If you think that a “good
foundation” is all about bricks and mortar, think again. What goes on
below your building is equally as crucial as what goes on at ground
level and up. A structurally sound development is nothing more than a
poor investment if it is set in inferior ground.
With state-of-the-art equipment and the expertise of our geotechnical
engineers, DBA provides excellent site evaluations to ensure that you
make all the correct decisions right from the start. It's not uncommon
for architects and developers to consult us prior to purchase to make
sure they're not in for any nasty surprises later on.
