource management is fundamental to a sustainable future. By offering this vital service, we actively contribute to minimizing landfill waste and promoting a circular economy within the construction industry.
