There are hundreds of excavation contractors all around Sydney.  Start your search by deciding on exactly what it is you need. Different contractors have different specialties and accordingly only have equipment to do some kinds of work. If you simply need a site cut for a building project or a pool filled you can probably choose one of the smaller contractors. Bigger jobs will require the services of excavators with specialized equipment, such as demolition. If you job involves the removal of asbestos, you will need to hire someone who is experienced in this.

Look for an excavating contractor with plenty of experience in the industry. Take notice of building sites in your local area, many excavators will leave a small sign on the fence with the company details. Don’t just pick someone you find, look for clean and professional looking sites. If there are tradespeople at work, have a look at how they work. You may even like to stop and ask them a few questions, if it is appropriate.

It’s said that only a bad tradesman builds his tools, but it is a good idea to find out that a excavation contractor has a good fleet of machinery. Not only will good machinery mean the job is done faster which costs you less time and money, but well cared for tools and vehicles mean that they take pride in their work.

Before you employ any contractor you should check out their qualifications. Make sure that they have the specific qualifications required to complete the job. If you can’t find this information online, just ask them. Equally important are insurances. Make sure you are covered by professional indemnity insurance should anything go wrong while work is being carried out.

It’s a good idea to get quotes from two or three different excavation contractors before you give the job to someone. Make sure the quote contains a detailed list of the work which will be carried out, as well as whether or not they will be removing the excess dirt and rubbish. This on its own can be quite expensive. Also important is the estimated start date for the work and how long it will take. You will need to know this as you may have other contractors who need start dates after the excavation process is finished.
