If your project needs to comply with increasingly strict environmental requirements, you can make sure it does with creative hydrogeology design solutions.

What are hydrogeology services?

Hydrogeology services involve assessing, designing and managing how groundwater interacts with land, construction and the environment. Our hydrogeology services provide the technical support and expert advice you need to meet compliance while protecting groundwater resources and community health.

Why hydrogeology matters.

Hydrogeology isn't just ground and surface water. It's about developing sustainable solutions that support our communities and a healthy environment. Through hydrogeology consulting services, we can deliver:

  • Baseline assessments before construction
  • Contaminated land assessment for regulatory compliance
  • Groundwater consulting to inform design and management solutions


Site assessment and groundwater management

If you need to thoroughly assess a project site, we can help. Our specialists support the full cycle of groundwater management from identifying, investigating and developing groundwater resources for water supply, right through to monitoring the effects of changes in groundwater level and quality. We provide:

  • Monitoring networks to track long-term impacts
  • Detailed analysis to support planning and compliance
  • Numerical modelling to evaluate groundwater flow and future risks


When Groundwater Consulting Becomes Essential

Groundwater consulting services are essential in projects where groundwater conditions influence design, construction, or environmental outcomes. Typical scenarios include:

  • Groundwater supply: developing wells for drinking water, irrigation, heating or cooling.
  • Baseline assessments: establishing site conditions before design or construction begins.
  • Contaminated land assessment: identifying and managing risks from pollutants.
  • Construction projects: tunnels, excavations, or foundations where groundwater flow may cause inflows, outflows or uplift pressures.
  • Groundwater management: creating monitoring networks, applying numerical modelling, and ensuring sustainable long-term use.
  • Regulatory compliance: supporting approvals with reliable data, reporting and technical support.


Technical support you can trust

We combine hydrogeology consulting services with practical design expertise to help your project succeed. Our team delivers expert advice and hands-on technical support to:

  • Ensure environmental compliance
  • Protect and manage groundwater resources
  • Reduce construction risk and delays
