ROCK BREAKING GREENBANK
We specialise in hydraulic rock breaking across the Gold Coast and hinterland — from light surface rock through to solid basalt that turns away other contractors. Honest hourly rates, the right size breaker for the job, and we don't sit on the meter.
Local note — Excavation and set-out for sandstone and block retaining to hold the level changes between pads on sloping acreage.
ROCK BREAKING FROM $160 – $220 / HR — GREENBANK
Hydraulic rock breaking is charged at an hourly rate that reflects the slower work and the wear on the gear. Smaller machines start around $160/hr; the larger 5T + heavy breaker package runs $200–$220/hr. We always estimate likely hours upfront so you can budget — and we'll stop and talk before blowing past the estimate.
Local rock note: 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.
ROCK BREAKING ACROSS 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.
