FOUNDATIONS

Foundation Earthworks

Foundation earthworks done right from day one. TBT Earthworks prepares sites for Ribraft, TC1, TC2, and TC3 foundation systems across Lincoln and Canterbury.

We work alongside your engineer and builder to get the levels, dimensions, and ground preparation exactly right - because a foundation built on poor earthworks isn't a foundation, it's a liability.

  • Ribraft foundation preparation
  • TC1, TC2, TC3 land categories
  • Foundation excavation and backfill
  • Engineered foundation systems
