Subsoil Drainage & Landslip Repairs
Water is often a major factor in unstable ground. Effective subsoil drainage can help manage groundwater, reduce saturation and direct water away from areas vulnerable to erosion, slips and ground movement.
We provide practical earthmoving solutions to repair landslips, improve drainage and restore damaged ground, helping protect roads, driveways, properties, paddocks and other areas affected by water and ground movement.
Subsoil Drainage
Subsoil drainage is used to help control groundwater beneath the surface and prevent water from building up within the soil.
Our work can include excavating drainage trenches, installing subsoil drainage, placing drainage aggregate, managing outlets and reshaping affected ground to help move water away from unstable areas.
Proper drainage can be an important part of preventing further erosion and helping maintain the stability of slopes, banks, driveways and developed areas.
Landslip Repairs
When ground moves or a bank slips, it can affect roads, driveways, properties, paddocks, drainage systems and surrounding land.
We carry out landslip and slip repairs, removing unsuitable or unstable material where required, reshaping affected areas and rebuilding ground using suitable materials.
Depending on the site, repairs can involve excavation, undercutting, drainage, filter cloth, drainage aggregate, rock placement, backfilling and compaction to restore the area and improve its resistance to further movement.
Erosion & Ground Stabilisation
We can also assist with erosion control and ground stabilisation, particularly where water flow has caused washouts, scouring or damage to existing ground.
By addressing both the damaged ground and the movement of water through the site, we can provide a practical approach to restoring affected areas.
Every site is different, so the required earthworks and drainage solution will depend on the ground conditions, extent of the damage and surrounding environment.
