Services include:
  • Pile driving & drilling - Foundation piling and drilling for residential, commercial and civil projects, including micropiling and compact equipment for difficult-access sites.
  • Earthworks & demolition - Excavation, earthmoving, demolition and land preparation for everything from residential sections to commercial developments.
  • Civil construction & siteworks - Civil works for councils, developers, principal contractors and commercial clients, including subdivisions, road and footpath repairs and commercial developments.
  • Retaining walls - Timber, block, gabion and other retaining walls, from straightforward residential projects through to large engineered retaining structures.

Looking for digger hire or excavator hire?

You might think all you need is digger hire or excavator hire, but getting the job done properly often takes experience and a bit of problem-solving too.
Rocka Excavation provides the digger or excavator along with an experienced operator who can assess the job, work out the best approach, tackle any problem-solving needed, and get the job done efficiently and well.

Bring us the tricky stuff

Talk to us when a project doesn't have an obvious solution. Difficult access, steep land, challenging ground conditions, unusual requirements or several different stages that need to come together – this is where our team's experience really makes the difference.
We have a wide range of our own machinery, including compact piling and drilling equipment for restricted sites. If the job needs specialist machinery or expertise outside our own team, we have established relationships with engineers and other contractors and can help bring the right people together.
We're happy to come to your site, listen to your ideas and look at different ways of approaching the work. Sometimes there will be several options, and we'll talk through the practicalities and costs so you can decide what works best for your project.
