Earthworks

At SPS Civil we offer a full range of civil excavation, earthworks and earthmoving services for commercial and residential projects. Our expert team of highly experienced and certified operators are ready to tackle any project.

With our fleet of machines, we are able to offer you experienced precision earth moving. Our expertise and location allow us to offer flexibility to work within any constraints and deadlines.

We understand the most important aspect of plant hire is getting the most out of the equipment that you hire and to do this you need three things:

  • Reliable equipment
  • Quality Operators
  • Exceptional service

At SPS Civil we aim to offer every piece of equipment with experienced, service orientated operators. All our crew members are highly qualified and familiar with the required safety regulations. Our equipment is kept up to the highest standard.

At SPS Civil we provide a wide range of trenching solutions to cater to your project needs from pipeline installations to all electrical works including solar, wind and BESS farms. We can work with you and your project to dig trenches for you to lay fibre optics, water and gas mains, power and communications trenches.

Access roads are used to provide temporary access into and through construction sites, as well as permanent, low-traffic access for ongoing maintenance. At SPS Civil we are specialised in accessing the hard-to-reach areas of South Australia. We can help you build an access road that minimises vegetation disturbance, while considering the intended purpose of the land. We specialised in building access roads while working for both Oz Minerals during early construction of the Carapateena Mine as well for UGL capping sand hills for the new Port Augusta to Olympic Dam powerline.

At SPS Civil we have a skilled team that holds tickets to handle heavy equipment. The team is not only experienced in the site preparation and installation of hard stands, but we also dispose of the waste materials effectively. Site preparation can be as simple as leveling and compacting the soil using graders, loaders, water carts and rollers or as extensive as soil removal using graders, backhoes, excavators and scrappers. Our experienced crew is always happy to talk with you and come up with the best way to achieve your project goals.

Where you are in need of any excavation works, we have you covered. SPS Civil has their own excavators and operators. We encourage our crew to specialise in this field as we can see the importance of good excavator operators as it is a foundational element in various projects. Excavation is the ideal medium for roadwork subdrains, irrigation channels, drill sumps, water drainage and concrete footings. At SPS Civil we know that understanding the excavation process is essential for ensuring that construction or development projects run smoothly and efficiently.

At SPS Civil we have a passion for the outback of South Australia. We live at the edge of the desert and love providing services in the hard-to-reach places. We are dedicated to restoring natural landscapes. SPS Civil provides quality environmental rehabilitation services such as erosion control, revegetation, and pollution remediation. Our sustainable practices ensure the protection and enhancement of ecosystems.

We provide mowing, slashing and weed management services for domestic, rural and commercial blocks. Regular slashing of overgrown paddocks, fields and solar farms is essential for assisting in weed control, deterring rodents and snakes and reducing fire hazards by maintaining grass and vegetation.

  • Road Train + Semi + Rigid water trucks
    SPS Civil can deliver up to 60,000L of water at a time to the Upper Spencer Gulf and surrounding areas.
  • Dust Suppression
    We have 13,000L – 60,000L water carts with batter sprays to offer solutions for your dust while delivering a project. During the draught the Australian dust can be relentless. It can hinder your visibility and efficiency of your project. We offer dust suppressing solutions for your new and existing projects.
