Water Engineering

Water is essential for life. Getting right the design of where our water comes from and goes to is a fundamental part of development. We have extensive experience in all facets of stormwater, water supply and wastewater, hydrogeology, reporting, and construction monitoring.

We deliver design for all aspects of three waters services including flood modelling, construction monitoring, and erosion, sediment and dust management control. Our team of environmental scientists include hydrogeologists who can find solutions when water is required for domestic or commercial use, for when dewatering needs to occur for construction and when there is a potential that groundwater may be contaminated. With regulatory requirements putting an increased emphasis on Te Mana o te Wai, the vital importance of water, we can provide thorough investigations at the start of your project to best manage the relationship between groundwater and the surrounding land.

We work with a variety of clients for residential, commercial, and industrial developments. Working together with clients and regulatory bodies we achieve smarter outcomes during both the design and construction phases.

As well as providing expert advice and solutions, we also strive for sustainable initiatives by evaluating environmental protection, economic viability and the efficient use of resources. This takes a collaborative approach within our multidisciplinary team to pull together best practice and the right expertise to develop integrated, effective and practical designs. It’s an approach that has resulted in a proven track record of innovative, cost effective and sustainable infrastructure solutions.

Our water engineering services extend to projects throughout the South Island, with capacity to offer design and construction monitoring services directly from our Queenstown, Hokitika, Nelson and Christchurch offices.
