Northfield's renovation market keeps our equipment moving — medium clay soil throughout, and the 1.7T excavator with auger attachment is the go-to combo for post holes, landscaping and the concrete saw for driveway upgrades.
A rotary hoe turns hard, compacted Adelaide clay into workable garden soil — far faster and deeper than manual digging. The Husqvarna TR348 is our workhorse for garden prep.

Rotary Hoe Hire in Northfield — Soil & Garden
Soil & Ground Conditions
Established suburban soils — generally stable clay loam with good bearing capacity. Older suburbs (Prospect, Nailsworth, Collinswood) have well-consolidated soils from decades of settlement. Some areas around Blair Athol and Enfield have sandy fill from former quarry operations. Soil is generally easy to excavate but watch for buried building rubble in older areas.
Garden Equipment Notes
The medium clay in Northfield determines the best approach. Water clay soil the day before using a rotary hoe for easier tilling. Aerate lawns in spring and autumn when soil is moist but not waterlogged.
