Civil contracting and earthwork specialists
Tauranga and wider Bay of Plenty region

Civil contracting services that keep every stage organised

Civil projects often involve far more than excavation. Drainage, retaining, concrete, access and other site works need to happen in the right sequence. Delays can quickly arise when each stage is handled by a different contractor.

Project Specialists can coordinate more of the work under one programme, so the project keeps moving from the initial site works through to the later civil stages.

Before we quote, we visit the site to understand access, ground conditions, services and the overall scope. That gives us a clearer plan from the outset and helps identify anything that could affect the price or programme.

Civil works coordinated from the ground up


Civil contracting brings together the work that follows and connects with the initial earthmoving.

That can include drainage, retaining, concrete driveways, shed floors, access roads, site infrastructure and other works required to get a project ready for its next stage or through to completion.

Where possible, Project Specialists coordinates these elements under one programme rather than leaving the client to source and schedule several different contractors.

Plant, materials and any specialist subcontractors are planned before work begins, helping reduce unnecessary gaps once the site is underway.

For excavation, building platforms and bulk ground preparation, see our
earthworks services.

Accurate civil pricing starts on site

We prefer not to price civil work from photographs or plans alone.

A site visit lets us assess access, existing surfaces, services, spoil removal and visible ground conditions, as well as talk through how the different stages are likely to be completed.

Where there are genuine unknowns, they are identified in the quote where possible. If something changes once work is underway, variations are discussed and agreed as they arise rather than being left until the final invoice.

Project Specialists' price may not always be the lowest, but it often reflects a more complete scope, including the planning, coordination and project management needed to keep the whole job moving.

Subdivisions, commercial works and fuel-sector projects


Civil contracting experience ranges from residential and commercial site works through to subdivision groundwork, access and roading works, insurance repairs and fuel-sector projects.

Project Specialists has more than 20 years of experience working around service stations and truck stops, where earthworks, drainage, concrete and associated infrastructure may all need to be coordinated as part of the same project.

That background has also shaped the way sites are managed. Health and safety requirements are taken seriously, work areas are kept controlled and tidy, and the team holds ISNetworld prequalification.

For private civil work, the focus is Tauranga, Katikati and the wider Bay of Plenty. Fuel-sector projects may be undertaken across the North Island.

From approved plans to compliant site works

Many civil projects involve council requirements, engineered designs or geotechnical input before construction starts.

Project Specialists work from the approved plans and specifications provided for the job, coordinating the physical works to meet those requirements. Depending on the project, this can include drainage, erosion and sediment controls, traffic management and other site-specific conditions.

Where retaining is part of the project, construction follows the approved engineering design. You can read more about this on our
retaining walls page.

Civil contracting can include drainage, retaining, concrete, access roads, shed floors, subdivision groundwork and other site works that need to be coordinated beyond the initial excavation.

Yes. Where appropriate, Project Specialists can coordinate multiple stages under one programme, including earthworks, drainage, retaining and concrete, so you are not left organising several separate contractors.

Every job starts with a site visit so access, ground conditions, services and the overall scope can be assessed properly. Any genuine unknowns or variations are discussed as they arise rather than being left until the end.

Yes. Project Specialists works across residential, commercial, subdivision and fuel-sector projects, including roading, drainage, site infrastructure and larger civil works.
