Our team specialises in rural and agricultural earthworks across the Mid North Coast, delivering reliable excavation for farms, properties, and rural developments. Whether you need dam construction, farm trenching, rural road formation, drainage channels, or block clearing, we combine decades of hands-on experience with local soil and zoning knowledge to complete every job safely and efficiently. We understand the unique challenges of rural properties from clay-heavy terrain to flood-prone areas and tailor our work to suit your land’s conditions and long-term use.

Using smaller, tight-access excavators, we can navigate even the most confined areas to complete foundation cuts, trenching, and soil removal without damaging surrounding structures or landscaping.
Whether you’re preparing a new build, installing turf or lawn, or rejuvenating your garden and driveway, we provide end-to-end support including backfilling, compaction, and material delivery from our own landscape yard. Every job is supervised by our experienced operator to ensure your site is left clean, stable, and construction-ready. Homeowners across Coffs Harbour, Bellingen, and Nambucca Heads trust Foster’s Earthworks & Contracting for our transparent quotes, honest communication, and high-quality finishes.

We work closely with local councils, builders, and developers to deliver results that meet engineering specifications and environmental requirements.
Our experience extends to subdivision earthworks, factory and warehouse pads, and infrastructure trenching across the Mid North Coast. Each site is planned and executed to avoid costly delays, with productivity and precision as top priorities. With over 38 years of operational excellence, we understand the level of accuracy and documentation commercial projects require and we deliver it every time.

For most landscape material deliveries, we can arrange same-day or next-day service (depending on stock and distance).
