Residential and Commercial Earthworks

Shane and the team here at SMC cut their teeth in the world of heavy machinery, building forestry roads throughout the North Island – which make the best use of extremely difficult terrain. Since moving to Queenstown in 2013, we’ve put our strongest foot forward and applied our digger and excavator driving talent to both residential and commercial building developments. Over the years we’ve played a key role in the development of a number of residential subdivisions in the Queenstown Lakes region – including Jacks Point, Lake Hayes Estate, Bridesdale Farm, Shotover Country, Threepwood, Glen Tui Heights and more. Working primarily within the boundaries of the Queenstown Lakes District Council, we comply with all QLDC Engineering Standards. All engineering works undertaken on your development will be carried out in accordance with the Queenstown Lakes District Council’s policies and standards, being QLDC’s Land Development and Subdivision Code of Practice adopted on 3rd June 2015 and subsequent amendments to that document up to the date of issue of any resource consent.

We provide a full stack of residential and commercial earthworks services. We’ll take care of every aspect of the pre-build earthworks; including site scrapes, digging footings, digging service trenches and drains. Then once the building is up, we’ll bring your vision to life. We’ll build your lawns, driveways, foot paths, prepare retaining walls, stack your rock work paths and wall, and prepare your driveway.
