Our Complete Site Preparation Process
Initial Site Survey and Analysis: Comprehensive assessment of topography, soil conditions, drainage requirements, and access challenges. We coordinate with geotechnical engineers and identify environmental considerations before preparation begins.
Planning and Design Phase: Cut and fill calculations, drainage design integration, and equipment access planning. We work with your engineers, ensuring site preparation aligns with construction requirements.
Land Clearing and Grubbing: Systematic vegetation removal protects native species while managing erosion control. Selective clearing preserves important trees where possible with complete debris removal.
Excavation and Earthworks: Precise cut and fill operations creating level building pads. Our operators adjust techniques based on Logan’s clay soil conditions and moisture levels.
Utility Coordination: Direct work with Energex, Urban Utilities, and telecommunications providers, coordinating service connections during preparation, preventing construction delays.
Compaction and Testing: Systematic density achievement with real-time testing ensuring engineering specifications before construction handover.

Frequently Asked Questions About Site Preparation in Logan
Logan’s reactive clay soils expand and contract with moisture changes, requiring specialised compaction techniques and comprehensive drainage systems. Our team adjusts preparation methods based on soil classification and current moisture levels, ensuring stable foundations that handle Logan’s variable weather conditions.
Residential building pads typically require 3-5 days, depending on site complexity and weather conditions. Commercial and industrial site preparation ranges from 1-3 weeks based on size and earthwork requirements. We provide accurate timelines after initial site assessment, considering Logan’s seasonal weather patterns.
Logan City Council requires development approval for most site preparation work. We assist with permit applications and ensure all earthworks comply with council engineering standards. Our team coordinates with council inspectors throughout the preparation process.
Comprehensive stormwater management is critical in Logan’s climate. We install temporary drainage during preparation and permanent systems integrated with your construction requirements. Our drainage design prevents erosion and manages runoff according to council specifications.
Our specialised rock-breaking equipment handles hard material encounters without project delays. We assess rock depth and hardness, then deploy appropriate hydraulic hammers or alternative techniques to maintain your preparation timeline.
