From a knock-down rebuild to a new estate pad, each service has its own page with the detail.
Leppington sits about 40 kilometres south-west of the city. The markers are Leppington station, Leppington town centre (planned) and Scalabrini. It's ringed by Edmondson Park, Austral, Rossmore, Bringelly and Denham Court. What's changing: estate subdivision, bulk earthworks, detention basins and civil works, and pools and new-home site-cuts.
Around Leppington, near Leppington station, you're mostly on new-release estate homes on small lots, with ongoing land subdivision. Near Leppington station, knock-down rebuilds are the running theme. In Leppington that's bulk earthworks, site cuts and detention basin more often than not.
Leppington sits on Wianamatta shale over reactive clay on the growth-release land, out toward Leppington station. On the flat Leppington blocks around Leppington town centre (planned), the fall has to be cut into the pad and the trench because the ground gives none of its own. Around Austral, reactive clay, so the fill is layered and compacted.
Leppington is in Liverpool City Council; the Leppington station end carries no overlay, so cut and fill is DA or CDC work. The crew reaches the Leppington job off Rickard Road or Bringelly Road, past Edmondson Park.
Every job follows the same sequence, whether it's a single trench or a full site cut.
A trench can be a day, a basement can be weeks. Dates come with the quote, not after.

Every job gets a written quote after a site look, with the dig, cartage and cleanup spelled out, so you know what’s included before anything starts.
Usually, if the excavation is part of a build. Cut and fill beyond set limits, work near boundaries and anything on a lot with a flood, bushfire or heritage overlay needs approval as part of the DA or CDC. We work to the approved plans; check with your certifier before the dig is booked.
A trench, pool dig or single pad is a day or two; a knock-down site cut or a basement runs longer and depends on volume, ground and weather. Dates come with the quote, not after.
Rarely. Wianamatta shale over reactive clay on the growth-release land. Shale under the clay is ripped rather than broken. Real rock work is a North Shore and Eastern Suburbs problem, not a south-west one.
Yes, and across Liverpool and Fairfield it’s the most common job. The old house down, slab and footings out, the block stripped, and two pads cut and compacted to the engineer’s spec on the clay.
Yes. The Growth Area lots west of the M7 are a big part of the work: topsoil stripped, pad cut and compacted to the precinct spec, trenches for services, and spoil carted or balanced on site. Bulk earthworks on the release stages too.
Reactive clay. It swells in wet winters and shrinks in dry summers, and anything poured on loose or uncompacted fill moves with it. A pad cut and filled in compacted layers to the engineer’s spec is what stops the new slab doing the same thing.
Yes. The old house down, slab and footings out, the block stripped and the new pad cut and compacted, as one run if you want the demolition handled too.
