Excavation and site preparation for homes, builders and developers
Ademco Solutions provides excavation across Sydney and the Blue Mountains, from site cuts and bulk earthworks for new homes to detailed excavation in tight spaces. We are based in Penrith and run our own excavators, so we can move quickly when your builder needs the site ready.
Excavation often follows demolition, and doing both with one contractor keeps the program simple. We cut and level the site, dig footings, trenches and service lines, remove the spoil and leave the block ready for the slab or the next trade.

Excavation done right the first time
Good excavation is about getting the levels right, protecting what is underground and moving material efficiently. Get any of those wrong and the cost lands on the trades that follow. We work from your plans, locate services before we dig and cut to the grades your builder or engineer has specified.
We handle site cuts and benching for new homes, footings and pier holes, trenches for services and drainage, pool and tank excavations, and bulk cut and fill on larger sites. Tight and restricted-access sites are part of the job, and we plan the access and the machine before we arrive.
Spoil is loaded out and carted to an approved facility, or kept on site as fill if that suits your plans, and the block is left clean, level and ready for the slab.

Excavation FAQs
How much does excavation cost?
It depends on the volume of material to move, the ground conditions, site access and how far the spoil has to be carted. We inspect first and give you a free, itemised quote.
Can you get into a tight site?
Yes. We handle tight and restricted-access sites and check the access when we quote, so the right machine turns up on the day.
Do you locate underground services before digging?
Yes. We check the Before You Dig Australia plans and locate services on site before excavation starts.
Do you remove the spoil?
Yes. Excess soil and rock is loaded out and taken to an approved facility, or reused on site as fill if that suits your plans.
Can you do the demolition and the excavation together?
Yes, and it is usually the most efficient way to do it. One crew and one program, and the site goes from standing house to ready to build in one continuous job.
