Excavation in Long Point
What's different about digging in Long Point
Long Point, in short
Long Point sits about 47 kilometres south-west of the city. You'll recognise it by Long Point, Georges River and Long Point station. It's ringed by Minto Heights, Macquarie Fields and Kentlyn. What's changing: acreage rebuilds, pools and sheds cut into the rock, and retaining on the gorge slopes.
The houses, and what they need
Most blocks in Long Point, around Long Point, are acreage and bushland-block homes on the gorge edge. Near Long Point, the bigger blocks are clearing, dam and shed work. The work that comes out of Long Point is rock excavation, retaining walls and pool digs.
The ground under Long Point
Out toward Long Point, Long Point sits on Hawkesbury sandstone with rock close to the surface on the Georges River gorge edge. Because the Long Point rock is shallow near Georges River, the boundary is sawn to protect the neighbour and the middle is broken out. Around Macquarie Fields, the clay is reactive, so fill goes in in compacted layers.
The council, access, and getting to you
Long Point is in Campbelltown City Council, and the Long Point blocks carry bushfire and tree protection controls, dug to the approved plans. Machines come in to Long Point off Wedderburn Road or Georges River Road, and the rural block leaves room to move and stockpile.
How it runs

Excavation in Long Point, answered
How much does excavation cost in Long Point?
It depends on the volume of material, the ground (hawkesbury sandstone with rock close to the surface on the georges river gorge edge), access for the machine and how far spoil has to be carted. 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.
Do I need council approval before you dig in Long Point?
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.
How long does an excavation job take in Long Point?
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.
Is there rock in Long Point?
On the escarpment edge, yes. Hawkesbury sandstone with rock close to the surface on the Georges River gorge edge. Toward Wedderburn, Appin, Wilton and the Georges River gorge, sandstone is usually within the first metre, ripped where it’s weathered and broken where it isn’t. It’s in the quote when the site look finds it.
Can you do house pads, dams and driveways on my Long Point acreage?
Yes. House and shed pads benched into the rolling ground, dams shaped in clay, long driveways boxed and based, and clearing done to the Cumberland Plain woodland and bushfire rules. Mine subsidence approval applies on some southern blocks and is checked first.
My Long Point block is in a mine subsidence area. Does that affect the dig?
It affects the approval more than the dig. Mine Subsidence Advisory NSW has to approve the build, and that can set conditions on footings and fill. We flag it at the site look and dig to what’s approved.
Why do slabs and driveways crack around Long Point?
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.
Do you do knock-down rebuild site cuts in Long Point?
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.
