Earthworks and site preparation by Select Civil Group in the Geelong region

Earthworks & Excavation

Earthworks

Land clearing, grading, bulk cut and fill and compaction for residential and commercial sites across Geelong and the Bellarine. We get the ground right so everything after it goes smoothly. Quotes back within 24 hours.

Every Project Starts with the Ground

Every construction project starts with the ground. Select Civil Group provides earthworks services across the Geelong and Bellarine region, including land clearing, grading, levelling, bulk cut and fill, and soil compaction. Whether you are preparing a single residential lot or a multi-stage subdivision, we have the machinery and the experience to get the ground right.

Proper earthworks are the foundation of everything that follows. Poorly prepared ground leads to drainage problems, foundation issues, and costly rework down the line. We use laser-guided grading equipment and work to engineering specifications to ensure your site is prepared correctly the first time, with spoil removal and disposal handled as part of the service.

Andrew is on the tools and on site throughout, so you deal directly with the person running the job from the first quote through to the final level check. No subbie chains, no chasing the office for an update - just clean, accurate earthworks delivered to spec and on schedule.

What We Do

From a single residential lot to large-scale subdivision earthworks, every job is quoted on the specifics of your site.

Land clearing and laser-guided grading on a site in the Geelong region

Land Clearing & Grading

Vegetation removal and laser-guided grading to bring a site to the correct level and profile. We clear, strip and grade to your engineer's specifications so the site is ready for the next stage.

Bulk cut and fill earthworks on a residential site in Geelong

Bulk Cut & Fill

Large-scale cut and fill operations to balance earth across your site, reducing spoil cartage and achieving the required formation levels. We work to the volumes and tolerances your engineer specifies.

Mechanical compaction of fill material on a site in the Bellarine region

Compaction

Mechanical compaction of fill material to engineering specifications. Where testing is required before the next stage can proceed, we work to that program and keep the build moving forward.

Spoil removal and disposal from an earthworks site in the Geelong region

Spoil Removal & Disposal

Cartage and legal disposal of excess material from the site, handled as part of the earthworks scope. You do not need to coordinate a separate contractor - we take care of it from start to finish.

A single residential lot is a very different scope to a multi-stage subdivision. We provide an obligation-free written quote within 24 hours once we have the site details.
