Are you undertaking a new sub-division, duplex, commercial or industrial development. We can assist with the detailed design of earthworks, services, vehicle access, stormwater and sewers as required to achieve planning and Operational Work approval and certification. 

If you have recently undertaken 'un-approved' earthworks, works close to a watercourse or stormwater drainage, you may have recieved a 'Show Cause' notice from your local council.  This notice will often require you to submit a retrospective planning application to have the works approved and retained.  

Get in touch with us today, and so we can plan with you the next steps.

All councils, as part of new developments and sub-divisions, require that all stormwater runoff from a site does not cause downstream flooding or causes undue contamination or environmental damage.  We are experienced in developing stormwater management plans for all types of developments and projects

If you plan to build new waste water drainage as part of a dwelling or business and your site is located over 'reactive' soils (class H, E or P site classification), you are required under the Drainage Act to undertake an Articulation Design (certified by an RPEQ).  This is to ensure that the below ground pipe joints can accomodate the expected soil movement. 

Are you above to start construction and require supervision and eventually 'As Constructed' certification of the civil works (such as roads, stormwater water systems, driveways).  Our chartered engineers can get involved from day one, and help you through to final certification

Are you building a new home or business in an un-sewered area and are required to install a new waste water management system (Onsite Effluent Disposal).  We are experienced in specifying and design onsite effluent systems tailored to your development needs and the needs of the local council.

As part of your development plans, will you be constructing a new driveway, parking lot, road or crossing point over the verge.  We can provide vehicle tracking services and design of access roads and vehicle cross-overs (VXOs) to meet the required council guidelines and specifications.

If you are undertaking a new development or building project in a flood prone area, or just want a detailed understanding of flood risk to your property, we can undertaken Flood Risk Assessments and detailed modelling to support your development or give you a thorough understanding of flood risk to your property.

At Cause we believe training and preparing the next generation of engineers is part of our responsibility.  If you or your team need engineering training, professional mentoring or sponshorship we are able to assist.

Has your project come in over budget or are you just looking to save cost on your build.  We provide a unique industry service based on a 'no saving - no fee' basis.  If we successfully find value engineering oppurtunities, our fee becomes a small percentage of the construction savings found, meaning that you never risk a penny, with only scope to save money.
