Services

Water and Irrigation Lines.

Trenching for water supply from tanks, bores or the main, plus irrigation lines around lifestyle properties and larger sections.

Power and Fibre.

Trenches for underground power, outdoor lighting and fibre cables, dug to the depth your electrician or network provider needs.

Stormwater and Sewer.

Drainage trenching for stormwater, sewer and soakage lines, with the fall worked out so the water actually runs where it's meant to.

Commercial Trenching.

Longer service runs across commercial sites, yards and subdivisions. We work around your programme so other trades aren't left waiting on us.

Process

How We Handle It

Trenching looks simple until you hit an old water pipe nobody knew about. Before we dig, we go over your plans, check for existing services, and talk to your plumber or electrician about depth, width and bedding. On Northland clay, a trench left open through a wet spell can turn into a pond, so we keep the digging, laying and backfilling as tight as we can.

You’ll have a clear idea of timing before we start. If rain pushes the job back, we let you know early, and anything extra gets priced before it’s done.

Why Choose Us for Your Trenching

Trenching is usually the job everyone else is waiting on. The plumber can’t lay pipe and the electrician can’t pull cable until the trench is in. We turn up, dig it properly and get out of the way.

CB Earthmoving is a family-owned business that’s been working on Northland sites since 2017. Whether it’s one short run to a shed or a long line across a commercial site, you deal directly with the owners.
