Earthmoving in Byron Bay

Earthmoving’s the start of any solid project. It’s about shaping the ground so everything that follows sits on the right foundation. We take care of digging, levelling and clearing with the right gear for the job. Planning each site properly means we get accurate levels, clean finishes and good drainage from the start. Every site’s different, so we adjust for soil, slope and space to get the best result. It’s not glamorous work, but it’s the part that makes sure everything else goes smoothly. When the groundwork’s right, the rest of the build just falls into place.

Demolition in Byron Bay

Demolition needs more than brute force. It’s about knowing what you’re working with, planning the order and keeping things safe from start to finish. We handle everything from small residential knockdowns to bigger site clears, using excavators and tippers to break down and cart away debris. The goal’s always the same—a clean, safe and level site that’s ready to build on. We keep waste sorted and recycled where possible to keep things efficient and environmentally responsible. Once we’re done, you can roll straight into the next stage without delays or surprises.

Tight Access Excavations in Byron Bay

Tight sites can be a headache, but with the right gear, they’re no drama. We use compact excavators and a posi-track that can fit through narrow gates, down driveways or on steep ground. These machines pack plenty of power without the bulk, making them perfect for detailed work in small spaces. Every move’s planned to avoid damage and keep the job clean. Limited access work’s ideal for pool digs, trenching, small site prep and landscaping projects. It’s the careful, skilled kind of digging that takes patience, planning and good control on the levers.

Machinery Hire in Byron Bay

Sometimes you’ve got the job sorted, you just need the right machine to back you up. We hire out reliable, well-kept gear for both wet and dry hire. Our 9-tonne tipper’s wet hire only, while the 5-tonne and 2-tonne excavators and posi-track can go either way. Everything’s regularly serviced, clean and ready to work. Hiring’s a smart way to save time and costs—you get the equipment you need, when you need it, without the upkeep. Whether it’s digging, hauling or levelling, our machinery’s built to handle tough sites and keep your project moving.

Available equipment:

• 9-tonne tipper — wet hire only
• 5-tonne excavator — wet or dry hire
• 2-tonne excavator — wet or dry hire

Retaining Walls in Byron Bay

Retaining walls do the heavy lifting when it comes to shaping land. They stop soil from shifting, control drainage and turn steep ground into usable space. We build walls that look good and hold strong, using rock, concrete sleepers or timber depending on the job. The trick’s getting the base right and setting up proper drainage so the wall lasts. With the right plan, they don’t just hold ground—they make a site safer and easier to work with. A well-built retaining wall adds strength, structure and value to any property.
