Concrete solutions, from site prep to pour

Double Creek Excavations & Rural Contracting handles concrete form preparation and pouring for rural, residential, commercial and industrial jobs. Because we also do the excavation and site preparation, the groundwork and the concrete can be planned together.

Concrete work that starts with the ground

A good slab or pad comes down to what happens before the concrete arrives. The site needs to be cleared, levelled and set out properly, and the formwork needs to be right.

We help with concrete form preparation and pouring across Calliope, Gladstone, Rockhampton, Biloela, Agnes Water, Monto and surrounding areas.

We are not limited to rural work. We cater for residential, commercial and industrial concrete jobs as well as farms and acreages.

Concrete work we can help with

Site preparation

Clearing, excavation and levelling so the ground is ready before the formwork goes in.

Formwork

Setting out and building the formwork to the right levels and shape for the job.

Pouring

Placing the concrete into the prepared formwork once everything is set and checked.

Slabs and pads

Concrete for shed slabs, tank and machinery pads, and other practical bases around the property.

Driveways and paths

Concrete for driveway sections, aprons and paths where a harder-wearing surface makes sense.

Combined with excavation

Concrete work can be combined with our excavation and machinery hire, so the earthworks and the pour are planned together.

Get the prep right and the pour goes smoothly

Most concrete problems start underneath. Soft ground, poor drainage or formwork that is not level will show up later.

We look at the site, the access for the concrete truck and how the finished area will be used, then plan the preparation around that.

What to think about before booking concrete work

Access – Concrete trucks and machinery need a clear, safe way in and out of the site.

Ground conditions – Soft, wet or uneven ground may need extra excavation or fill before the formwork goes in.

Size and use – Tell us what the concrete is for and roughly how big it is, so the job can be planned to suit.

Drainage – Water needs somewhere to go. Falls and drainage are worth sorting out before the pour, not after.

Timing – Weather and site readiness affect pour days, so it helps to plan the job with a little flexibility.
