Environmental consulting services assess and mitigate risks associated with construction projects, including soil contamination and regulatory compliance. Our team conducts site evaluations and provides remediation strategies for public and private sector clients. These services ensure adherence to environmental regulations while maintaining project timelines.
Geotechnical Engineering
Geotechnical engineering services evaluate subsurface conditions to design foundations and earthworks for infrastructure projects. Testing includes soil mechanics, rock properties, and slope stability assessments. Our engineers provide site-specific recommendations that enhance structural safety and prevent construction delays from unforeseen ground conditions.
Construction Materials Testing
Materials testing ensures construction materials meet specified standards through laboratory and field evaluations. We test concrete, asphalt, steel, and aggregates for strength, durability, and compliance. Certification services support quality control processes for contractors and regulatory submittals.
Special Inspection Services
Special inspection services verify construction practices meet building code requirements for structural integrity. Our inspectors monitor reinforcement placement, welding, and other critical stages. These inspections ensure public safety while maintaining alignment with Oregon and Washington building standards.

Report
I began working with NW Geotech over 4 years ago due to a complicated issue we had. Tom and team took a very methodical, quantitative and qualitative approach to measuring and understanding the nature of the issue on property and have since guided us through options for addressing. At all times, we have felt fully informed and well cared for by NW Geotech.
