Built for sand and limestone
We set the excavation, compaction and drainage approach around the material actually on site — including the limestone that turns a routine dig into a rock job.
Civil contractor · Perth, Western Australia
Coolderry Civil builds the ground layer for Perth subdivisions, industrial pads and local road upgrades — cut to level, drained, compacted and handed over clean.
Why builders call us
Perth sits on deep sand over a limestone shelf. It drains fast, it moves under load, and it punishes a method statement written for somewhere else.
We set the excavation, compaction and drainage approach around the material actually on site — including the limestone that turns a routine dig into a rock job.
Pads, inverts and finished surfaces are set out and checked against the design levels, so the concreters and pipe crews behind us are not correcting our tolerances.
Clearing, bulk earthworks, drainage, kerbing and pavement run under a single programme and one point of contact — which removes the handover gaps where civil jobs slip.

Read moreDelivery sequence
Civil work is one thing done in order. Each stage is signed off before the next covers it up.
We pick up the design levels, mark boundaries and batters, and confirm existing services before a machine turns a wheel.
Vegetation and unsuitable material come out, then cut and fill is balanced across the site to keep imported sand and cartage down.
Soakwells, pits and pipe runs are laid to grade, service trenches are opened for the utility crews, and everything is checked before backfill.
Subbase and basecourse are placed, trimmed and compacted to level, kerbing goes in, and the site is left clean and ready for seal.
