QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU DIG
Clear answers for Adelaide homeowners
What types of earthworks does CHJ handle in Adelaide?
CHJ focuses on residential earthworks, ground preparation, compact excavation, trenching, yard levelling, soil removal, landscaping preparation and selected concrete paths and patios.
How much do earthworks cost in Adelaide?
Pricing depends on access, ground conditions, project size, machine time, labour, disposal and required materials. An on-site assessment is the best way to prepare a useful quote.
Can you access narrow Adelaide backyards?
Compact machinery may suit many residential access situations. Gate width, height restrictions, surfaces, slopes and safe machine access need to be checked for each property.
Do I need underground service plans before trenching?
Underground services must be considered before excavation. South Australian guidance recommends obtaining current utility information through Before You Dig Australia, while remembering that not every private service is shown.
Can you prepare ground for concrete?
Yes. CHJ can discuss excavation, levelling and base preparation for planned paths, patios and pads, as well as selected concrete work.
