OUR CAPABILITIES

Not just a hole in the ground. A water asset that actually works.

A good dam is one of the most valuable things on a rural property. CE Contracting builds new dams and cleans out existing ones using Volvo L150H loaders, moving and compacting the right material to give you deep, clean storage that holds through Queensland's long dry spells. We have a look at the job first and tell you straight what it involves.

Deep water that holds through a long dry season

Restored depth means less surface exposed to evaporation and water that stays reliable well into winter when you need it most.

Clean, firm edges so livestock do not get bogged

Safe, well-shaped entry points where cattle can drink confidently without sinking into dangerous silt at the water's edge.

Maximum storage from every season's rainfall

Fully cleaned-out or newly built storage that captures and holds as much water as the catchment delivers rather than letting it overflow and waste.

Water that stays cleaner for longer into summer

Deeper, cleaner water takes longer to heat up and is less likely to go green and stagnant before the next rain arrives.

Dam walls built to hold through a heavy wet season

Properly moved and compacted earth built into a wall that does not soften and fail when the big summer rains hit your catchment.

Spillways that route overflow away from the main wall

Wide, clean overflow channels cut to protect your wall from being breached and washed out during a big runoff event.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Dam work FAQ

Here are the questions people ask most before they call about a dam build or cleanout.

How do I know if my dam needs a cleanout or just a repair?

If your dam is drying up earlier each season, has boggy edges where cattle are getting stuck, or the water goes green quickly, siltation is usually the problem. If the wall has a visible soft spot or leak, that is a repair job. Either way, call Neville on 0428 130 822 and we will come out and have a look before we tell you what it needs.

Can you build a new dam from scratch on a rural property in Queensland?

Yes. CE Contracting builds new dams using Volvo L150H loaders to excavate the storage bowl, move and compact the clay for the wall, and cut the spillway. We come out to look at the site first, check the material, and give you a straight quote on what is involved. Call Neville on 0428 130 822.
