Accredited SUI across the Sutherland Shire, from Cronulla and Miranda residential builds to Caringbah commercial and council infrastructure. No job too small. No project too large. From small contractors to major infrastructure.
The Sutherland Shire sits on Hawkesbury sandstone from Sutherland and Engadine down to the Royal National Park, with the Kurnell peninsula and Cronulla on sand. Sandstone keeps services shallow and rock-bound, which makes radar effective and trenching expensive, so a lot of the older networks around Sutherland, Jannali and Gymea follow the path of least resistance rather than the plan. Caringbah and Taren Point carry the Shire's industrial services and the Kurnell peninsula the former refinery and fuel terminal infrastructure.
Ausgrid supplies the electricity, Sydney Water the water and sewer, including the Cronulla treatment plant and its trunk mains, Jemena the gas and Sutherland Shire Council the stormwater. The Princes Highway and the Illawarra rail line through the Shire are Transport for NSW corridors.
The same accredited crew and AS 5488-2022 report across Sutherland Shire and NSW, whether it's a single locate or a tier-one program.
Detection, tracing and marking of underground services using electromagnetic and ground-penetrating radar, to the accuracy each site demands.
Engineering-grade utility survey and drafting to AS 5488-2022, delivering 12D/DWG models, BIM-ready 3D strings and GDA2020 deliverables.
Safe vacuum potholing to positively identify services and achieve the highest Quality Level (QL-A), without damaging the asset.
GPR concrete imaging before cutting, coring or drilling. Locates rebar, post-tension cables, conduits and voids. Radiation-free, no site shutdown.
Push-rod and crawler camera inspection, connectivity mapping and condition reporting for pipes up to 2 m in diameter.
USTs, concrete substructures, voids and rock seams, plus unmarked-grave, forensic and archaeological investigations.
Yes. Sandstone and sand are the best ground for ground penetrating radar, so plastic pipes, conduits and old stormwater lines are usually found as well as the conductive services traced by EM.
Yes. The former refinery and fuel terminal lands carry pipelines and tanks that need subsurface investigation before redevelopment, and we report them to AS 5488-2022 with coordinates for the environmental and demolition teams.
Ausgrid for electricity, Sydney Water for water and sewer, Jemena for gas, Telstra and NBN Co for communications and Sutherland Shire Council for stormwater, with Transport for NSW assets on the Princes Highway and the rail line.
The Shire is around an hour from our Lindfield office, and standard jobs are usually scheduled within a few business days, with 24/7 emergency call-outs.
