How it goes
The build sequence at Adelaide
Every job follows the same sequence, and the sequence is what makes the finished work hold up. Bulk and detailed earthworks, cut and fill, pad preparation and regrading, plus full stormwater solutions: surface falls, ag-drains behind walls and along boundaries, pits, slotted channels and connections to a legal point of discharge.
01
Levels are shot across the site and the path of the water is mapped
02
Cut and fill reshapes the ground and establishes the falls
03
Stormwater trenches are cut falling to the discharge point
04
Ag-pipe wrapped in geofabric is bedded in screened aggregate
05
Pits and channel drains are set at the low points and connected
06
Trenches are backfilled, compacted and the surfaces reinstated

Adelaide is 0.01 km north of the Adelaide CBD and inside the 60 km service area. The ground is recorded as ground that moves with the seasons, so where the water goes is the first question, and the levels are designed around the answer. The scope is written from what is measured and seen on site, not from an assumed rate or a photo.
Why AOI
Scope and sequence, not guesswork
Earthworks and Drainage at Adelaide is priced from a written scope that lists what is included before anything is cut, dug or poured. The same team that scopes the work builds it, so the plan that is approved is the plan that gets built.
