HOUSE EXCAVATION HELENSVALE
House excavation is precision earthmoving — getting your slab pad to the engineered level, the footings dug clean, and the site bench ready for the slab crew. We work directly from your engineer's plans and use GPS-guided grading so the levels are right first time.
Local note — Base layer prep and compaction for granny flats, sheds, and entertainment area pours.
PAD AND FOOTINGS $4,500 – $18,000 — HELENSVALE
Standard suburban slab pad (flat block, no rock) sits in the $4,500–$8,500 range. Sloped blocks needing benching, rock breaking, or larger footprints push $9,000–$18,000+. Always priced after looking at the engineer's plans and the block.
Local rock note: Helensvale's soils are mostly stable clay-loam with some sandy patches near the waterways. Rock is uncommon. Most blocks excavate cleanly and predictably.
