HOUSE EXCAVATION TUGUN
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 — Slab cleans, footing dig and pad prep for Tugun knockdown-rebuilds. We coordinate with the demolition crew so handover is smooth.
PAD AND FOOTINGS $4,500 – $18,000 — TUGUN
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: Tugun is predominantly coastal sand over reactive clay, with the water table sitting close to the surface on lower blocks toward the creek. Rock is uncommon — access and dewatering are the typical challenges.
