Dug to the Plans
Footings are excavated to the widths, depths, and positions shown on your plans, so formwork and steel go in where the design expects them.

Footings and building platforms dug accurately to your plans and levels.
Foundations carry the whole weight of a building, so the ground they sit on has to be right. Footings dug to the wrong depth, left on soft or disturbed soil, or set out off the plans can lead to settlement, cracked walls, and failed inspections that hold up the rest of the build.
Our foundation excavation Palmerston North team digs footings, pile holes, and building platforms for new homes, extensions, garages, and sheds. We work from your plans and set-out, dig down to firm ground at the specified depths, and keep the excavation clean and ready for your builder and any inspections.

Footings are excavated to the widths, depths, and positions shown on your plans, so formwork and steel go in where the design expects them.
We dig through topsoil and soft material to reach suitable bearing ground, giving the foundation a stable base rather than loose fill.
Clean, square trenches with loose material removed make it easier for your builder and inspector to check the excavation and move to the pour.
Accurate foundation digging at the start avoids rework later, helping your builder, concrete crew, and other trades keep to the programme without waiting on fixes.
Where a slab-on-grade is planned, we prepare a level platform at the correct height so the floor and surrounding ground work together.
Getting depths and ground conditions right from day one reduces the risk of settlement and cracking that can show up years after the build.
We follow your builder's set-out and engineer's details, and keep in touch with them about timing, so the excavation fits neatly into the build schedule.
Our operators are used to digging narrow, accurate footing trenches, keeping sides clean and square and avoiding the over-digging that wastes concrete and adds cost.
Our insured team works carefully near boundaries, existing buildings, and underground services, keeping the site safe for everyone on it throughout the dig.
As a concrete business, we understand what the pour needs from the excavation, from clean bases to accurate levels for slabs and footings.
We can stockpile soil for reuse on site or take it away, so excavated material doesn't clutter the build area or block access.
We tell you and your builder if we hit unexpected ground conditions while digging, so decisions can be made quickly rather than guessed at.
