OUR COMPANY

High Quality Consultancy, Providing Engineering Services.

Land Development and Civil is a dynamic engineering consultancy specialised in providing quality services throughout Auckland. Our team of engineers provide practical and cost effective solutions to a broad range of issues faced when developing land in today’s ever changing world. We are able to provide these practical and cost effective solutions though the considerable experience and technical expertise that our engineers have in both the public and private sector.

A few of the core issues we help our clients to resolve and navigate to ensure compliance with regulations are flood risk assessments, storm water management devices and engineered designs for storm water and wastewater systems. We also design compliant shared driveways to ensure safe and efficient access to new developments and can assist with your earthworks and sediment & erosion control measures.

We have an established track record of working on projects of various complexities and are widely recognised within the council offices across Auckland.

Our specialty is to work with clients from day one, and guide them through the process along the way.

We aim to meet or exceed our client’s expectations when working with them on projects. Our engineers are specialists in their fields and committed to achieving the desired end result for our clients.

OUR SERVICES

LAND DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

We work in conjunction with surveyors and planner to determine the most practical way to develop greenfields land or re-develop brownfields sites. Consideration needs to be given to planning and density requirements as well as infrastructure restrictions, flooding issues and access requirements (among other things).

Our engineers are familiar with the potential implications of funding, consenting and construction requirements and how these can affect the timing of subdivision and land development projects. We can help you assess these potential implications from the initial stages through to completion.

Specialised areas include:

  • Feasibility studies
  • Infrastructure reports
  • Engineering cost estimates
  • Project and contract management
  • Inspection of engineering works to ensure compliance

INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES

We specialise in the efficient design of infrastructure to meet your project needs. Whether this be stormwater, wastewater, water supply or roading we can ensure the design meets Council requirements as well as being practically achievable onsite.

Specialised areas include:

  • Engineering design of proposed public wastewater, stormwater and water supply extensions.
  • Assessing the capacity of existing and proposed networks
  • Firefighting water supply requirements
  • Engineering design of the alignments and gradients of new shared driveways.

STORM WATER SERVICES

We have considerable experience in providing the design of innovative stormwater solutions in a range of contexts. This includes hard infrastructure solutions as well as low-impact-design (LID) solutions depending on the situation.

Specialised areas include:

  • Stormwater management in industrial and residential sites
  • Stormwater detention and retention (re-use) to comply with SMAF regulations
  • On-site stormwater disposal and discharge
  • Design of stormwater quality treatment devices
  • Flood risk assessments and overland flow path management

ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES

The Resource Management Act (RMA) promotes the sustainable management of natural and physical resources such as land, air and water. Your development may have “effects” on the environment, but will these effects be more than minor, and can they be avoided, remedied or mitigated? Land Development and Civil can help you to navigate this legislative framework and advise how this may affect your development.

Specialised areas include:

  • Stormwater quality treatment, attenuation and re-use
  • Hydrological neutrality reports
  • Flooding effects from both flood plains and coastal inundation
  • Erosion and sediment control requirements
  • Onsite wastewater systems
