EARTHMOVING GREENBANK
Greenbank is one of Logan's largest and fastest-growing acreage suburbs — a mix of established rural-residential blocks and big new custom home builds on the Brisbane–Gold Coast corridor. Sollid Solutions works Greenbank regularly, including a recent multi-pad dream-home site cut where we moved over 700m³ of soil to set a seven-bedroom home, guest house and shed each on their own level.
LOCAL GROUND CONDITIONS — GREENBANK
Greenbank blocks are typically deep clay soils over weathered rock, with sandstone and floaters showing up on the higher, sloping acreage. Larger blocks often need balanced cut-and-fill and engineered compaction before slab work, and we almost always recommend a site visit to price rock and fill accurately.
