Professional Cutting and Backfilling Contractor in UAE
Are you looking for a reliable cutting and backfilling contractor in UAE? Successful construction starts from the ground up. Whether you are developing a residential plot in Madinat Zayed or a massive industrial site in Mussafah, the integrity of your foundation depends on precise soil cutting and high-standard compaction.
At Salem Al Maskari General Transporting (SAMGT), we bring over 30 years of experience to every project. Since 1993, we have been the cornerstone of earthworks and site preparation in Abu Dhabi, ensuring that your land is perfectly leveled, stabilized, and ready for the next phase of construction.
Why Site Preparation Matters in the UAE
The unique desert terrain of the United Arab Emirates presents specific engineering challenges. From shifting sands to rocky sub-surfaces, “soil cutting” and “backfilling” are not just about moving dirt, they are about structural safety.
Adhering to UAE site preparation rules is mandatory to prevent future structural settling or drainage issues. Our team ensures that every layer of earthwork meets municipal standards and ADNOC-approved safety protocols where required.
Our Comprehensive Cutting and Backfilling Services

We utilize a modern fleet of heavy-duty excavators and earthmovers to remove excess soil and rock. Our precision cutting ensures that your site reaches the exact desired grade level according to your architectural blueprints.
- Mass Excavation:
Large-scale soil removal for industrial sites.
- Trenching:
