Earthworks & Excavation
Driveways & access in Gatton.
New driveways, gravel resheets and all-weather access tracks.
From a fresh gravel resheet to a full new driveway with proper drainage, we build access that survives the wet season instead of washing down the hill.
We supply and cart material, shape the crown and falls, and compact it so it stays put.
What's included.
- Material supplied and carted
- Crown and falls shaped for drainage
- Proper compaction, not just spread
- Culverts and crossings where needed
- Potholes cut out, not skimmed over
- Tidy edges against lawns and fences

How we work.
01
Site walk & straight quote
We walk the block, check access and levels, and give you a real number. No mystery line items.
02
Right machine for the job
Excavator, bobcat or tipper, sized to your block so nothing gets wrecked getting in.
03
Cut, cart, compact
The dirty work, done to the level. Spoil carted off, material compacted in proper lifts.
04
Final trim & walk-off
We walk the finished job with you, tidy the site, and leave it ready for the next trade.
Tidy sites. Included, always.
Plenty of operators leave a mess for someone else. Every quote from us includes the cleanup: spoil gone, site raked off, gates shut. Not an extra. Just what a finished job means.

“Dave and the crew cut our shed pad and driveway in a day and a half. Showed up when they said they would and left the place tidier than they found it. Couldn't recommend them more.”
“Had Hartley out to level the block and put in drainage before we built. Straight shooters, fair price, no surprises on the invoice.”
“Third time we've used them on our Laidley property. Tight access down the side of the house and they made it look easy.”
Fair questions
Driveways & access FAQs.
Which gravel do you recommend?
Depends on the grade and traffic. Around Gatton we mostly run road base for the structure with a finer topping; we will talk it through when we see the driveway.
How long does a resheet last?
Built with proper falls and compaction, years. Most premature failures are drainage problems, which is exactly what we fix first.
Can you fix just the bad section?
Yes. Plenty of jobs are one washout or one boggy corner. We quote what the job needs, not the biggest version of it.
Do I need council approval?
For work inside your property, generally no. New road crossovers can need council involvement; we will tell you straight if yours does.
