What We Offer
Comprehensive ground investigations, NATA-accredited soil and rock testing, and technical reporting—all under one roof for seamless, reliable results.

Site Investigations
Know what the ground is before design starts. Boreholes, sampling and logging, so your engineer designs from evidence rather than assumptions.

Site Classification
The AS 2870 class your building surveyor needs and your engineer designs footings from, with the soil tested in our own laboratory.
Learn more →
Geotechnical Drilling
Rigs, crews and licences for hire, drill only or with the whole investigation. Tight access and low headroom are routine.
Learn more →
Environmental Drilling
Rigs and licensed drillers for environmental consultants: sampling to your plan and monitoring bores.
Learn more →
Soil & Rock Testing
Our own NATA-accredited laboratory in Boronia, so your samples never queue behind another firm's work and results come back interpreted.
Learn more →
Earthwork Inspections
Level 1 supervision or Level 2 testing to AS 3798, so fill is checked while it is still open rather than dug up again.
Learn more →
Land Capability Assessment
The report your council needs before it issues a permit for a septic or treatment system on unsewered land, written to be acted on.
Learn more →
Road Pavement Design
Subgrade investigation, material testing and pavement composition, so the pavement is designed for the ground it sits on rather than an assumption.
Learn more →
Engineering Assessment
A geotechnical report your structural engineer can design from: bearing pressures, settlement, retention and groundwater as numbers, not descriptions.
