A&G Earthmoving Group is a locally owned, family-operated earthmoving business based in Gympie, Queensland. Founded and operated by Glen, who has dedicated his entire career to the civil and earthmoving industries, the business specialises in all aspects of earthworks for rural, residential, and commercial clients across South East Queensland.
Glen is the owner and operator of A&G Earthmoving Group and has over 20 years of experience in the civil and earthmoving industries. He is known for his precision machine operation, strong work ethic, and genuine care for the finished product. Glen and his wife Alena also have a background in the equine industry, which informs the specialist horse arena and round yard work the business offers.
We're based in Gympie, QLD and regularly service the full South East Queensland corridor from Brisbane to Bundaberg. This includes the Sunshine Coast, Gympie, and surrounding rural and regional areas. Outside this area? We're happy to travel — just get in touch to discuss your project and location.
Yes. We are available Monday to Friday 6:00am to 7:00pm, and weekends are available on request. Give us a call on 0416 595 106 to discuss scheduling.
Contact us by phone on 0416 595 106 or email info@agearthmovinggroup.com.au. You can also submit an enquiry through our website. We'll discuss your project requirements and provide an obligation-free quote.
Yes. A&G Earthmoving Group operates as a registered company (PTY LTD) with appropriate insurance in place. Please contact us if you require specific documentation for your project.
We handle a wide range of earthworks including house and shed pads, site preparations, dam construction, drainage works, vegetation clearing, slashing, concrete prep, rural and commercial earthworks, and more. If you have an earthworks need not listed here, contact us — chances are we can help.
A house or shed pad is a level, compacted base that your building sits on. Getting the pad right is critical — an incorrectly prepared pad can cause structural issues, drainage problems, and costly repairs down the track. We use laser-guided machine control to ensure your pad is level, properly compacted, and built to specification.
Site preparation (site prep) is the process of getting land ready for construction. This can include clearing vegetation, removing topsoil, levelling the ground, establishing access, and shaping the site to suit drainage requirements. A well-prepared site saves time and money throughout the build process.
Yes. Proper drainage is one of the most important — and often overlooked — aspects of rural and residential earthworks. We assess and address drainage as part of most projects, whether that's shaping land for runoff, installing drainage lines, or rectifying existing drainage problems.
Yes. We prepare bases ready for concrete pours, ensuring the ground is correctly levelled, compacted, and graded to the required specification before your concretor arrives.
We construct and repair rural driveways and recycled asphalt driveways. Whether you need a new driveway built from scratch, an existing driveway repaired after wet weather damage, or a rough track brought up to a trafficable standard, we can help.
Recycled asphalt (also called rap or reclaimed asphalt pavement) is a cost-effective and durable driveway surface made from crushed, recycled asphalt material. It compacts well, handles rural traffic effectively, and is a popular choice for long rural driveways and property access roads. It's generally more affordable than fresh asphalt and performs well in Queensland conditions.
Yes. Fixing damaged rural driveways is one of our core services. We can reshape the road base, address drainage issues that caused the damage, resheet with suitable material, and compact to a solid, trafficable finish.
Yes. Dam construction is one of our specialist services. A well-built dam is a significant asset on a rural property — providing water storage for livestock, irrigation, and fire protection. We assess your site, design the dam to suit your catchment and water storage requirements, and construct it to last.
Dam construction in Queensland may require approval depending on the size of the dam, its location, and how it impacts on waterways. We recommend checking requirements with your local council and the Queensland Department of Resources before proceeding. We can advise on the practical earthworks aspects of the project and work alongside any approval process.
This depends entirely on the size and complexity of the dam and site conditions. A smaller rural dam on a straightforward site may take a few days. Larger or more complex projects can take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeframe when we assess your site.
Yes — horse arena construction is one of our specialist services and a genuine passion. Glen and Alena are horse riders themselves, which means they understand what makes an arena work and what to avoid. We build custom all-weather arenas and round yards tailored to the rider, the horses, the property, and the budget.
A good arena starts with the right base — proper drainage, correct depth, and a well-compacted foundation. The footing material then needs to suit the discipline, the horses, and the climate. Every property is different, which is why we take a custom approach to every arena rather than applying a one-size-fits-all solution.
Yes. We build both outdoor arenas and prepare bases for indoor arenas. Our 2D laser-guided machine control allows us to achieve precise levels across large arena surfaces, which is critical for consistent drainage and safe footing.
A round yard is a circular enclosure used for breaking in, lunging, and working horses at close range. Yes, we build round yards as part of our equine services. Like arenas, the base preparation is critical to getting a round yard right.
Yes. We're happy to discuss your requirements, intended disciplines, available space, and budget and advise on a suitable size and layout for your property. Because we're horse people ourselves, we can have that conversation with practical knowledge rather than just guesswork.
Yes. We carry out vegetation clearing for rural properties, development sites, and land preparation. This includes scrub clearing, tree removal, and clearing for new builds, driveways, arenas, and other works.
Slashing is the mechanical cutting of grass, weeds, and light vegetation using a slasher attachment. It's commonly used for fire hazard reduction, property maintenance, airstrip clearing, and keeping rural land in a manageable condition. We have a slasher attachment and can incorporate slashing into broader earthworks projects or carry it out as a standalone job.
We operate excavators and earthmoving machinery suited to rural, residential, and commercial projects. Our attachments include a slasher, auger, spreader bar, and 2D laser-guided machine control — allowing us to carry out precision grading and levelling work to a high standard.
Laser-guided machine control uses laser technology to guide the blade or bucket of the machine to precise levels automatically. This means we can achieve accurate grades and levels across large areas — essential for house pads, arenas, and drainage works where precision matters. It reduces re-work and delivers a better finished result.
Yes. We offer tipper hire for material cartage and combo hire (machine and tipper together) for projects requiring both earthmoving and material transport. Contact us to discuss availability and rates for your project.
Yes. In addition to rural and residential earthworks, we take on civil and commercial earthworks projects. Contact us to discuss the scope and scale of your project and we'll advise on suitability and availability.
Yes. We regularly work on large rural and agricultural properties throughout South East Queensland. Glen is experienced working independently on large properties over multiple days and weeks, and clients regularly comment on his ability to work unsupervised and deliver results beyond expectations.
Possibly yes. While we're based in Gympie and regularly service Brisbane to Bundaberg, we're happy to travel for the right project. Give us a call on 0416 595 106 to discuss your location and requirements.
