What is a Stepped Slab?
Sloping blocks come with unique challenges, from steep slopes to drainage concerns. As experienced sloping block builders in Wollongong, we understand how to overcome these obstacles while staying true to your vision.
Some builders use the traditional “cut and fill” method, which involves extensive excavation, leading to steeper driveways, additional retaining walls, and a higher final cost. Instead, we embrace techniques like stepped slabs and thoughtful design to work with the natural gradient of your block. This approach reduces unnecessary site costs while delivering homes that are functional, beautiful, and perfectly suited to the land.

In diagram A, we have introduced a step into the slab to allow the house to follow the natural gradient of the block. In diagram B, a standard “cut and fill” approach has been taken — many non-sloping site builders offer this approach because it’s the cheaper way to build.
