Earthworks

Probuild Civil (QLD) Pty Ltd has traditionally made its core business the construction of roads and bridges that have needed a high degree of technical skill with stringent quality requirements, which have thus suited the mix of the Company’s employees.

In recent years, through associations with reliable plant hire companies, owner operators and bulk earthworks subcontractors, the Company has won and successfully completed a number of projects of varying sizes, that have had high quality requirements but more especially high production outputs necessary.

Our major clients on these projects include:

• Port of Brisbane
• The Department of Main Roads
• Queensland Rail
