32 services available
Geotechnical Engineering
A geotechnical site investigation using machine drilling, with 3 boreholes and 3 dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) tests, followed by a written geotechnical report. Suits projects and sites that need more than a hand auger investigation, beyond 1.5 m in depth, such as projects with a basement.
Geotechnical Engineering
An engineer digs a test hole directly next to the existing footing at your site to confirm what the footing is made of, its dimensions and the soil at its base, so the soil bearing capacity at the base of the existing footing can be determined. Useful before alterations, additions or underpinning, when the structural design depends on the existing footings.
Geotechnical Engineering
A geotechnical site investigation using a hand auger, with 2 boreholes up to 1.5 m deep and 2 dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) tests, followed by a written report classifying your site as per AS 2870.

Structural Engineering
Structural design and certification for a commercial timber or steel mezzanine floor up to 100 sqm from a registered structural engineer, with drawings ready for approval and construction.
Structural Engineering
Certification from a registered structural engineer confirming that installed structural works are adequate and comply with the design. The site inspection is booked separately.
Structural Engineering
A one-hour online video consultation with a registered structural engineer to talk through your project or issue, answer your questions and advise on the next steps.
Structural Engineering
An independent review of another engineer's structural design by a registered structural engineer, checking it for compliance and adequacy and giving you a clear written outcome.
Civil / Hydraulic
Civil design of your driveway layout, including long sections and swept path analysis to show vehicles can enter and exit safely, with certification from a registered engineer. Covers one entry/exit path.
Civil / Hydraulic
Stormwater drawings for a double-storey house site from a registered engineer, showing how roof and surface water is collected and discharged to meet council requirements.
Civil / Hydraulic
Stormwater drawings for a single-storey house site from a registered engineer, showing how roof and surface water is collected and discharged to meet council requirements.
Civil / Hydraulic
Stormwater design for a single-storey granny flat from a registered engineer, showing how roof and surface water is collected and discharged to meet council requirements. A fixed price, so you can sort your stormwater alongside your structural design.
Structural Engineering
A registered structural engineer re-inspects the council footpaths, kerbs, gutters, roads and other public assets around your site after construction finishes, and compares them against the pre-construction report. The report meets council requirements and clearly shows whether any damage happened during construction, helping protect your damage deposit.
Structural Engineering
A registered structural engineer re-inspects a neighbouring property after your construction work finishes and compares it against the pre-construction dilapidation report. The report clearly shows whether anything changed during construction, satisfies council's requirements and gives you and the neighbour a fair, documented outcome.
Structural Engineering, Civil/Hydraulic Engineering
Structural design for a single-storey granny flat up to 60 sqm, from a registered structural engineer. A fixed price for one of the most common secondary dwellings, so you can get your structural engineering sorted without waiting on a quote.
Structural Engineering
A registered structural engineer inspects and records the condition of the council footpaths, kerbs, gutters, roads and other public assets around your site. The report meets council requirements for your project and gives council a clear record, so you aren't charged for damage that was already there before construction started. Pre- and post-works records let council and you compare the two and clearly see what changed during construction.
Structural Engineering
A registered structural engineer inspects and records the condition of a neighbouring property before your construction work starts. The report satisfies council's requirements for a dilapidation inspection and report, protects you if the neighbour later claims your works caused damage, and shows the neighbour their property has been properly documented.
Structural Engineering
A written report from a registered structural engineer on the condition of your building, describing what was observed, the likely cause and basic rectification advice. It's typically the first step for remediation or rectification works when damage, movement or settlement has been found. For buildings up to 2 storeys.
Structural Engineering
A registered structural engineer visits your property or project to inspect the structure, assess the issue or proposed works, confirm the adequacy of installed works and advise you on the next steps. It's the starting point if you're seeing cracking, movement or water damage, or planning works and need early structural input before committing to a full report or design.
