    If they're building near you chances are they have the cut topsoil stacked up because they're going to spread it around the finished houses, so he may be using it.

    I'm nearly finished building a house myself, and I asked the builders to leave the topsoil from the initial site cut. Himself nearly died when he saw the size of the heap, but once they'd finished dipping into it again to fill and spreading it around the site, there's only about probably five tonnes left.
