Had real trouble finding someone who could excavate and lay gravel for my driveway, but I found Joel on Google, and I'm so glad I did. He was professional, communicative, showed up on time and as promised, worked consistently, only charged for time spent, and even worked through inclement weather. Highly recommend.
Joel is exceptionally particular in his work and the finished product. Always a joy to work with. Good communication Highly recommend for any small or large job.
Joel was a pleasure to deal with, professional, on time, experienced and had useful advices and ideas - I would recommend Joel to anyone, good outcome and reasonably priced Peter 22 December 2023
Joel did a great job clearing quite a large area of scrub and cutting grass/sags under and around gum trees, roughly eight hours work (just part of it in the attached photo). He was great to work with, very easy going, punctual, efficient and tidy. He listened to what I wanted done and got it just right. Couldn't be happier with the job and very reasonable pricing.
Joel is a very skilled excavator operator and extremely well priced for his quality work.He’s very easy to deal with and did an amazing job with a difficult sloped block at our home in Sandy Bay. Highly recommend Joel for any job you have in mind. Hiedi and Rod
Very happy with the work Joel did excavating and shaping front yard in preparation for a retaining wall and terracing steep sloping back yard. I found Joel to be punctual, calm, professional, trustworthy and feel confident recommending him to anyone wanting high quality, affordable excavation and related earth works done.
Would 100% recommend earthwise excavations, Joel is always super tidy and precise with his work. We have used him a number of times and every time he has listened to exactly what we want and then gone beyond what we could hope for, he’s always got great ideas and helps if your abit unsure with what you want. He’s reliable, flexible and very skilled.
