Excavating on the Bellarine Peninsula
Excavating on the Bellarine Peninsula prepares residential and commercial sites for landscaping, construction and outdoor works. CMS Landscaping provides excavation for driveways, retaining walls, pathways, drainage, concrete slabs, piers and broader landscape projects, coordinating ground preparation with the work that follows. Based in Ocean Grove, we work across the Bellarine Peninsula, with projects also extending into Geelong, the Surf Coast and Southwest District.
Excavating contractors on the Bellarine Peninsula
As excavating contractors, CMS Landscaping can undertake excavation as an individual service or coordinate it with wider landscaping and construction works. The requirements of each site depend on factors such as access, existing ground conditions, levels, surrounding structures and the type of work being prepared for.
Our excavation services include residential excavation and landscape excavation for retaining walls, driveways, pathways and other outdoor projects. Soil and other excavated material can also be managed as part of the works, with spoil removal available where applicable to the project.
For larger areas requiring ground preparation, our earthworks and site prep services can include site clearing, rock removal, land levelling and site grading. Completing these works before landscaping or construction begins allows the site to be prepared around the requirements of the next stage.
Landscape excavation for outdoor projects
Because CMS Landscaping provides both excavation and landscape construction, the excavation can be considered in relation to the finished outdoor space. This is particularly useful for landscaping excavation where retaining walls, concrete, paving, gardens or other landscape features will follow.
Our drainage and trenching services can also be coordinated with excavation works. Landscape drainage needs to account for the levels and layout of the property, while trenching can prepare channels for suitable underground landscape infrastructure. Planning this work before finished surfaces, gardens and lawns are established can reduce unnecessary disturbance later in the project.
Excavation for driveways, piers and slabs across the Bellarine Peninsula
Driveway excavation prepares the required area and levels before a new driveway is constructed. CMS Landscaping can coordinate excavation with concrete or paved driveways, allowing levels, access and adjoining landscape features to be considered as part of the wider project.
Our piers and post holes service includes excavation and preparation for suitable concrete piers, foundation piers and post holes. Ground conditions, access and the required dimensions and depth influence how this excavation is completed.
For projects requiring slabs, CMS Landscaping can coordinate excavation and site preparation with concrete construction for suitable residential applications, including shed slabs, garage slabs, garden patio slabs and concrete pads.
Where buildings, boundaries, fencing or existing landscaping restrict machinery access, limited access excavation may provide an option. Tight and narrow access excavation can be assessed according to the available route, operating space, ground conditions and work required.
