Removal and replacement of curb

$500

Seacliff Park SA 5049, Australia

10th Aug 2025

There is an old driveway in the curb out the front of my house that needs removing and replacing. 3800mm in length I’ve been let down by a few contractors and keen to get this done ASAP. It needs council approval once a contractor has been secured and they require proof of $20mil public liability insurance. I had 1 contractor suggest a cheaper option would be to cut out excess concrete on house side and fill the excess. I’m open to whatever is cheapest that will hold soil and turf.

Remove 1 Inch of Topsoil From Garden Path – 6m x 0.7m

$150

Fulham Gardens, South Australia

19th Jul 2025

I need someone to scrape and remove about 1 inch (approx 2.5cm) of topsoil from a garden pathway so I can lay some weed mat and fresh stones. The path is roughly 6 metres long and 0.7 metres wide. The job involves: • Scraping off the top layer of dirt evenly along the path • Removing and disposing of all soil and debris Important: • No paving or relaying is required – I’ll take care of that later. • Access is straightforward. • Must bring your own tools (shovel, wheelbarrow, etc.) and be able to remove the soil offsite. Please include your availability and confirm if you can take the soil away. Thanks!

Efficient and good execution.
