What We Do

We don't just push dirt around. We build driveways, site cuts and walls that hold their shape for years.

A driveway is the first thing you see coming home and the last thing you drive over leaving. Done properly, it holds its fall, sheds the water and stays firm through a wet Macedon Ranges winter. We grade it right, build the base to carry the load, and finish it so it drives clean in every season, not just the day we leave.

The result you quietly want

A level pad ready for the slab. A rock wall that looks like it grew out of the bank. A driveway that never needs a second thought. That is the finish most people are really after, a property that just works and stops costing them weekends of patching, scraping and worrying every time it rains.

Work that belongs to the land

The best earthmoving is the kind nobody notices, because it looks like it was always there. We read the fall of your ground, work with the slope instead of fighting it, and set walls and cuts that sit true. In a year the grass takes hold and it looks like the land was shaped that way from the start.

How We Work

We Work With Your Land, Not Against It

Plenty of operators dig their part and drive off, leaving you the mess where their job meets yours. We think about the whole job so every piece fits the property.

STEP 01

Read The Land

We walk your property, check the fall and the soil, and work out where the water runs. We plan the whole job before a machine moves so nothing gets fixed twice.

STEP 02

Build It Right

The right base under the driveway, the right rock in the wall, the pad cut dead level. We use the machines and materials the job actually needs, done once.

STEP 03

Looks Like It Belongs

We leave the ground tidy, the levels true and the finish clean. In a season it settles in and looks like it was always meant to be there.

Common Questions

The Questions People Ask Before They Book

My last driveway washed out within a year. How is yours different?

That happens when the fall is wrong and the base is thin. We build the drainage into the design and set the base to carry the load, so the water runs off instead of cutting ruts. You get a driveway that holds through winter, not one you patch every spring.

Can you do the driveway, site cut and retaining wall as one job?

Yes, that is exactly the work we like most. We offer the driveway and site cut as a package, or driveway, site cut and walls all together. Doing it as one job means the levels tie in properly and you deal with one bloke, not three.

Will you leave my property a mess?

No. Leaving the land better than we found it is the whole point for us. We clean up as we go, set the levels true and finish the ground tidy. When we drive off it should look settled, not like a war zone with a machine parked in it.

What areas do you cover?

We work across the Macedon Ranges and Mitchell Shire, based out of Broadford and covering roughly 30km around, into Melbourne's north. If you're a home owner, farmer, hobby farmer or rural property owner in that patch, we can help.

Jason Hobbs
About Us

Hey, I'm Jason Hobbs Owner Of JJH Excavations

I've been running machines around the Macedon Ranges and Mitchell Shire for 6 years. Driveways new and repaired, house and shed site cuts, rock and concrete retaining walls. Home owners, farmers, hobby farmers and rural property owners are who I build for.

What I care about is the whole job, not just my part of it. I take the time to understand what you actually want, then build it so it works with your land and lasts. Built once, done right, and the ground left better than I found it.

I run a 5t and a 14t excavator, a posi track and a tandem tipper, so I've got the gear to do the job start to finish. Get a quote and I'll come have a proper look.
