Geotechnics Ltd. services

Imagine this:  You’ve got a big earthworks site to manage and on top of a whole range of other tasks, you’re also responsible for organising the quality control testing.  Good thing we understand the scope of large projects and the pressures that go with them. Our team are trained to take care of this part of your project for you, by either managing the testing from our offices or setting up on-site testing facilities. And you can rest assured, all our field testing is backed up by our IANZ-accredited laboratories, ensuring you don`t have to worry about this important aspect of your project.  Our team also offer construction supervision services including subgrade, footing and pile inspections to ensure your design specifications are being met. For more information on our field testing capabilities, get in touch with the team today!

Geotechnical and Civil materials testing is an art, a skill and a science; and Civil Engineering laboratory testing is in our DNA. We started almost 60 years ago testing materials on the Auckland Harbour Bridge and we’ve been doing it ever since. If you need accurate results that you can trust, then Geotechnics is your only choice - we have the best people, with unparalleled experience.

One word - Safety. The Health & Safety of our people and the people we work for and work with, is the most important thing in our business. We want our people and your people, to go home at night; back to their families, safe and sound - just like the TV ad. Not only that, underground services are complex and people’s lives can depend on them, it is therefore paramount they are protected. That’s why here at Geotechnics, we utilise the latest Ground Penetrating Radar technology and Electromagnetic tools. This allows us to locate cables, pipes and all utilities; gathering subsurface data through images without destroying the surroundings. Our utility service location procedures have been fine tuned to minimise your risk when performing ground penetrating activities.

Just putting geotechnical monitoring instruments in the ground is easy…but installing the correct geotechnical instrumentation, in the right places, to monitor the right activity and produce the right data...isn’t. We’ve been doing this for longer than anybody else in New Zealand and we’ve got the best team to do it. These guys are like the Big Bang Theory equivalent of Instrumentation. Clever, always thinking ahead and extremely industrious. They can take care of the whole thing for you, from the purchase of the gear and the installation, through to monitoring and reporting. We’ll provide you with accurate data you can trust, giving you the confidence that you’ll produce the best result for your client.

Our team is your one stop shop for pavement testing, ensuring you get the data you require. We also provide in-house Traffic Control and Underground Services Clearance options so you don`t have to, allowing you to focus on your projects, while we get the testing done.

You’ve heard it all before – Geology Rocks! And our geologists and technicians love rocks! Save time and cost by getting our guys to do the investigations for you. They will turn the reporting around quickly which allows you to do your work for your client. We’ve been doing this stuff for a long time, we’ve got all the right tools and people, so why not let us take care of it for you?

Some jobs require extra special attention and we love the challenge of new and interesting work. We have introduced a number of new technologies to the New Zealand market and are constantly on the outlook for innovative tools and techniques to help you gain competitive advantage and overcome challenges.

Our Measurement and Calibration Centre is New Zealand`s leading dimensional measurement and calibration laboratory, providing a wide range of services to the engineering and manufacturing communities.
