EARTHMOVING BURLEIGH HEADS
Burleigh Heads is one of the Gold Coast's most desirable coastal suburbs — established residential, beachside renovations, and constant demand for tight-access earthworks on premium blocks. Sollid Solutions provides pool excavation, site cuts, and renovation-supporting earthmoving services across Burleigh Heads and surrounding suburbs.
LOCAL GROUND CONDITIONS — BURLEIGH HEADS
Burleigh's soil is predominantly sandy-loam closer to the coast, transitioning to heavier clay further inland. Most blocks dig cleanly, but some — particularly on the higher ground toward West Burleigh — do hit rock, so we assess each block on its own. Tight residential access is the other common challenge.

ACCESS CHALLENGES — BURLEIGH HEADS
We always plan the access before the machine arrives — the most common things we work around on Burleigh Heads jobs are:

- Established hedges, decks and pavers to protect on the way in
- Kerb-side parking limits for tipper turn-around
