Highly recommend!! Phil and team were amazing at fixing and reinstalling a retaining wall that had begun to lean and fall. There was limited access to the area being in the hills, however that didn’t scare them away! Exceptional service, and they were very knowledgeable in helping us understand the ins and outs of the project. We are SO happy with the outcome; and the cost was reasonable and attainable for us, which was a huge bonus given the location and conditions. Thank you!

We had Phil undertake some pretty hard work to re-build some rotten, hard to access retaining walls. He did a fantastic job (all by hand). His communication is excellent, he’s arrives on time and completes his work to a very high standard (and at a very reasonable cost). We would absolutely recommend Phil to anyone looking for the types of services! You won’t regret it! Thanks again Phil

Phil helped us to transform our backyard from a pit, after a removal of an above ground pool, to a levelled backyard with retaining. He was easy to deal with and communicated well throughout the job. He was flexible, transparent and professional. We are very happy with the work completed and I would definitely recommend Groundwork Solutions for high quality Earth works.

Phil is an exceptional person, turns up when he says he will, does the job he’s asked to do and charges very reasonably. Couldn’t recommend Groundwork Solutions more highly!

Phil has been amazing to work with. We’ve had a major project, redoing our whole backyard. Over the last few months he has been central to this project, and his attitude, professionalism, communication, flexibility and quality of work has been so refreshingly wonderful. Big projects are stressful and he’s been a joy to have on board. 20m concrete retaining wall with 8m sides, leveling out our sloped block (with challenging access). 2m tall beser block wall, 15-20m or so, with two tiers, curved and with complex strong footings and solid drainage. Supporting during concrete pours for backyard workshop. I appreciate he doesn’t cut corners, ensures the important things are done right, but also guides on how to get the most out of his time, labour and the materials brought in. Suggested other trades (concrete slabs, stone masons) that have all been lovely to deal with and guides where he can add value across a variety of tasks or when it’s best to engage a specialist trade. Highly recommended!

We hired Phil for some extensive groundwork, and he exceeded all our expectations. He is incredibly skilled with the machinery and handled the earthmoving with precision and care. It’s rare to find someone who is both punctual and detail-oriented, but Phil nailed it. The site was left clean, and the levels were perfect. Highly recommend his services!"

We had Phil come out to do some groundwork and excavation on our property and we couldn’t be happier with the result. He was punctual, respectful, and kept us informed every step of the way. The job was done quickly, carefully, and with real attention to detail. Phil was so lovely to deal with—genuine, down-to-earth and incredibly professional. Highly recommend!
