Civil Engineering

LGES delivers end‑to‑end civil engineering services across NSW and Tasmania, supporting projects from early concept design through to construction and completion. With more than 25 years of industry experience, our team of engineers, designers, and drafters bring specialist expertise in road and highway design, stormwater and drainage solutions, earthworks, subdivision layouts, and associated infrastructure.

We work closely with councils, transport authorities, universities, and private developers, using advanced surveying and modelling tools to help visualise and refine designs before they are finalised. This approach ensures practical, compliant, and well‑considered outcomes that meet local authority requirements and Australian standards, while delivering long‑term value, sustainability, and positive outcomes for the communities we serve.

Structural Engineering

LGES delivers practical and compliant structural engineering solutions for residential, commercial, industrial, and public infrastructure projects across NSW and Tasmania. Our experience spans new developments, upgrades, and remedial works, including the assessment and design of buildings, retaining walls, elevated platforms, portal frame buildings, pre-cast concrete structures, reinforced concrete box culverts and structural systems supporting essential community assets. LGES also provides specialist bridge engineering services, offering design, verification, and project management in accordance with Australian Standards. Working collaboratively with councils, developers, and asset owners, we deliver clear advice and innovative solutions that prioritise safety, durability, constructability, and long‑term asset performance.

Project Management

LGES provides expert project management services, overseeing engineering projects from planning through to completion. We manage timelines, budgets, compliance, and contractor coordination, ensuring seamless execution and successful project delivery. Our approach prioritises risk mitigation, stakeholder engagement, and efficiency, ensuring projects are delivered on time and within budget while meeting the highest quality standards.

Surveying

Accurate surveying underpins the successful planning and delivery of engineering projects. LGES provides comprehensive land and infrastructure surveying services, including topographical, engineering pickup, and construction setout surveys for local government and development projects. Utilising advanced surveying technologies and proven methodologies, our team delivers precise, reliable data to support planning, design, and construction activities. We work closely with councils, engineers, and project stakeholders to ensure regulatory compliance, efficient project delivery, and informed decision‑making throughout the project lifecycle.

Bridge Inspections

LGES offers inspections that meet with the TfNSW bridge inspection procedure manual & can also provide inspections to meet with ARRB Local Roads Bridge Management or councils’ requirements.

Our experienced staff are available to carry out all levels of structural inspections inclusive of load capacity rating of concrete structures and non-destructive testing of timber structures.

We can assist with, or provide councils with a maintenance program for repairs or upgrade works. We have competent staff available for project management, contract documentation preparation & internal training of staff.

Where bridge conditions are beyond repair, LGES will suggest options for bridge replacement and provide condition reporting that will assist Council to seek funding under the bridge replacement program.

Building Design

LGES provides integrated building design and project delivery services for residential and commercial developments. Our experience includes new dwellings, alterations and additions, and commercial projects, delivering functional, compliant, and well‑coordinated designs from concept through to construction.

We offer a complete design and project management service encompassing concept design, architectural drafting, authority liaison, applications and approvals, construction documentation, and project supervision. Our team coordinates geotechnical investigations and works closely with builders and consultants to ensure constructability, efficiency, and smooth project delivery.

Utilising modern design software and 3D modelling technology, LGES produces practical and contemporary building designs that allow clients to clearly visualise the finished outcome. Supported by an in‑house team of structural engineers, civil engineers, building designers, and architectural draftspeople, we deliver coordinated solutions tailored to each project’s requirements.
