Earthworks & Excavation

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.

Site cuts create the level building platform needed before any construction can begin. Select Civil Group performs precision site cuts for new homes, extensions, sheds, and commercial buildings throughout Geelong and the surrounding region. We cut to the exact levels specified by your engineer, ensuring the site is ready for footings and slabs without delays.

Our operators work with modern excavation equipment and laser levels to achieve accurate, consistent results. We handle the full scope of work including topsoil stripping, cut and fill balancing, compaction, and spoil removal. If your block has a slope, a site cut is the first step to turning it into a buildable surface, and getting it right at this stage saves time and money on everything that follows.

Detail excavation is the precise digging work required for footings, trenches, service trenches, stormwater lines, and other below-ground structures. Select Civil Group performs detail excavation on residential and commercial sites across Geelong, working to engineering drawings and specifications to deliver accurate, clean results.

We use a range of excavators suited to tight-access sites and confined spaces, ensuring we can get the job done efficiently without damaging surrounding structures, landscaping, or services. Detail excavation demands accuracy, and our operators have the experience to dig to exact depths, widths, and profiles specified by your engineer or builder.
