Piers & post holes

Pier installation on the Bellarine Peninsula

Pier installation on the Bellarine Peninsula involves excavating and preparing holes for piers used in suitable outdoor construction and landscaping projects. CMS Landscaping provides concrete pier installation, foundation pier installation, post hole digging and post hole excavation within its excavation and landscape construction services. Based in Ocean Grove, we work across the Bellarine Peninsula, with projects also extending into Geelong, the Surf Coast and Southwest District.

Concrete and foundation pier installation for outdoor construction

Concrete pier installation can be required where piers form part of the supporting structure for an outdoor project. The location, dimensions and depth of the piers need to reflect the requirements of the proposed construction and site.

Foundation pier installation requires accurate excavation according to the specifications for the proposed structure. Ground conditions, access and the required location and depth of each pier can affect how the work is completed.

Post hole digging and excavation on the Bellarine Peninsula

Post hole digging may be required for a range of outdoor construction and landscaping applications. The appropriate hole dimensions depend on what is being installed and the requirements of the project.

Post hole excavation can vary depending on soil conditions, rock, existing structures and access to the work area. These factors can influence the equipment and excavation approach suitable for the property.

FAQs
What information do you need before excavating pier holes?

The required locations, dimensions and depths should be established before excavation. Where the piers form part of an engineered structure, the relevant plans or specifications should also be available.

Can you excavate multiple post holes as part of a landscaping project?

Yes. Post hole digging can be incorporated into a broader excavation or landscaping project where posts or piers are required as part of the planned works.

Can you work from engineering specifications for piers?

Where engineering specifications apply to the project, pier installation and excavation requirements can be completed according to the relevant documentation.

What can affect post hole excavation?

Ground conditions, rock, existing structures, required hole dimensions and access can all affect post hole excavation. The site and project requirements should be assessed before work begins.

Can you excavate pier and post holes where access is restricted?

Depending on the available access and site conditions, excavation may be possible in areas where larger machinery cannot readily operate. The site needs to be assessed to determine a suitable approach.
