How it goes
The order the work happens in
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

Trenches are backfilled, compacted and the surfaces reinstated
