Geotechnical investigations for subdivisions and superlots
MGS provides geotechnical investigations and reporting for subdivisions and superlots. We plan the work around ground variability, proposed earthworks and development stages to support the information needs of each stage.

When this service helps
For staged subdivisions, ground investigations help inform earthworks and development planning. The investigation programme considers the layout, construction sequence and need for later lot-specific information.
What you receive
Geotechnical investigation findings and advice for the agreed subdivision stage. Depending on the agreed scope, this includes:
Agreed investigation coverage and observed ground variability
Earthworks and foundation considerations within scope
Advice on later verification or lot-specific investigation
Your questions, answered
Does a subdivision report provide the final classification for every future home?
Not automatically. Final levels, earthworks, building footprints and site changes can create a need for additional assessment.
What should I send with my enquiry?
Send your site address, proposed works, available plans or reports, access details and preferred timing. You can enquire before all plans are available.
When can the work be arranged?
Tell us your preferred timing and any access constraints. We’ll confirm the site visit and reporting timeframes for the agreed work before it begins.
