Mackay’s best team of expert earthmovers
As Mackay locals, we work with mining companies, civil construction, local governments and owners of rural residential properties across the entire Bowen Basin and Central Queensland.
Husband and wife team, Wendy and Riley Dodd have been working together in their family business since 2007. Starting with one bobcat, the team has grown to include a dedicated crew of expert operators.
We know our people are our biggest asset. That’s why we employ quality crew and invest in training to keep our team up-to-date with their skills and knowledge. Most of our team are long-term employees who’ve been with us for years.
Our crew like working for us and our clients like working with our crew.
Our operators have all the necessary mining and rail accreditations, inductions and work tickets. And many of them hold a Certificate 3 in Civil Construction.
We’re focused on finding solutions and fixing problems, not causing them. With All Surface Civil, you’ll never get an operator who doesn’t know what they’re doing.
We’re skilled, motivated and ready to work hard for you.

A hands-on approach
Riley was very hands-on in his approach and managed the job himself. Usually, the owner of the business isn’t there day-to-day, so it was a big advantage to know Riley was there and directly involved in making sure the project was delivered correctly.
