Excavation Services Melbourne
Precision digging, trenching, and bulk excavation for residential and commercial construction projects.
About Our Excavation Services Services
VicWide Demolition provides comprehensive excavation services. Supported by a modern fleet of excavators ranging from tight-access mini-diggers to heavy 20-ton machines, our skilled operators deliver precise earthmoving for foundations, basements, swimming pools, and service trenches.
Bulk and Detailed Excavation
We handle both ends of the excavation spectrum. Bulk excavation to rapidly move hundreds of tonnes of earth for a new basement or underground car park, and detailed excavation to carve out precise footings, retaining wall trenches, and plumbing channels according to engineering plans.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you hit rock often?
Certain areas of Melbourne are notorious for heavy basalt rock just below the surface. Our excavators are equipped with heavy-duty rock breaker attachments to hammer through solid rock efficiently.
Do you take the dirt away?
Yes, we operate our own fleet of tipper trucks to provide immediate soil removal and haulage as the excavation takes place.
Can you excavate under an existing house?
We generally perform open-air excavation. However, we do undertake specific underpinning excavations for structural work. Contact us to discuss your specific engineering plans.
