Excavations by Just Walls in Geelong

Excavations Geelong

Just Walls provides professional excavation services across Geelong and the surrounding region. With over 20 years working on local blocks, we handle everything from small backyard digs to full site preparation for new builds — and because we also design and construct retaining walls, we understand exactly how earthworks and structures need to fit together.

Excavation Services We Provide

  • Site preparation and bulk earthworks for new homes and extensions
  • Footings and foundation excavation to engineering specifications
  • Trenching for drainage, plumbing and underground services
  • Cut and fill for retaining walls, terracing and landscaping
  • Driveway, shed and pool excavations
  • Tight-access excavation for established properties

The Right Machine for the Job

We run excavators from 2 tonne up to 14 tonne, so tight backyard access in an established Newtown or Belmont street gets a compact machine, while a bulk cut on a sloping Highton or Torquay block gets the size it needs. Bobcat and tipper support means spoil is loaded and carted away as we dig, keeping your site clean and the job moving.

Local Ground, Local Knowledge

Ground conditions vary a lot around Geelong — heavy clay in the northern suburbs, sandy soils near the coast, and rock where you least want it. We plan every dig around the conditions, arrange service location checks before breaking ground, and can advise where an excavation ties into permit requirements, such as retaining walls over one metre.

Areas We Service

We service Geelong and all surrounding suburbs, the Bellarine Peninsula, the Surf Coast and the Golden Plains — from Lara and Leopold through to Torquay, Ocean Grove and Bannockburn. Call 0412 445 393 for a free site assessment and quote.

Excavations FAQs

How much does excavation cost in Geelong? +

It depends on the volume of material, site access, ground conditions and how far spoil needs to be carted. We quote free after seeing the site, so you get a fixed price with no surprises.

Do you remove the spoil from site? +

Yes — we can load spoil directly into our tipper as we dig and cart it away, or stockpile it on site if you want to reuse it for backfilling and landscaping.

Can you dig near underground services? +

Yes. We arrange utility location checks before breaking ground and hand-expose around known services where needed, so pipes and cables are protected.

Can you excavate a tight-access backyard? +

In most cases, yes. Our 2 tonne excavator fits through gaps around 1.5 metres wide, which covers most side access in established Geelong suburbs.
