Our mission is to provide high-quality, professional, and cost-effective solutions to address soil contamination and hazardous materials issues, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for our communities.

Services

We offer a range of services designed to assess, investigate, and remediate contaminated sites, as well as provide expert advice on site contamination and hazardous materials. Our services include:

Soil Classification and Sampling

We carry out thorough soil classification and sampling procedures to identify the type and extent of contamination on a given site. Our team uses industry-leading equipment and analytical techniques to collect and analyze soil samples, providing accurate and reliable results. We then issue a comprehensive report outlining our findings, which is essential for developers, builders, and homeowners to make informed decisions about site remediation and risk mitigation.

Stage 1 and Stage 2 Contamination Reports

Our team has extensive experience in preparing Stage 1 and Stage 2 Contamination Reports, which are critical for council DA approvals and compliance with NSW regulations. These reports provide a detailed assessment of the site's contamination, including the source, extent, and potential risks associated with the contamination. Our reports are tailored to meet specific client requirements and are prepared in accordance with EPA NSW Guidelines.

Hazardous Materials Audits

We conduct comprehensive hazardous materials audits to identify potential risks and liabilities on a given site. Our team specializes in asbestos, lead in paint and dust, PCBs, and SMF assessments, ensuring our clients are aware of any potential hazards and can take necessary precautions to protect their health and safety.

Site Contamination Investigation

Our team uses a range of investigative techniques, including soil and groundwater sampling, visual assessments, and geophysical surveys, to identify the source and extent of site contamination. We work closely with our clients to develop a tailored investigation plan, ensuring we gather the necessary data to provide a comprehensive understanding of the site's contamination status.

Remediation and Mitigation

We develop effective remediation and mitigation strategies to address site contamination issues, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for our clients. Our team works closely with clients to design and implement remedial measures, including soil and groundwater remediation, excavation and removal of contaminated materials, and installation of containment systems.
