Picton Civil

What Picton Civil does

Picton Civil Pty Ltd is a family-owned and operated civil construction company headquartered at 11 Yookson Road, Picton, Western Australia, founded in 1968. The company delivers earthmoving, civil and mining construction services across four core product lines: Civil Capabilities (bulk and detailed earthworks for domestic, commercial, and mining projects), Wet & Dry Plant Hire (equipment rental with qualified operators including excavators, dozers, loaders, graders, watercarts, trucks, and transporters), Demolition Services (Class 2 demolition and Restricted Asbestos removal under licence WR2182), and Heavy & Bulk Haulage (civil and mining plant relocation, oversized loads, and bulk material transport using a fleet that includes 50T floats, drop decks, tilt trays, road trains, and live bottom trailers). Operations are supported by an in-house fully equipped workshop and a modern, well-maintained fleet.

The customer base is concentrated in Western Australia's Southwest region and spans government infrastructure (Main Roads WA, Water Corporation, Department of Biodiversity, Conservation & Attractions), mining (Iluka, Tronox), and tier-one contractors (SRG Global, Fulton Hogan, Guidera O'Connor), with select commercial and education engagements. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, no parent entity, and no subsidiaries; management is anchored by the Cross family, with multiple members in operational and finance roles. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, and revenue is not reported. The firm holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001, and ISO 14001 certifications, along with the Class 2 Demolition Licence and Restricted Asbestos Licence that gate access to regulated demolition work.

Commercial reach is regional rather than national, with the company explicitly serving Southwest WA and beyond on a project basis. Go-to-market is direct enterprise engagement via phone, email, and a contact form, supplemented by a downloadable capability statement for tenders and by community sponsorships that support local brand and labour pipeline. Headcount is reported in the 51-100 range. There is no evidence of AI/ML, software product, or platform technology; the business is fundamentally an industrial services operation monetised through project works, equipment hire, demolition, and haulage.
